"Needed help installing a dryer vent through a brick wall... Didnt have the right tools to drill a 4 inch hole in bricks efficiently and decided to hire someone. I spent two hours trying to do this with minimal progress... told my wife I'd be laughing if the guy showed up and knocked it out in an hour. Franklin came out and drilled the hole for me in about 45 minutes for a reasonable price. He had all the right tools and made quick work of a task that would have taken me several hours and buying some new tools. Great work franklin!"

"I couldn't be happier with their service. Our old garage door died late on Thursday and Andrew's answered my call at 8:00PM and were able to schedule an appointment on Saturday. They arrived within their three hour window then quickly diagnosed the problem and explained the options. Once I decided to go with a replacement, their technician Chris was at my house Monday to complete the install while my wife and I were at work. After I got home, I was able to call Chris and he walked me though his observations and answered my questions. Their work was great, but the most impressive thing was their level of communication and accessibility. It made coordinating and scheduling very easy. "
"The company showed up on time and conducted the shingle replacement being careful not to damage the gardens around the house. They brought the roof up to current code, (the roof no longer complied with local codes), and worked with our chimney company to install the flashing properly. The cleanup was performed in an acceptable manner and the work was finished on time. Follow-up inspections by the company and I showed I had a good roof that was going to last another long time. I would definitely recommend this company for roof work."
"Due to rotted wood, my mailbox fell down on a Friday. Around 5:00pm, I sent a note to Mailbox Xpress stating that I wanted to have a new Mailbox and a new post installed. My plan was to be added to their list of work for the following week. However, I received a call from Jimi that Friday night, and spoke with him again on Saturday, about the type of mailbox post that I wanted. Also, I sent Jimi a picture showing the color of both my house and the old mailbox post. I pointed out to Jimi that I had no expectations for him to install the mailbox that weekend. However, Jimi made my case a priority because my mailbox had fallen down. He matched the color of my house and installed the new mailbox that Sunday. And, it was a tough job getting the old concrete out of the ground. So, from a flyer left on my old mailbox 5-6 years ago, what did I get by contacting Mailbox Xpress? I got excellent customer service and excellent workmanship. The new mailbox with a new post is fine."
"I contacted Metropolitan chimney when we discovered water dripping inside our fireplace. Oscar was very professional on the phone and arranged to come out to look that afternoon. He arrived promptly and assessed our chimney. After 25 years, the concrete crown needed to be replaced. He also sealed several areas and replaced mortar joints that were cracked/damaged. After all repairs were completed he applied waterproofing to the entire outside chimney. After the next rain, we did still have a minor drip. I called and spoke with Oscar and he was out to our home within 3 hours. He inspected every brick of the chimney again and repaired a few more possible problem areas. He did not charge any additional fee for this return trip. We have had absolutely no problems since the repair and are VERY happy with Metropolitan Chimney and Oscar. I would really recommend them for anyone that needs chimney or masonry services. "
"Travis and Chris were great. On time, professional, and quality work. They did a variety of jobs that all required getting on a ladder. It was a very hot/humid day and they did the work with a smile. They installed an attic fan, some lights, and cleaned my gutters. Although Travis is very experienced, he was not ?above? cleaning leaves out of a gutter. I have already referred them to others. He has fair pricing and excellent communication skills. Thanks! "
On average, fleas can leave for about 2 to 3 months in your carpet. However, if they have access to a host for feeding, they can return to the cozy carpet and live much longer. That’s why it’s essential to remove fleas from your carpet quickly before they take up permanent residence.
Yes, you can get rid of wolves naturally using nonlethal deterrents, like motion-activated lighting or loud music. You can also get rid of wolves with the same methods that apply to keeping other wildlife away—strong and tall fencing, a guard dog, and a clean property free from potential food sources.
Roaches entering your home or infesting an area are usually the result of poor sanitation. Cockroaches feed off of crumbs, spills, food scraps, and other organic matter, so they’re more likely to stick around and come back for more if your space isn’t cleaned up regularly. Maintain your home and prevent roaches by cleaning the kitchen area daily, sealing food tightly, removing open water sources, and eliminating clutter.
Early spring is a critical time to protect your garden from rabbit damage. During this season, rabbits tend to target tender green shoots and emerging vegetation. However, it's still a good idea to implement rabbit control measures year-round to establish a comprehensive and effective strategy for long-term success. Keep in mind that preventive measures are often more effective than reactive ones, so early action can help minimize potential rabbit problems.
Water bugs won’t actively chase you, but they earned the nickname “toe-biters” for good reason. Water bugs are highly defensive. They typically rest an inch or so below water, waiting for prey. But if they feel threatened by a human that gets close, they may inject the person with a harmless venom from their legs, which may feel like a bite.
