This outfit was acting as a subcontractor for American Home Shield (AHS), who markets home protection warranties. They were supposed to uncrate and install a new Jenn-Aire gas range ? after AHS determined our old one could not be repaired. When setting this installation up, AHS personnel also told me that the installers would take care of removal and disposal of the old range. About all that went well was that they showed up around 10:15; the appointment was for 10:00. Still, 15 minutes is better promptness than I?ve gotten from the telephone and cable TV companies with whom I?ve dealt. These guys didn?t even get the range completely uncrated before mangling the decorative stainless steel kick plate on the front of the unit! Oddly, the second step in the included installation manual ? right after telling about removing packing materials and loose parts shipped inside the range ? reads ?Remove screws from kick plate.? The instructions then continue with instructions for removing the kick plate so as not to damage it. Next, while attempting to manhandle the unit through one of our sliding patio doors, they caught a piece of sheet metal near the bottom of the range on the door sill ? bending a corner of it away from the range body -- facilitating it plowing a couple of gouges into our oak floor. Things calmed down a bit for a while as they started figuring how to attach the existing gas plumbing to the range. However, they soon realized they?d have leave for an hour or so to go to the hardware store for some fittings. Fortunately ? and apparently rightfully ? in my pre-installation paranoia, I had already bought a bunch of pipe elbows and stubs that I thought might be needed. The threatened delay was avoided as they picked the elbows and stubs required from my stash. I later returned the unused items to Home Depot. This plumbing exercise was not completely without incident, though. The process of routing the gas line without interfering with any of the range components required moving the unit into and out of the opening several times. During these iterations they damaged the custom platform I made to align the cooktop with our higher-than-normal countertops. The final iteration of this moving out and in process was, indeed, the most memorable, though. Rather than use one of the conventional methods for checking the integrity of the gas connections (like maybe a soapy solution ? or even some kind of a chemical detector), the assistant bull asked our son to borrow his cigarette lighter and then played the flame over the connections ? proudly asserting something to the effect of ?this way, you know right now if there?s a leak!? Finally, after forcing my heart from my throat back down into my chest cavity, with the installation complete ? and our nearly $6,000 Jenn-Aire gas range looking like a new car with a bashed-in fender on one of those auto insurance commercials ? the lead bull appeared to record model and serial numbers and promised they?d order another kick plate and let me know when it arrived to make arrangements to get it to me. They then departed without even asking about removal and disposal of the old range, however ? after the events of the preceding two hours or so, taking that thing to the dump myself seemed preferable ? Over the ensuing month and a half I called several times to see when I could expect the new kick plate ? and was told every time that it was on ?back order.? Never once, did the person who answered the phone identify himself. Finally, disgusted with what can only be interpreted as an attempt to stall -- and dejected about our nearly $6,000 range looking like a dented-up automobile -- I went on line and located a factory replacement part in under 5 minutes. Even more surprising is that www.AppliancePartsPros.com had the new kick plate on our porch less than 48 hours after I ordered it! I have since communicated an abbreviated version of this saga to Johnson Appliance Repair with a request to be reimbursed for only the replacement kick plate and postage. I?m still waiting ? If this is the type of outfit with whom you?d like to do business, then have at it. Who knows? Your story might be even more memorable ?

Concerns The movers seamed completely uncaring of our personal property or appliances with the way they treated them. Before they even started they told us we did not need to empty the refrigerator. Only when the time came to move it they made a big deal about it being full then proceeded to ram and jam it through the door after being told when it was originally brought in that the front door was removed. 2 plastic pieces were broken off the fridge that we still don't know where they came from. Furniture was just dropped where they felt like it. Couch was dropped in front of window and cushions left in bag. Dining room table was dropped off and chairs were strewn about. They were told where things needed to be placed and didn't listen and put them where they wanted requiring more time to be used to have them move things where they should have been placed the first time. Almost broke the ceiling fan when carrying the doggy door through the room because they weren't paying attention. Dumped dirty water on carpet in old house without bothering to tell anyone. Didn't take things that should have clearly been moved requiring me to have to move more things myself. Move that should have taken 8 hours max took 13.5 hours costing me way more money then it should have.

Gregg's Electrical Service LLC has been in business for over 20+ years! We are a small family owned business based in the Karns area. We would love to help you with your needs.
"Chris Gregg performed the work, and he worked expeditiously and professionally. The new transmitter in the fan doesn't work yet, but it's probably because we have the wrong control box (my error). The pole light works very well. The doorbell cameras are a problem - the backdoor works fine, the front door not yet. We think it's a problem with the voltage from the transformer, and Chris has committed to figuring out the wiring and return to complete that job. The doorbell itself works fine, but the camera is yet to function. Chris was very helpful in explaining the issue to me."

FAQs for tv antenna equipment service projects in Oak Ridge, TN
If your TV antenna is good quality and was installed by a professional, you can expect it to last between 10 and 20 years without needing repair or replacement. This can vary based on your geographic location, weather conditions, and antenna location.
TV antennas should be replaced if it’s been bent or physically damaged. It is possible that these can still be repaired. However, the repair won’t be as superior as a repair on a non-damaged antenna. Since repairing an antenna is typically less expensive than replacing it by at least $100, it’s worth trying to save your existing one if possible.
Before investing in a TV antenna repair, there are a few steps you can take to help boost your signal quality. Removing obstacles like tree branches can help improve your signal strength. Along the same line, moving an indoor antenna away from obstacles can also help. These should be near a window, as high as possible. If these steps don’t work, speak with a TV antenna technician about a signal amplifier to help boost your signal even further.
The cost to repair your TV antenna is around $200 for the average homeowner. However, charges could be as low as $60 or as high as $450. Factors such as multidirectional or unidirectional, indoor or outdoor, and amplified or non-amplified all play an essential role in determining the cost of your repair. For example, outdoor antennas cost more on average to repair than indoor ones, much like amplified antennas cost more to repair than unamplified ones.
Before your TV antenna stops working, there are a few ways to tell it’s starting to break. Some common signs that your antenna needs repair include:
A repetitive “no signal” issue
A redundant “searching” issue
Increased signal issues during a cloudy or rainy day
A sudden drop in signal strength, regardless of the weather
If you’re experiencing these problems, you’ll want to ensure that your cables are still in good shape and have not deteriorated. In addition, check to make sure that your cables are firmly in place at the wall outlet. Finally, check the position of your antenna to ensure there are no obstructions in its path. If you’ve checked your antenna thoroughly and are still having these problems, a repair is most likely needed by an antenna technician.
