"Very efficient in his inspection. I would highly recommend his services to anyone. I could not have asked for a more detailed inspection than what we received. The report with photos was extremely helpful. He went through the report with us in a way that we could understand everything clearly. We appreciate your service Chase."
"Great! I had 3 Foundation repair companies inspect. FSS was the only company that demonstrated integrity and stated my home was within tolerance standards and no repairs needed at this time. The other companies recommend repairs. I highly recommend FSS due to their integrity to not push unneeded repairs on me!"
"Want to go on record to say that service was excellent from initial contact and a thorough timely evaluation and appraisal with supporting documentation. I found the work to be very professional and was done in an expedient fashion. Company was very transparent in pricing and I found their actual pricepoint to be more than fair for the final rendered report. That said, I would gladly use this company again if I had the need."

"Our air-conditioner broke down right at the beginning of summer, with two disabled individuals in the home it was not a good situation. I called American home Shield and they had a repair company out the very next morning. Remember, this is during the time of year when most heating and air-conditioning companies are very busy. The inspection was prompt and in no time the service technicians were given permission to start the work. In no time the air-conditioner was up and running, no they didn't replace it, but the Warranty did exactly what it supposed to do take care of a major expense in a prompt and efficient way."
"If you have a leaky basement or are thinking about building a new house with a basement, don’t even consider using anyone except Willie and The Basement Kings. We rebuilt a lake house in 2012 that was destroyed in a wildfire, and the walkout basement flooded every spring. The builder spent thousands of dollars trying to fix it, but it flooded eight times in five years. I found The Basement Kings on Angie’s List, and Willie met me at the lake house the next day. He thoroughly inspected the basement and told me exactly what the problems were and how to fix them. Willie has an impeccable work ethic. He and his crew finished their work today. We have a lifetime guarantee that the basement will stay dry. He took photos of the work every day and texted them to my husband. It was hard, tedious, dirty work, but Willie takes pride in doing the job right, and his price was fair for the amount of work and materials involved. This guy eats, sleeps and dreams about basements. SO glad we hired him. You will be too!"

Tiny homes may depreciate and be more challenging to sell because of their size, customization, and unique space. If your tiny home is on wheels, depreciation can happen in the same way that cars and RVs do. If your tiny home isn’t structurally sound, the resale value will also be lower.
Any unexplained smell in your house should be investigated. However, some home odors are "red flag" worrisome because they pose immediate health and safety risks. Odors should be taken seriously when accompanied by headaches, nausea, or lightheadedness. If you smell an egg-like aroma, this is probably natural gas. You should leave the home immediately, and contact your gas company.
No, home improvement loan rates typically do not drop during certain times of the year. Interest rates go up and down based on economic conditions rather than on the time of the year. Some banks may offer slight rate discounts around the same holidays every year, but this is a marketing decision rather than a decision based on the time of the year. If you want to use a home improvement loan to fund your remodeling project, the best option is to shop around at different banks for the best rates.
To determine if your house has dampers, inspect the ductwork for levers or handles, particularly near the main trunk line of your HVAC unit. Dampers are typically found in homes with ducted heating and cooling systems, but not all houses have them, as some builders may omit them to save on construction costs. If you cannot find any dampers or wish to have them installed, it is best to contact a local HVAC professional. While you can install them yourself, it may require significant work and could involve a partial air duct replacement, potentially costing $1,000 or more.
If your home has a forced-air HVAC system, it will also have HVAC duct parts. Air ducts are connected to an HVAC unit and deliver heated or cooled air to each room; your heating and AC wouldn’t work without ductwork.
However, if your house has a boiler or radiator system for heating and doesn’t have central AC, you probably don’t have ductwork installed.
