"BYBIS did an amazing job with our inspection! T.J. went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of the home was reviewed, and found so many issues that we definitely did not catch ourselves and were not disclosed by the seller. We felt very prepared to negotiate the best price for the house, and his comprehensive report is a resource I'm sure we'll reference for many years to come as we learn more about our home. An inspection is not a "check the box" task when buying a home. It is worth it to seek out, and pay for an inspector who has your best interest at heart, and will take the time to provide you as much information as possible. Like with anything, you can find a cheap inspector who will "check the box", but there is tremendous value in finding a quality inspector who takes the time to do it right (and teach you along the way). TJ was definitely that kind of inspector."

"Steve and Josh came out today to replace the grille and some insulation in my bathroom. They both knew exactly how to go about dealing with the odd size and dimensions of the grille and the opening and also how to go about making sure that the mildew would not reoccur in this setting. They worked together well, were professional, knew their stuff, cleaned up after themselves and were friendly to work with. I'm so glad they came out and got my situation sorted out.

"UPDATE - While there were issues with the repairs to the oven, the owner of the company called me personally to express his sincere regret for having any problems and assure me that excellent customer service is very important to the company. He ensured that the work was done to my satisfaction, refunded any money previously paid and offered a free inspection in the future should I need assistance. At the end of the day, things happen in life, and the true character of a person or company is how you deal with these challenges. I can honestly and sincerely state that Uptown Appliance Repairs stands by its service and I will gladly contact them in the future for any appliance needs.

Technician advised that initial diagnosis was wrong. The Cooling Fan Assembly needs to be changed. 5. 31-January - Received revised quote - $1,080.34. The part is $608.00, though Sears Parts Direct provided a parts quote of $137.20. Nicole of Uptown stated that the 343% markup is to cover warranty, expedited shipping and that Uptown only buys OEM parts from the manufacturer. 6. 12-February - Service to install new Cooling Fan Assembly.

Technician called to cancel, stating that it takes two people to replace the parts. 8. 15-March - Service to install new Cooling Fan Assembly. Technician called to state that part is broken and would have to reorder. 9. 20-March – Call received from Uptown, stating that parts have been received and service needs to be set. I instructed Uptown to contact tenants. 10. 26-March - Appointment to install parts, after 5:30pm 11. 26-March - Company owner calls, stating that Uptown does not work after 5:30pm. Implies that delays are due to tenants not being responsive or available during working hours. He stated that, if the tenants cannot be available during working hours, he will refund the deposit of $600.00. I told him that I did not want the refund, I wanted the appliance repaired. 12.

Wood Stove Inspection questions, answered by experts

When built right, fireplaces increase the value of your home. Fireplaces are both functional and aesthetically pleasing; home buyers will usually respond to the charm fireplaces can add. The only scenarios that could lead to a fireplace depreciating a property are the following: if it’s in need of constant or immediate repair, is unusable, or isn’t up to code.

The damper, located just above the firebox, can open or close the chimney flue. The damper should remain closed unless there’s a fire burning in the fireplace. Closing the damper prevents energy loss through the chimney and cold air from seeping into the home during the winter. Opening the damper helps maintain airflow when there is a fire and prevents smoke and gases from venting into the house.

DIY is not recommended due to safety and venting requirements. Professional installation ensures proper operation and compliance with codes.

Based on the current national fuel prices, running a gas fireplace costs about $0.35 per hour if it uses natural gas or $0.62 per hour if it runs on propane. However, these figures depend on fuel prices in your area. For one heating season, it costs an average of $400 to $640 to run a gas fireplace, depending on your location and how often you use your fireplace.

Chimney crowns should be at least 2 inches thick at their thinnest point. If the crown is thinner than 2 inches, it’s more likely to be damaged and allow water to seep into the chimney.
