"We hired Advantage Remediation Services to address a mold and radon issue in our recently purchased home, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. Joel did an outstanding job—he successfully reduced the radon levels to a safe range and thoroughly remediated the mold. His attention to detail was impressive, and he took the time to explain every step of the process, ensuring we felt confident in his work. He also cleaned out duct work as well as the entire house. After the post-remediation testing, we were thrilled to confirm that our home was safe to occupy. I highly recommend Advantage Remediation Services for anyone in need of professional and reliable remediation solutions. "

All your masonry needs from new brick, block or stonework.. Retaining walls..chimney repair..whole house repointing..lintel replacement..step cracks ..mortar matching..no job too big or small
"A Cut Above many other Contractors! We had needed brick pointing done on our home for a few years. We are also in the middle of a renovation project for our game room and that included the installation of a sliding glass door where a window was. The door install required that a steel lintel be moved up to accommodate the height of the new door. We were very fortunate that we called Michener Chimney and Masonry to come and have a look. They came out in a timely fashion and gave their estimate to us in just a few days. Once we agreed to get the work done, Jim and his team from Michener began the work quickly. They were professional and friendly and did a wonderful job on all of the aspects of the project. Communication with them was easy, clear and accurate. We would highly recommend anyone needing brick or masonry work to use Michener Chimney and Masonry. Thank you Jim for doing such an amazing job and keeping our renovation project on-time and with your quality craftsmanship!"

"We have an old carpet which had never been cleaned. It had pet stains. He explained that it may not be possible to get the stains out because there were old stains. He pre-treated & steamed as best he could. Worked pretty well. Gave us booties to wear over shoes while carpet was wet. We also bought his carpet stain cleaner to use for new stains. (We have a cat & an old dog with kidney issues.) Once carpet dried we could see some of stains wick up which can happen. We have solid beige color carpet. But it still looks a lot better than it did! Jim was courteous & professional. He fit us in his schedule the day after I contacted him because he had a to re-schedule a customer. Otherwise he was booked all the following week.

"The cleaning itself was great, really top-notch. Getting ahold of Ashley for anything (schedule change, additional cleaning, etc.) was impossible. I tried calling and emailing multiple times over 2 years. Responses were rare, and if they occurred it was generally so delayed that it no longer mattered. We have decided to change providers due to this issue."

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) states that air duct cleaning is not required unless visible issues such as mold buildup, rodent droppings, or excessive dust are present. When such conditions exist, cleaning becomes essential to protect indoor air quality and maintain HVAC efficiency. This approach minimizes potential health risks and extends the system’s life.
Air ducts must be cleaned every three to five years as required by NADCA to preserve system efficiency and indoor air quality. The EPA insists that cleaning is necessary only when significant issues such as mold, pest infestations, or heavy dust accumulation are evident. Annual inspections by a certified professional promptly address any emerging concerns.
The ideal seasons for air duct cleaning are spring and fall. Cleaning during these periods prepares your HVAC system for the demands of both winter heating and summer cooling. These seasons provide moderate weather conditions that enable efficient service completion while minimizing disruption, ensuring your system performs at its peak.
Professional air duct cleaning takes a fixed duration of two to five hours, depending on the home’s size and the complexity of the duct system. Smaller residences with standard ductwork complete the service in two hours, while larger homes with extensive ducts require up to five hours. Additional repairs may extend this duration.
To prepare for professional air duct cleaning, ensure all vents are unobstructed by moving nearby furniture and clearing pathways. Secure any pets in a safe area and confirm that your HVAC system units are easily accessible for technician inspection. Proper preparation contributes to a higher quality service outcome and prevents delays, allowing the cleaning process to proceed efficiently.
