"Lesson learned. Always get an estimate. BEFORE the work is done. At least a digital copy. Arrangements for the project were made, with some one named Lynn, for the company to send someone to complete the work. We were quoted over the phone 4500-5000 which included a mold test. A sub contractor with an entirely different company (National Mold Company) was sent. When the contractor arrived, he stated that the job would be much more simpler than first thought. This led us to believe that the job would cost less, no. All said and done, they charged $5500. All said and done, it's almost like no work was done. The stains and the smell are still there. Only one actual board was taken upon the attic room. The ceiling in the bedroom was primed and painted but are still visible and have a funky smell. At this point I'm going to. Do what we should have done; Do the job ourselves. Just now with $5500 less dollars in our pockets. A detailed receipt was not given even though it was requested."

Higher ground is a holistic drainage company for residential and commercial properties. We specialize in renovations and maintenance for every thing affected by rainwater. In short if rainwater touches it we install repair and maintain it. The roof, gutter, flashing and drainage systems on your home are its armor against the elements. A weakness in this armor leaves your home open to damage causing leaks, foundation seepage and landscaping washout. Protect your home by having professionals maintain your gutters regularly. Our technicians are highly trained in spotting damage and wear before it becomes costly. At Higher Ground we do not sell a product, we sell solutions and results wrapped in polished customer service unparalleled in our industry. When it comes to your home maintenance and renovation budget know that everything drop counts.

"In the end, not well. We needed a leaking gutter seam fixed at our vacation house because it was dripping on our deck and ruining our stain. Higher Ground came out and made a repair in June 2022, which supposedly fixed the leak. We then arranged to have our deck restained. Since this is a vacation house, we weren't able to go back to the house until August 2022. At that point we discovered that the seam was still leaking onto our newly restained deck. We contacted Higher Ground via email and phone to try to get them to come out and finish the fix. They were not very responsive and got a little nasty about only allowing 10 days for "quality control issues" on their work, even after I explained that we are not down at the house full time to be able to see that it wasn't really fixed. So they refused to make good on their work. From my perspective, I paid for a leak repair and did not get a leak repair."

Need an electrician in Knoxville? Or an electrical contractor for residential, commercial and industrial electrical installations and repairs? Then call us today. We provide a full range of electrical services for your home and business at an up-front flat-rate price, and offer 24/7 service. Renowned for courtesy and attention to detail, our expert team is also available for new construction contracts. We serve all of the Knoxville, TN area. The Right Way - The Only Way.

"The technician came to check on it and was very nice and polite. He was able to trouble shoot wiring and put in the new dimmer switch but said that the problem was the chandelier and not the wiring so it needed to be repaired. He said at then end of the visit that I should just give them and call after it was repaired and they would come by and hang the chandelier back up as part of the service call. I called today and different technician came by and wanted to charge an additional $290 to hang the fixture. This would have made a total of almost $600 plus the cost to repair the chandelier. I realize that all rates on everything have gone up but this is ridiculous. I have a friend who renovates houses that will hang it for me. I have nothing personally against this company...but the they should complete the job they started without having to charge double. I asked them to have the manager, Jason, call which he did but his answer was basically "sorry...it is what it is". I could either pay for another service call or leave my chandelier on the dining room table. Bottom line: Be sure if you hire this company and they do not complete the job on the visit you will be charged again for the second service call."

“At The Ready Family we create a professional, enjoyable service experience while protecting and beautifying the assets of our commercial and residential clients using quality coatings applications so our customers may have a better return on investment and quality of life.”

"Terrible company that does not stand behind their work. The owner Ken is nothing short of a bald faced liar. I had this company do 2 different commercial jobs and they screwed them both up. One they fixed after we chased them for months and the other they refused to fix even after it became apparent that their crew hadn't cleaned or prepped the walls properly which caused the paint to start flaking off within a month or so of the completion date. Ken was full of hot air and excuses and even tried to blame Sherwin Williams paint for their subpar work. They have been paid in full and yet they still refuse to fix their mistake. Classic example of a company that doesn't desire to be in business."

Water and Smoke Damage Repair questions, answered by experts

All of the components of stucco are non-combustible, so the siding material won’t ignite or spread fire to the interior of your home. However, it also expands and contracts with changes in temperature, so it will crack from long exposure to heat. Eventually, fire will spread through those cracks. Still, stucco is one of the best siding materials for fire protection and can keep you and your family safe for an hour, on average.

Yes, many HVAC professionals provide emergency furnace repair services, especially in cold seasons.

Pricing a fire-damaged house is tricky, and it’s best to involve some professionals. First, get a comprehensive repair estimate from a fire damage restoration expert. Next, have a real estate agent get you an as-repaired value for the home, which represents what the house would be worth if fully repaired. Subtract the repair estimate from the as-repaired value to get the as-is value.

Baking soda is an effective fire reduction method. However, flour and baking powder are very dangerous around flames. Flour is flammable and it can also conduct electricity. The combination can cause serious injury from electrical shock and worsen the situation by adding fuel to the fire. Baking powder is also not an option as it's also highly flammable. 

Homeowner’s insurance will usually cover fire damage restoration unless you or someone in your home started the fire purposefully or if negligence was the underlying cause. In all other cases, including electrical fires, accidental cooking fires, and gas fires, you’ll need to pay a deductible, but the rest of the costs should be covered. Once you have the fire out and the damage has stopped spreading, contact your insurance company to file a claim and get fast approval for remediation.
