Really good experience and the counter looked sooooo much better. Several chips were repairs and the counter was honed as well. It was under $1,000 to do this project and it took about a day all said and done.

Mr. Mahmood and his assistant were wonderful. They figured out the problem (chipmunk had chewed through electrical wires on oven -- long story) and the dishwasher, which was only 4 years old, had a motor malfunction -- apparently a problem in LG dishwashers. He told us the repair would cost...

They prepped by sanding as needed, hammering down popped-up nails, and power washing. They told me they were going to use Benjamin Moore Arborcoat stain and that I should go to Potomac Paint to select the color, which I did. The color, upon application, came out funky, nothing like the stain...

Our deck is very large and has 3 levels including a lot of lattice work and is 24 years old. Marco and his team knew just how much pressure to use on the powerwash, then sanded down places by hand, and repaired two small holes without our even asking. Careful re not getting stain on house, new...

The crew did a fabulous job! Very thorough prep work including power wash, sanding, nailing loose boards, caulking, etc. Painting and stain were well done as well - railings, pillars, and floors. No spills and very little old paint chips found. I will definitely use them again! Very...

Working with Peggy at National Tub & Tile, I was able to take advantage of a schedule cancellation for service the next day. This was particularly helpful because of timing. Rick arrived on time, and did a beautiful job repairing the chip. You'd never know there was ever a chip there!...

Overall, the job went well! I gave a "B" rating for responsiveness because it was time-consuming and a bit frustrating to confirm when the crew would arrive. Apparently, there was a mix-up in the scheduling office. However, the crew of two painters did a wonderful, thorough, and professional...

Brush Chipping questions, answered by experts

Armadillos are attracted to water, so a leaky irrigation system or an overwatered lawn can encourage them to move in. They especially like wet areas where they can burrow and loose soil where they can dig for grubs. They are also attracted to dense ground cover, where they can often find food sources.

If you have a large number of leftover roots, shrub branches, rocks, and soil to remove from your stump removal project, you may need to call a professional junk removal service. A small truckload of junk removal costs between $75 and $125 to haul away. You may also have a free composting center in your area where you can haul the materials on your own.

The legality of blowing leaves into the street depends on your city or county laws. Many cities have codes that restrict blowing leaves into the street because it can obstruct the view of nearby drivers and make cars dirty, not to mention angering neighbors. Violations can result in a fine or other problems. You can check the codes on your municipal government website to learn more local guidelines, but avoid spraying leaves into streets for now.

Trimming or removing trees promotes safety, prevents interference with structures or utilities, and enhances the aesthetic and health of the property landscape.

Leaf removal isn’t always necessary, and what you should do with leaves in your yard depends on the number of trees you have. Leaving a small amount of leaves to decompose on your property can add nutrients to the soil and help grass, plants, and trees thrive. However, large accumulations of leaves can promote mold and fungal growth, so you should do at least two fall cleanups if you have many trees on your property.
