The repair didn't go well at all from Johnstown Painting Services. (JPS) OWNER J. Brian Stoko
I specifically wanted and told JPS I wanted my roof step flashed, because the original contractor used solid flashing and my roof had leaked the last winter.
JPS said they can do the flashing and asked about siding work too.
I told them I can do siding myself, but give me a price.
I had had already purchased the following materials to minimize expense and time. I had shingles, ice guard, house wrap, j-channel, corner channel, siding, and siding nails.
I did not have the step flashing and roofing rails.
I was quoted $2.800 and I told the Contractor (NO WAY!) I will do it myself.
That I had 95% of the materials.
He dropped to around $2,000 and I said I will think about it.
He said he can do it for $1,500.
I told him I will still need to let him know.
When I had no one else to turn to, to do the work I called JPS and said I will take them up on the quote.
This time the roofer guy for the company came out and suggested not to do sub structure repair that it wasn't need. So they took $200 off.
So the Estimate was $1,300 in which the wrote on the Estimate (Guaranteed Not To Leak)
I paid them with a check $650.00 before they started
They were to start in two days and didn't until over a week.
When I got home from work on a Friday, they were just finishing up.
I was asked if I could get the remaining $650 in cash to pay the rest.
I did just that for them.
I got up on the roof to look it over and noticed that the house wrap was flapping outside the siding and there were pine needles up against the roof and wall which made me call them to ask the owner of JPS if they did the step flashing and he replied NO, because there was flashing there.
I was furious and told him that, I paid you to do the step flashing and not that it was important, but also paid you to install siding.
That it will leak when the winter comes. He told me it will not leak.
I told him I want money back for him not following the estimate/contract.
He tried to offer $100 back. I was very upset and said I want more then that back! You guys only put up a 2.0-2.5 square of siding and I took you and one other worker 7 hours and only used 1 tube of caulking.
He offered $300 back or more siding work.
Not even two weeks later my roof was leaking during a light rain. I called Mr. Stopko and told him of it.
His response "No Way I can't believe it's leaking.
I told him to come look at it and fix it.
He played games with me for weeks. More like over a month and never once came to look at the leaking roof.
I called Maddy Construction and paid them $1,330.00 and the leak was fixed.
I ask Mr. Stopko to pay Maddy Const. the $1,330.00.
His response was that's more then I charged you originally.
I explained that they had to very carefully remove new siding now that you just put up and step flash, counter flash etc.
I told him I will go to the Magistrates, and he said he will drag it out forever.
Why you ask? Because his name is Joseph Brian Stopko, but he goes by J. Brian Stopko to hide his identity.
In the Cambria County Courts he has over 15 Civil cases against him and over a dozen Criminal charges. this guy is a Professional Con-Artist.
I threated him with Court again and the Better Business Bureau and set up a payment arrangement of $900 be returned to me by April 31, 2015. with payments of $150 on the 15th of each month.
He broke the agreement several times and finally paid the $900.00 in July 2015.

We had two issues. When the salesman came out, our order was either manufactured or ordered wrong. Therefore when the windows arrived to our home, they were not the correct size. The windows had to be re-orded. This pushed the completion time frame back from the promised 10 weeks, to a total of close to 4 months. The installers were incredibly pleasant and polite, but we felt they left a little more residual damage than expected. For example, this included chips in our ceiling from the windows they installed. A tile wall in our bathroom also had to be repaired due to the damage from window install. They did have the best price out of any of the estimates we received from other window companies. Again, we know accidents and mistakes happen but this caused our review of Window World to be average.

FAQs for kenmore vacuum repair projects in East Conemaugh, PA
Common repairs for central vacuum cleaners include motor repair, electrical repair, and blocked filters. Central vacuum motor issues typically come with a burning smell and loss of suction. With these issues, you might need simple lubrication to keep it running smoothly, or for more extreme problems, you could need a motor replacement.
Electrical problems or losing suction strength, might be reasons to swap out electrical components for new ones. However, a local central vacuum repair professional can tell you the best plan of action for your system.
The average cost for central vacuum cleaner repair is $310, though prices can range from $120 to $500. Your total cost will depend on the type of repair needed and the type of central vacuum you own.
A minor motor repair, like lubrication, only costs around $50. However, if you need to replace your motor, you’ll be looking at a much higher price tag with a total of $100 to $500. Other fixes, like electrical work, are charged by the hour, which ranges from $15 to $55per hour.
The answer to repairing vs. replacing appliances depends on the type of appliance, the severity of the issue or damage, and the quality of it. If you’ve purchased a top-of-the-line small appliance, it’s almost always more cost-effective to repair it than to replace it. You should also consider the cost to repair it, though. If the repair cost is more than half the cost of a new version, lean toward purchasing a new one. Your small appliance technician could also help you decide by determining the expected remaining lifespan after the repair.
Small appliance repair costs average around $50to $400, with costs ranging significantly based on the type of appliance, the extent of the damage, the issue, the appliance brand, and the availability of replacement parts. Generally speaking, you’ll pay less for repairs on very small appliances, like blenders and toasters, than you will for microwave repairs. We recommend consulting a small appliance repair technician for a quote before starting the project.
Small appliances typically include microwaves, toasters, toaster ovens, food processors, blenders, mixers, slow cookers, air fryers, coffee makers, rice cookers, and any other appliance that can sit on your countertop. Major appliances include refrigerators, dishwashers, ovens, cooktops, washers, and dryers. Some people may include HVAC equipment like condensers and air handlers in this category, too. Small appliances are more of a specialty, so there’s a good chance a typical appliance repair company won’t be able to service and repair small appliances.
