"After receiving 3 quotes for replacing my deteriorating retaining wall, I chose J&R Chavez Landscaping. Positive reviews, the owner’s assessment, and a reasonable estimate convinced me. I accepted their bid on December 29, 2025. J&R submitted the permit request two days later. Unfortunately, the permit was approved on February 13, 2026, outside contractor control. Work began on February 16, with a good crew working when weather permitted. Delays due to quite bad winter were unavoidable. They discovered the old wall lacked a proper footing so the estimate was adjusted to install a new footing. Jose was transparent about necessary adjustments. The installation took until April 4, 2026, due to weather delays and town inspections. I’m very pleased with the strong, well-drained wall. I enjoyed dealing with J&R Chavez Landscaping with two small issues, communication about delays could be improved and Jose never got back to me about some agreed post job landscaping. Still, great job."

"Had to postpone the job. when I tried to call back and schedule another one they never contacted me back.
UPDATE - They have reached out to me and are coming to my home on 1/8/15. I will update again after I meet with them.
UPDATE - 2/4/2015 - They did come to my home and provided an estimate and plan for lighting our back yard and deck. 6 lights were included in our original purchased deal. Their proposal was for the original 6 lights plus another $1500 worth of lighting. I like their plan but we weren't prepared to spend the additional money at this time. They came out yesterday and installed just the initial 6 lights. They arrived on time and the work they did is wonderful. Our deck is beautifully lit now and I am very happy. While this relationship got off to a rocky start, they made it right and we will hire them again when we're ready to finish the back yard lighting. Also - the deal was supposed to be for the front of the house - but that wasn't clear when I bought the deal - so they allowed us to use our 6 lights on the deck. I'm sure they want the front so that they can show off their work - and that makes sense to me - as their work is worth showing off. I would now highly recommend this company."
"I found Emerald on Angie’s list. My renovation project included replacing the old structure, that was infested with mosquitos, with a new patio that would serve as a place of leisure and relaxation. Emerald did an excellent job! The landscaping, new plating, beautiful masonry, stone steps, and river rock boarder exceeded my expectation. The staff and team were attentive to my needs and kept me informed of the project's progress and timeline. I'm thankful to have found a reliable landscaper to work with."
"Mr. Wilburn's crew showed up on time Thursday to rake my leaves. They had to reschedule when the weather turned unfavorable in the middle of their work. The crew returned Friday as promised to finish the work. Since I was at the office that, I could not hand them the check in person. Mr. Wilburn let me mail it. My contractor was in the house that day take care of a project and commented that the crew did an excellent job. I inspected the results afterwards and agree. Mr. Wilburn's company will be back next year to mow my lawn and take care of my other landscaping needs. "

"I contacted Earth Friendly Services this morning and I immediately received a reply. Phil contacted me and I asked for a proposal for installing my new light. He responded and said he would be at my home in about 15 - 20 minutes. His responsiveness was exact. He arrived in about 15 minutes. I showed him the light fixture and he said it was no problem and he could do it today. I also asked him if he would also install a new electrical outlet in my foyer and again he said no problem. Phil installed the light fixture and the electrical outlet that day and he did a fantastic job. He was very professional and the quality of work was awesome. I was also very pleased on the price. I have put Earth Friendly Services number in my phone book and I will sure use them again. Thanks Phil! "
"The landscapers arrived timely; and after brief introductions they immediately began working, cutting trimming, and weeding. Clearly these guys are meticulous and take pride in their work. The edging work is so neat & clean. Not a blade out of place. They take the time to ensure that my dog is secure before beginning. I've used Ray's several times and have never experienced an issue with the service provided. I have already requested Ray's to assist with preparing my landscape for the winter months, and I'm confident that I have a landscaper on speed dial for next spring/summer."

While most general electricians can repair lamps and light fixtures, it is often better to hire a lamp repair specialist. Many electricians prefer larger jobs, such as fixing electrical systems or relocating fixtures, and may not offer lamp repair services due to the small scale of the work. Additionally, some lamps, particularly antique models, require dedicated expertise that a general electrician might not have. A lamp repair specialist will be familiar with various types of fixtures and can provide a more dedicated service. If you have already hired an electrician for a larger project, you can ask them to look at your lamp, but for a standalone repair, a specialist is typically the best option.
While wet-rated and damp-rated lighting is designed to handle contact with moisture, there’s a difference between the two. Wet-rated lighting is safety-rated to be placed in areas with direct exposure to water, including your shower. Fixtures classed as wet-rated are made with waterproof seals to protect the filament and other electrical components from water and moisture.
Damp-rated fixtures can be used in places with some moisture contact, but not direct exposure. They don’t have the same waterproof seals used in wet-rated fixtures. Damp-rated lighting can be used on your bathroom ceiling or along a wall outside of your shower.
Table lamps, floor lamps, chandeliers, desk lamps, and antique or decorative light fixtures that hold sentimental or aesthetic value are commonly repaired.
Although security lighting may not deter a determined burglar, its presence will make your property that much less enticing to would-be trespassers. When paired with other types of home security systems like alarms and surveillance cameras, strong lights will better help you and the authorities identify thieves in the instance they attempt to break in or succeed at doing so.
Flickering lights, intermittent outages, or physical damage to fixtures signal immediate repair to avoid electrical hazards.
