I found Allen Automative Repair on Angie's list and decided to give it a try. They gave me an appointment two days out and had to get my car towed to them. They diagnosed the problem to be corrosion on the battery terminals; cleaned it, checked alternator to make sure it was ok - all this for $47. I'd recommend them to everyone for their honesty and professionalism.

I was interested in his hassle free services because of his move-up specials and my friend used his services and had success. I told him on a Friday in December 2010 what we were looking for and we signed paperwork to build a home on Sunday (3 day process). We had been looking for a home for over 4 years. This was the easiest process that I have ever experienced. He uses technology and has established relationships with builders. This makes the process much easier because he know what is going on in the new home sales. Since we had not sold our existing home he also put our home on the market in March and sold in July. I was very pleased considering the tough market. Well what is even more amazing about this story is that we received a check for over $8K for the return of commission for purchasing and then we were charged 1.0% for the sale of our home. FREE MOVE-UP! Mike and his wife and very honest, trustworthy, and they will stand beside you during the most difficult negotiations and they provide top of the line services. They made our home buying process worth the long wait. I have a great home...thanks to Mike and Jenee. I am very thankful and grateful for his top of line service. He has the tools, key relationships, skills, and knowledge. I would not want to go through this process without Mike and Jenee on our team. Our realtor knowledge made a huge difference in our life. I would definitely recommend their services even without the commission specials.

Tx befuddles me, especially the weather. I contacted Ken through Angie's List. He came to my home, listened to my concerns and made suggestions that fit my budget and goals. He identified all plants on my property, pointed out poison ivy and cost-effective means to treat it. Needless to say, Ken knows his business, is very personable, and really listens. He also provides on-the-mark suggestions. Which leads me to Charlie, who with another guy (forgive me, I don't recall his name) came to check my sprinkler system and set up. Charlie was wonderful, immediately identified problem sprinkler heads and flow problems and pipe leaks, asking prior which I wanted serviced. I said all and was really amazed that the total cost was so low. They repaired a major water leak, replaced sprinkler heads, repositioned another head and ensured all systems covered appropriate areas and that the automated system was set up properly. Everyone was very professional, courteous and kind."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/tx/plano/village-green-reviews-2181867.htm"},"position":9}]}

The only downside was the scheduling that occurred yesterday. The person on the phone was very nice and helpful and took note of our schedule needs, and, we believe, conveyed this to dispatch. Dispatch made an automated phone call saying we were scheduled directly in a period for which we...
Unfortunately, when it comes to needing an electrician, I will NOT need Home Advisor again. Brooks Electrical did a fantastic job, was very professional and price was very reasonable.

Home Automation questions, answered by experts
Yes, many installations offer mobile and cloud-based access for real-time monitoring.
Yes, a DIY security system can qualify for home insurance discounts, as long as it includes key features like cameras, motion detectors, or alarms that effectively deter break-ins. While insurers often lean towards professionally monitored systems, they generally value any proactive measures you take to boost your home’s security. Just make sure your system is properly installed, and keep your insurer in the loop about its features and any monitoring systems you’ve set up.
Smart thermostats allow remote control, energy savings, and detailed usage tracking through mobile apps.
If your home security system relies on the internet for operational purposes, then there’s a chance someone could hack into it. Fortunately, the chances of hacking occurring are low, but it’s something to be aware of. Wired security cameras or cameras that store data on a local server and not a cloud-based server have an even lower probability of getting hacked.
Yes, you can install a home security system in an old house. In fact, you can install a security system in any home. Some wiring may need to be added, but most home security systems do not require a lot of additional wiring. Wireless security systems can easily be installed with minimal additional wiring, if any at all. Most wireless security systems can be monitored and controlled from your smartphone, and the cameras and sensors operate on batteries.
