Wouldn't have used the previous repair guy even if I could remember who I used. Found Blount's ad in the local paper. I considered this a low risk small job so I didn't shop around. Plus -so many houses had damage from the storms the contractors who local contractors who specialize in roofing and siding probably wouldn't have come out to give an estimate. I could have done the repair myself except I don't have a ladder tall enough to reach the spot that required repair. He came out looked at what needed to be done gave me an estimate. I thought it was reasonable and had him correct a few other siding problems which he adjusted the estimate according for. He was done in two hours. Sliding repairs have held up to a hurricane and several severe storms without any problems. He suggested I start thinking about a replacement roof as ours is 15 years old. I would definitely consider using them again and would certainly call them for a roofing estimate when the time comes to replace. I was pleased enough to save his business card for future work.

On Friday the business owner came to my home to provide and estimate for the deep clean services. He was a very professional and personable gentleman. We then scheduled an apppointment for cleaning services to be provided the following Monday at 0800. Come Monday, 3 college age females showed up at 0815. I gave them an orientation of my home and covered with them the discussion I had with their employer the prior Friday. They then got right to work. One of the young ladies was new and being trained but this did not detract from the results. All three young ladies worked with focus, displayed dedication to thier work, and strong work ethics. Throughout the cleaning they communicated with each other to ensure all areas were being covered and all tasks were being completed. While no cleaning service is perfect, this service was pretty close to it. The young ladies did NOT take short cuts and sought guidance from me on my preferences for the conduct of various tasks. When I noticed an area that was missed in dusting, it was clear it was unintentional and I asked one them to go over it and she was more than happy to oblige. Positive attitudes. Honest and trustworthy. Services provided for the and quot;deep cleanand quot; included; furniture dusting, base boards, internal windows, sliding glass door, dusting of pictures on walls, cob webs in corners, dusting of indoor shutter/blinds, dusting of fans, dusting of intake vents, dusting of light fixtures, removing marks from doors, vacuuming of area rugs, mopping of hardwood floors, scrubbing of showers/bathtubs/toilets, kitchen counters, wiping down of kitchen cabinets, vacuuming of small rugs and runners. It did not include cleaning the inside of the refrigerator, wiping down leather furniture, vacuuming or mopping underneath area rugs with furniture on them, or cleaning/dusting underneath furniture or beds. However, had I noticed this prior to the ladies departing, I am sure they would have completed these additional tasks upon request as well. Laundry and dishes are not offered in this service. I had a few dishes in the kitchen sink that I intended to clean prior to their arrival and did not get a chance to do so. They cleaned around the dishes and were not able to clean the sink because of them.
Overall, very favorable review. I would hire this service again. Highly recommended.

FAQs for hurricane shutter service projects in Patrick Springs, VA
Metal is one of the best types of hurricane shutters because they are the most durable and longest lasting option. This shutter type will likely cost more than other materials like plywood, but metal hurricane shutters are a permanent solution compared to the temporary nature of putting plywood over your windows during a hurricane. You should also consider hurricane panels and automatic roll-down shutters that are useful for emergency situations.
Hurricane shutters cost about $3,700 on average, ranging from $1,500 to 5,900, depending on the style, size, materials, and your location. Materials may include metal, plastic, fabric, or wood.
Additional cost factors to consider include the number of windows, the time of year you install, and necessary permits. Keep in mind that if you purchase and install hurricane shutters during hurricane season, namely June through November in most states, you can expect to pay more due to increased demand.
Considering the advantages and disadvantages of hurricane shutters can help you decide if they’re the right choice for your home. Some pros and cons include:
Pros
Protection against flying debris during hurricanes and other strong storms
Many available styles
Relatively easy to remove compared to impact windows
Customizable to fit your home
Cons
Expensive cost
Require maintenance
Take up significant space
Many require you to go outside to operate
Hurricane shutters can add value to your home by protecting windows from flying debris during a storm and possibly reducing your home insurance premiums, likely appealing to potential home buyers. The material also plays a role in the value of the hurricane shutters. For example, plywood hurricane shutters are a more temporary solution that likely will not impact home insurance costs even if it can save your windows and doors from damage.
When comparing impact windows vs. hurricane shutters, it’s important to consider the protection and installation details to determine the right choice for you. For constant protection against storms and flying debris, impact windows are a better option than hurricane shutters, especially if you don’t want to install shutters that will change the look of your house. However, impact windows are more costly than hurricane shutters. If you want a budget-friendly option that’s still protective against storms, hurricane shutters are a solid option.
