David Russel Felt and Ryan William Clarkson started the company and contributed their middle names to form Russel Williams Window Cleaning LLC. Our Crews are in teams of 2-3 depending on the amount of work that day. Each team member has been hand selected by the owner of Russel Williams. Each person has high integrity, a strong work ethic, and strong personal values. When Russel Williams first started cleaning windows it was a group of friends that went to Bethel University that wanted to not only enjoy their job and have job satisfaction, but to also make all of our customers thrilled with their windows. We continue these values to this day and look forward to providing only the highest quality of work to each and every customer.

"Russel Williams Home Services is my "go to" window cleaning, gutter cleaning, and Christmas lighting. I've been using them for years and I won't use anyone else. They do a great job and are very reasonably priced (with discounts for repeat customers). Most importantly, they're incredibly responsive with great customer service. I highly recommend their services."

Signature Electric Co is a small business that focuses on residential electrical projects and landscape lighting. We have extensive experience with solving electrical problems in older homes. We do everything from installing a light fixture to wiring a new home. We have licensed and friendly electricians ready to take care of your next project. We can provide you with a free estimate on your next project. Our electricians are spread out. Chris lives in the eastern suburbs, Jason in the northern, Troy & Max in the South east, Alfie in Rosville, Scott in west metro, Ryan near Minneapolis, and Adam in St. Paul Thus we can serve most areas quickly.

"We were billed $65 for the trip, and then billed $125 for the hour it took the electrician to drive here! He worked very slowly. Took four hours to install a dedicated outlet for our microwave and three new ground-fault interrupters. He worked on existing outlets while those outlets were live! And he refused to use the Wallabot to help locate the wire in the wall, telling us it would only detect live wires -- we knew better but there was no telling him."

Twin City Garage Door was founded in 1965, and has been a leader in its industry for over 50 years. We have 4 locations; New Hope, St. Paul, Burnsville and St. Cloud. We service the 9 county metro area as well as the St. Cloud area. There we are known as GDS. Visit our websites; www.twincitygaragedoor.com in the cities or www.gdsmidwest.com in the St. Cloud and lakes area. Don’t be fooled by imposters who have set up web addresses confusingly similar to ours! We do both commercial and residential repairs and installations. We do commercial rolling steel, fire doors, high speed doors, partitions ,shutters and grilles. We have a HUGE inventory of doors and openers in stock, including a wide range of attractive residential doors and can special order custom wood doors as well. If repair parts are still available for your door and opener, we either have them in stock or can order them. Our service vans are rolling warehouses widely stocked with commonly needed parts. Because of the longevity, experience, training and expertise of our staff and crew, we can do the difficult jobs nobody else will touch, like a door 40’ up in the air at the MSP airport. We excel at common garage door problems too, like broken springs, cables, rollers, etc. Our crew are all employees, not subcontractors, so they have a vested interest in the reputation and success of the company. All of them have been here a long time and know what they are doing. We do not let a new technician out on his own until he has been thoroughly trained. We have an A+ rating at the BBB and pride ourselves on customer service, during and after the sale! We have won numerous awards over the years, including here on Angie’s List, but our most important goal is to have a happy customer!

"Our new door was ordered on 6/3/2021and installed on 9/15/2021. Shortly thereafter a cosmetic dent was noticed in one of the panels. A new panel was ordered and the damaged one was replaced. On observation, the new panel was damaged also. Again, the panel was ordered and, after a time, replaced. More recently, we noticed that there is a dent on one of the panels but this one is on the interior facing side of the panel. This went unnoticed until now. The previous two cosmetic defects were to the exterior facing panels. The currently damaged panel defect is on the inside facing surface and went unnoticed until now. Most likely because we were accustomed to looking for cosmetic issues on the exterior of the panels. Although it took us a while to discover this new defect, once seen, it is impossible for us to unsee it. Unfortunately for us, Twin City Garage Door Co. refuses to cover the replacement of the panel under their warranty. We will NOT use this company for our next garage door purchase or service. One garage door purchased with three panel replacements, due to handling issues, seems excessive."

Home For A Change offers interior design services in Naples, Fl. (including surrounding areas) and Minneapolis/St. Paul. We are a full design service with many options for you to choose from, depending on your project! New construction, remodels, kitchen and bath design and design consultations that offer "inspiration" for you to follow on your own, also shopping service, furniture, window treatments, accessories and wall and floor finishes. Give me a call if you are looking for carpet, hardwood, tile or kitchen remodel. I will allow you access to my "wholesale members only" store (many locations throughout Florida and Minnesota). If you schedule a design consultation, a complementary design service is included for help with selecting your finishes at my flooring store. Are you moving from Minnesota to Florida or thinking of becoming a "snowbird"? I can help you on both sides, starting with your current home. This service is a consultation that would help you with colors, fabrics, furniture and accessories. We could then evaluate your new place in Florida and use what you have if necessary! On the Florida side, help with paint colors, furniture and accessory shopping or helping to place your existing furniture or any other help you need to create your "home in paradise"!

Electrical questions, answered by experts

A 3-prong, 15-amp, 120-volt outlet is standard in the U.S. These have two vertical slots and a U-shaped grounding hole, which suits most home electronics, from televisions to microwaves. Three-pronged outlets are safer than 2-pronged ones, as the third wire, known as the grounding wire, helps prevent shocks and electrical fires.

You don’t need to be an electrician to change a light bulb. You also don’t have to be an electrician to replace a light fixture with another compatible one. But, if you are installing a light fixture for the first time, it’s worth hiring a licensed professional for the job.

While a handyperson may charge a bit less, a qualified professional can make sure everything is up to code and working exactly as it should be. This is especially true for more complicated lighting projects.

Incandescent lights are glass bulbs with metallic filaments inside, while LEDs feature “light emitting diodes” that illuminate when they come in contact with an electrical current. You can buy either for your Christmas lights, but note that LED lights are more energy-efficient and have a longer lifespan.

Single-pole switches are simple circuits designed for lower voltages. As such, they don’t require the complex wiring of switches that need to supply power to larger devices and appliances. This is why single-pole switches commonly go in bathrooms, closets, and other small rooms that power a low-watt light fixture. One wire creates the circuit from the power supply, the other goes to the fixture, and the final wire provides safety mechanisms through grounding.

Incorrectly wiring a single-pole switch results in the connected light or device not turning on or tripping the circuit breaker. Although it doesn't matter which terminal the hot wire and the load wire connect to, mixing up a circuit wire with a ground or having loose connections can prevent the switch from working.
