If I have an overflowing toilet, what should I do?
You need to stop the flow of water immediately, use towels and cloths to lay on the ground and then remove the toilet tank's lid, there is a flapper valve near its bottom center, which you need to push down and lift the float. In case the problem persists, shut off the water at the toilet supply valve while holding on to the float, once done, get help from a professional plumber. Often, toilets also get clogged, use a toilet plunger and exert pressure from slow to fast in a paced manner until the clog is dislodged, large amounts of water should be soaked with a wet/dry vacuum if possible. Smaller spills should also be dried up to prevent the development of molds. Remember this incidents can be avoided with regular proper maintenance by a professional plumber.
Are there certain fixes I can take care of myself before calling a plumbing service?
If you are dealing with plumbing issues like dripping, leaks, etc., there are certain minor things you can take care of before your plumber arrives that might save you from a bigger disaster. Know the location of your main cut-off valve for your home so that you can cut the water off if something goes wrong immediately before you have help at hand. There are certain things you can keep handy at home that will help you. Several kinds of tapes, like duct tape and electrical tape can be used to wrap around different leak sizes. For joints and fittings, you can use epoxy which makes a very tight temporary seal, there are also pipe clamps, hose clamps, C-clamp and blocks or Teflon tape that would come in handy on emergencies.
How do I prevent my pipes from freezing and bursting in extremely cold temperatures?
During those frigid days, maintain heat at 70 degrees, if you have had freezing issues earlier, keep a faucet trickling as this will keep water from freezing, always check underneath the sinks, bathroom cabinets, and all faucets properly. If pipes are frozen, quickly heat the area to preclude pipes from breaking, leave cabinet doors open. Pipes located on outside walls must be insulated, and homes should be frequently checked for drafts, also ensure your carbon monoxide detectors function properly and place them near the furnace area. You can get a plumbing service to install Antifreeze in your heating system as well, if your property is vacant, make sure the temperature is set at 68 degrees.

What are some of the typical home electrical problems that I may face?
Common problems you might face involve light bulbs, light switches, and light fixtures.

Why do I need electrical service and not simply do my electrical maintenance?
You must always go for a professional electrician as they will always be up to date with the current electrical code in most set ups, this is crucial because if you decide to go to the lengths and expenses of electrical work you must ensure you abide by the current requirements, moreover, when you opt for a professional, you can be assured they will purchase the correct material in the optimum quantity as to create minimum waste and hence save your costs in the long run. Above all, you will always have the risk of electrocution and burns that might occur while doing electrical installations and repairs yourself.

Do I need whole home surge protection in my home?
Homes today are getting more and more advanced with the addition of newer and more sophisticated electronic technologies than it has ever been. We are getting more and more dependent on them and continually looking for means to make life simpler with more such additions. Whole home surge protection helps provide substantial protection to all the electrical equipment in your home from surges and spikes that might come from outside or even inside your home. They safeguard all the devices in your home, refrigerators, freezers, washers, dryer dishwashers, coffee makers, and anything else that would otherwise not come with traditional protection. Whole home surge protectors are therefore recommended to be installed in all homes to protect all the electronics.

How much does a furniture assembly service ideally cost?
When you choose a furniture assembly service provider, you must have an idea about the cost of such services. The cost of the furniture assembly service depends on various factors such as location, item size, item delivery and complexity of the project and therefore, varies accordingly. On an average, $100 is the cost for assembling a furniture item similar to a bed frame. Most furniture assembly service providers ask for a minimum price ranging between $30 and $75. Some of the service providers charge on an hourly basis with an average rate of about $35 while some charge flat rates for each single furniture piece.
Why should I opt for professional furniture assembly services instead of DIY?
When you try to assemble your furniture yourself (even assuming that the furniture comes with a well-defined manual), you are always subjecting yourself to a certain degree of risk. Assuming that you are not a trained workman, the use of screwdrivers, nails, and other assembly tools could be a source of potential danger. You can also waste a lot of precious time assembling furniture and, if done wrong, waste more time reassembling it. At Talk To Bruno, we make sure our work teams use high-quality equipment that is safe, sanitized, and competent apart from using safety gear that enhances their protection.

What exactly is a smart home?
Smart home makes use of technologies to make life easier for you. You can use your Smartphone, for instance, to control your home lighting, air conditioning, fridge, microwave, heating system and even windows and doors. To go a step further, automation makes it easy to control all your domestic devices and, importantly, use AI to save energy. For instance, so long as you are in a room the lights and AC will stay switched on but when you leave and do not return after a preset time then the lights and AC will switch off. Similarly, you could have smart security devices that will recognize people registered with the system and raise an alarm should a stranger enter the premises. Your AC, heating system and humidifier system could be programmed to provide a perfectly comfortable internal ambience. Lights could be brightened or dimmed according to the activity you are engaged in. You can program in advance when the microwave should switch on and switch off. You can use your Smartphone to remotely monitor your house and control devices such as switching on the AC ten minutes or so before you will return home.
What exactly do you offer by smart home services?
We do not directly provide any Smart Home services. We are a service platform and bring together users and service providers. We are involved to the extent of providing an information platform so that you know how to choose a service provider and we are engaged to provide assurance of integrity of services and to see you get a fair deal, you can browse categories or search for specific smart home service providers. You can get in touch with them, talk with them, ask for a quote and initiate the process of supply and installation. We vet each service provider and provide their details on our site so you know clearly what to expect.
Can you explain about different types of smart home automation?
Smart home automation is an umbrella term. For example, you can decide to go with lighting automation. This is one part of it. In such instance your service provider could possibly change the switches and provide a device with sensors and programming facility so that lighting can be switched off or output level adjusted automatically. You can “smarten” up your air conditioner for automatic adjustment of temperature to provide right comfort level or let you use your Smartphone to control it. You can have voice controlled smart home systems. Then there are smart systems with a centralized control unit and Smartphone app connectivity to control and program virtually all devices and appliances in your home including doors, windows, curtains and even the garden sprinklers.
How much does a Smart home service typically cost?
Smart Homes are an ‘in’ thing now. Most people in the U.S are looking to convert their ordinary home into a smart home and that involves an installation of a wide variety of smart home systems that run on automation and advanced digital engineering. The average cost of smart home services is around $5, 000 to $9, 000 for a house of 5 rooms including the plugs, lights, cameras, locks and thermostat. In most cases, people will pay around $1, 000 for each room when they are converting the room to a ‘smart’ room. When professional smart home service providers are installing the system for you the per-hour service charge they’ll ask for is between $80 and $100.
What technologies are used in smart home automation?
Smart homes make use of different technologies. At a basic level you could have Wi-Fi or Bluetooth control or infrared control of devices. Such systems could then be enhanced with microprocessor controls leading to a degree of programmability and automation. Then you could have smart homes with sensors linked to appliances for even better automation and control. Complex systems may use IoT technology, artificial intelligence, voice controls, microprocessors and Smartphone apps to give you complete automation and lots of features such as voice control remote switching of devices and even adjustments of each. You could use your app to set lighting level and even color. You can use the app to set time duration and temperature of the oven. You could control the air conditioner in a similar way. Smart homes may have a centralized unit with Wi-Fi for internals and internet for external monitoring and control. The possibilities are immense. We would suggest that you first study different types of systems and extent of sophistication before you put down money for one.

Most TV mounting systems can be installed within an hour or two, though it may take longer to attach hardware to certain wall surfaces.
