Image
evin Bosco followed the Golden Rule of job hunting: Already have a job while looking for another. As a Georgia Pacific employee some 20 years ago, Bosco had harbored the idea of starting his own cleaning and restoration business. He studied the industry and even worked on his days off at a company for free to get his foot in the door and learn the trade. Bosco liked it and decided to strike out on his own in 1999. That’s when T.D. Carpet & Tile Clean was born. Bosco specializes in water removal on a 24-hour basis and flood restoration in addition to cleaning. “We do commercial and residential,” Bosco said of the company’s versatility. “I am available 24 hours for water damage and some of my commercial work is done at night.” Having flexible hours is one thing, but Bosco understands what has driven his business. “Customer service is No. 1,” he said. “That’s what has carried us through. The only thing I take out from a job is the dirt.” When asked about busi...

How to prevent cold from damaging water pipes - Monroe Evening News

Here are some tips from home restoration company AdvantaClean to protect water pipes: There's already been one water main break in City of Monroe. Here's that report. This week’s bitter cold can wreak havoc with pipes in buildings. They could freeze and burst, leading to a call to the plumber and water damage in the house. Here are some tips from home restoration company AdvantaClean to protect pipes: ■ Insulate exposed water lines. Homeowners can buy insulated sleeves from the hardware store that slip easily around exposed pipes in the garage, attic, basement or outside. Pipes located in these areas are more susceptible to freezing. ■ Seal leaks or cracks around pipes in the bathroom or kitchen. Cold air can flood through the tiniest crevices. Insulate or caulk around pipes to keep them from freezing. ■ Leave bathroom and kitchen cabinet doors open. This will allow warm room air to circulate around the pipes when cold weather invades. Also, let faucets drip to reduc...

Flood victim says Orkin treated her home for mold, Orkin disagrees - WBRZ

Image
BATON ROUGE - A flood victim says she's stuck with a moldy mess even after she paid a professional to treat her home for bugs and mold. Cheryl Davis has been paying her mortgage and her utility bills for the last two years on a home she can't live in. She says it wasn't supposed to be this way after she hired Orkin to spray for mold. "I can't imagine anyone else going through this," she said. "They don't want to take responsibility for it." Tuesday morning, Davis sat in her FEMA-issued Manufactured Housing Unit sifting through documents with 2 On Your Side's Brittany Weiss. The MHU sits on her property, in front of a structure she called home for years. In August 2016, she got four-and-a-half feet of water in her house. The place was gutted soon after and that's when she says she discovered termite damage in the bathroom. She contacted Orkin to schedule an appointment to treat the damage which she thought included mold. "I said...

A $20-million-plus effort to restore protective berms along Flagler County's coastline, one of the longest and most multifaceted projects in the county's history, entered its home stretch this month. Work crews have mounted a steady march south along the shoreline for the past year, dumping more than 750,000 tons of sand to patch up Flagler’s battered dune line, which was devastated by hurricanes Matthew and Irma in 2016 and 2017, respectively. On Jan. 10, those crews finished crafting dunes in Beverly Beach — the project’s southern end. Varn Park, a popular beach access point that was shut down for equipment staging in November, has been reopened. Now comes the tricky part. Crews backtracked to the county’s northern border to refortify sand along the 1.6-mile stretch o...
