Regarding the casement sash, as it turns out, it had been redesigned by the Mfg and the first Hometown install team indicated it would need to either go back or require a custom retrofit. The casement windows are approx 18 yrs old. About a week later I received a call from Hometown that the window would only need a new type of weather strip and that would solve the issue with the design change. I had asked the first team to make sure I could get the sash ahead of time before the install, in order for me to prime and paint the interior portion. Unfortunately, that communication didn't take place and I never was able to pre-finish the sash. As it urns out when the weather stripping finally did arrive for the sash, a different team came out, to install the 2 windows without scaffolding and I raised a concern when I asked this. However, the 2nd team said it wasn't necessary and was able to easily fit the bay window glass in place and indicated the initial team should have done earlier when the bay window was available and I was waiting for the new weather stripping. All in all the work done was good and the 2 windows are now in place. I'm waiting for the first very cold day to confirm the casement is sealing properly. I'm sure if I do have an issue, HomeTown will help find a solution. I think this was just a case of miscommunication by the initial team of installers and their office "},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/wi/beaver-dam/hometown-glass-and-improvements%2C-inc-reviews-7985922.htm"},"position":5},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"Artisan Construction","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"WI","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Jean W."},"reviewBody":"Talked to Neil on the phone the night before, he said he was looking forward to doing the work...very good sign I had a winner! Neil got there about 5 minutes before he was supposed to be there. He asked me what I wanted to do first, which was the gutters. He got right to work, cleaning and then putting on the gutter caps. He mitered the corners of the gutter caps also, making it a very neat appearance! I was concerned about the downspouts being clear and he made sure downspouts worked. I gave him a list for the rest of the things and right down the line he did them: re-attached mailbox to pole, installed bird feeder pole, hung 2 pictures, replaced furnace filter, replaced water filter in basement, replaced broken toilet seat, fixed pull out drawer in kitchen, took out middle console on front seat of car & replaced with another console. I gingerly asked him if he would/could do them, but he did not refuse anything I asked him to fix, knew how!! Neil was amazing! There wasn't anything he could not do that I asked, he was very courteous, listened to what I needed. I gave him the things to replace, but had supplies I didn't have (i.e. wall anchors, etc). He also was very reasonable, I was happy, and he was worth every penny!! I even gave him an electric scooter that needed a tune up to take home and look at, he will look at it and give me an estimate on repairs.

He yelled at me when I asked him questions and when I told him that I did not like the look of the repairs he was recommending and was wondering if there was an alternate method. He said that I seem to think I know it all alreay and obviously dont want his opinion and threatened to leave. At the start of his evaluation he said that the repairs needed were not all that extensive then after talking with a contractor in the basement privately he changed his approach and added a lot more repairs to his report. He then went behind my back and disclosed information to the seller that was supposed to be between him and I since I hired and paid him. He also convinced the seller that he is the only non-biased person in the area capable of performing a drain tile test which is untrue. I found 3 other Home inspection outfits who are not associated with contractors that were qualified and capable to perform the test for half the cost he wanted to charge me. I now walked away from the home my family and I have been looking two years to find and fell in love with. It was a huge mistake hiring Chuck Weber. He is not an engineer as I was lead to believe nor has he ever worked on a basement foundation in his carreer as far as I know. His whole business is presenting plans that he found on the Wisconsin Assocation of Foundation Repair Proffessionals website which anyone can look up and print out themselves for free!

They completed the work quickly and successfully in a timely manner. Also there was never any mess left behind. They did all the clean up. Should the need arise we will continue to work with Alex from Martins Plumbing."

"My chest freezer broke down and I did not want to buy a new one since I could not afford the same size. I reached out to appliance parts pro and they were confident that what I ordered would fix my problem. $200 in parts later and I now have a broken freezer on my porch and am still paying the loan to this terrible company. They just want you to order parts and try them because they know you can't return them. I hate this company with every fiber of my being and will make sure that anyone that has a broken appliance will not use them.

Grill Repair questions, answered by experts
Depending on the materials and conditions of your house, flashing has a life span of 15 to 50 years. To ensure its longevity, schedule an inspection for your chimney and roof each year. A pro can quickly assess its condition and recommend repairs.
Yes, a drip edge is necessary on a metal roof, according to the International Residential Code (IRC). Drip edge flashing prevents water from dripping onto and behind your fascia board, which prevents the board from rotting and reduces the risk of water damage behind it. On gable ends, you can either install drip edge flashing or gable-end flashing to avoid the same issues.
You’ll be in the best position to negotiate a hail damage claim if you thoroughly document the damage the hail caused to your property, file a claim immediately, and seek legal advice. It’s a good idea to keep images of your non-damaged property; that way, you have something to compare the damage to. As with many things, talking with a legal representative is the best way to make sure your interests are protected.
Regular cleaning, promptly repairing minor issues, ensuring proper drainage, and using rust-resistant coatings help prevent recurring damage.
Yes, many services provide waterproofing and sealing to protect against moisture and weather damage.
