MO based Pride Cleaning And Restoration, Inc is pleased to inform the Troy community that their homes can be restored to pre-damage conditions with their team's help. The company, which specializes in fire damage restoration, has built a reputation for taking the worst cases of fire damage and making the affected properties both habitable and functional once more. Fires are among the most destructive forces a home can contend with, and many homeowners have unfortunately discovered that the right conditions can create a roaring blaze from what may have once been a minor flame. The speed at which a fire can grow and spread out of control may be shocking to any who are unfamiliar with the subject, but Pride Cleaning And Restoration has seen the aftermath of many cases where a small fire got out of hand. As a result, they strongly advise their community to step back and let the Fire Department take over if their initial attempts to control a fire (such as with a fire extinguisher) pr...

DetroitNews-Unknown Countertops and flooring are two of your home's surfaces that receive plenty of use and, often, abuse. That means they also require regular cleaning and maintenance to keep these horizontal surfaces looking their best. Unfortunately, there isn't one cleaning product that will work on all surfaces. "When cleaning countertops, it is important to use a cleaner that is made specifically for the type of surface you are cleaning," said Gregg Laviolette, owner of Stone Restoration Services, (248) 220-1672, (srsdetroit.com). Laviolette said surfaces like marble, granite, limestone, quartz or slate need a cleaner with the proper pH balance so it doesn't damage the surface, such as Aquamix from Customer Building Products, (custombuildingproducts.com). Another company is Stone Care International, (stonecare.com). Conversely, he said a more generic cleaner like Simple Green, (simplegreen.com) can be used to clean Corian or Formica. Laviolette said it is al...

Not a week goes by that I don't get a question at the Ask Tim page on AsktheBuilder.com about cleaning this or that household surface. As it turns out, I happen to know lots about cleaning things. I attribute much of this to my formative years working at Skyline Chili in Cincinnati. I worked there after school during high school and most of college. I became an expert string mopper. You wouldn't think there's an art to moping a floor, but trust me, there is. I found out the best way to get grease off surfaces. I also washed tens of thousands of dishes, polished chrome and discovered the magic way to get windows crystal clear. This time of year, though, I get inundated with requests about how to clean algae from every conceivable outdoor surface. It might be green or black algae. It might be simple mildew. Let's start with why algae thrives. My college major is geology, not biology, but I can tell you that algae needs food and water. It's not much different than you ...

(WXYZ) — If you are planning to do any construction at your home, prepare for sticker shock. The National Home Builders Association says increasing prices could cause the price of an average new single family home to increase by more than $18,600. Source: TradingEconomics.com Last May, lumber prices hit record highs, and then timber! They fell. Now: bad news for do-it-yourselfers and builders — they are building back up. At Hines Drive and Ann Arbor Trail, Infinity Homes Founder Rino Soave is building the Park Row apartments in Westland. This is how he describes lumber prices since the pandemic started: "It was like a rollercoaster." And when you look at the data, you can see why. According to Random Lengths Lumber, prices hit more than $1,500 per thousand board feet in May. It then dropped in August to below $400. And now, once again is up big time, costing more than $1,000 per thousand board feet. It is driving...

Hello everyone! I have a real treat for everyone today as it's been a deck I've wanted to write about for a little while, but am finally getting around to. To explain, let's talk a bit about player psychographic profiles as famously outlined by MaRo. There are predominately three different types of players: Timmy/Tammy, Johnny/Jenny, and Spike. Timmy/Tammy is all about winning BIG. They like playing flash spells and completely stomping the opponent. If you liked winning with Ultimatums in previous Standard, you may be or have streaks of Timmy/Tammy. Spikes are pretty well known, especially if you play a lot of Arena. They are the people who are always trying to win using the best deck, the latest tech, whatever it takes. These I believe are the two most common types of players around as it's winning big or just winning. However, there's still Johnny/Jenny. Johnny/Jenny enjoy their wins, but they want to win in style . It doesn't have to be big, it doesn...

Tony Luong Tyson Bottenus in his home in Providence, Rhode Island "I honestly can't believe you're alive," one of my doctors told me a few months ago. "It really makes no sense." I was sitting with my fiancé in an exam room in the infectious disease wing of Massachusetts General Hospital, as I have countless times over the past four years. I was hearing again how the toxic black mold in my brain defies expectations and baffles my physicians. I've fought this fungal infection with ten brain surgeries, five spinal taps, and two sets of cyborg-like tubes implanted to connect my brain's ventricles to my abdomen. I've had a stroke, and with it serious impairments that have required me to relearn how to walk, talk, and read. None of these procedures has removed th...
