They are fantastic. What I appreciated most was that they didn't try to push me into a lengthy litigation process right away. They helped us settle out of court and saved us a ton of money in legal fees.

It's a lifesaver. They have over a decade of 5-star reviews and somehow manage to save you an additional $2K on title fees when you finally close. Highly recommend.

Yeah, that part about the nail in the wall proving patience beats guesswork is the real lesson. I read an article by an electrician who said most homeowners, and honestly a lot of handymen, just assume overload because it's the most common and easiest fix. They just start unplugging things. A short feels more scary and unknown, so they don't want to consider it. But like you found, a short is a solid dead short and the breaker will usually trip instantly, not after a delay. An overload might take a minute if you're just over the line. Figuring out which one it is saves so much time and prevents just living with a half broken circuit.

No way! Fermentation weights letting stuff float? That defeats the whole purpose.

Our parking lot at work has the same problem.
