"After many recommendations from the locals, my husband and I reached out to Brandon Turner at Pro Quality Property Maintenance to figure out what to do with our overgrown backyard. Our in-ground pool had about 3 feet of flat space around it but from there it was a steep decline on two sides down to our fence. The slope was a mishmash of dozens of shrubs, old tree roots, bushes, weeds, and old landscape fabric that was no longer doing its job. In the winter it just looked barren. In the summer everything grew out of control until it looked like an urban jungle. Half of the yard around the pool was totally unusable. The only one who ever went back there was my Labrador, and even she found it kind of scary in the summer. We had no idea how to configure the slope. Frankly speaking, I was just ready to pay someone to pull up all the roots and shrubs and mulch the whole thing. Brandon came out and had some fantastic ideas. He suggested a retaining wall and cleanup of the area down below near our fence. We settled on sod, mulch, and a flat patio in the fence corner (a great spot for the husband to listen to his ball games at night), and pea gravel around the pool. With the retaining wall, we gained 8-10 feet of usable space on two sides of the pool. This was a game-changer for us. And that wall ainâ t going anywhere. Itâ s solid. We werenâ t even thinking about things like drainageâ which was important with our pool. These guys do not mess around. Brandonâ s crew were awesome. Very polite, efficient, and cleaned up every day. They re-seeded areas where the equipment had run over the existing grass (unavoidable) and the whole effort took about a weekâ s worth of work. We also had Pro Quality do some mulching and edging in the front. I let Brandon pick out some plants and he nailed it with pink and white azaleas and a really cool skinny weeping umbrella tree (I donâ t know what their correct name is). I seriously could not be happier. It looks amazing, is easy to take care of, and we have a ton of usable space to set up around the pool. I canâ t believe Brandon isnâ t even 30 years old, heâ s a freaking genius! I should note, I had an estimate from another local company for the same design and they were almost identical. Thank you, Pro Quality Property Maintenance! You ROCK!"

Contacted All American painting & Home repair company based on Angie's list reviews. Mr. Wayland (Eddie) arrived, gave us an estimate, took his time explained everything he was going to do and how he was going to preform the necessary work that needed to be done. We had a few set backs based on the  weather as this was all exterior work. Paula(Eddie's wife) kept us informed , excellent communication, as to when he would be arriving and when he was not. Eddie and his assistance Orval are hard workers, very detailed, very professional. Windows look brand new.


This is a family owned business, that provide outstanding service, we have referred him to our neighbor, we would not hestitate to use this company in the future. Very pleased. They are located in Front Royal Virginia just to make sure you have the right company.

"Mike was the only contractor to call us back right away.  He showed up when he said he was going to show up - he called when he said he was going to call.  Installation took 3 days and each time - he called on time and showed up on time.  Very happy with his service and highly recommend."

Snow Removal questions, answered by experts

While most people associate defrosting icy roads with salt, you can also use sugar for a similar result. Sugar lowers the freezing point of water, melting ice in a pinch.

However, sugar doesn’t melt ice as well as salt because it doesn’t separate the water molecules as efficiently. So, if you need to quickly melt a stubborn patch of ice on your driveway or walkway, it’s best to use salt over sugar for faster results.

Snow can be too heavy for a snow blower and cause clogs in the chute. However, having the correct type of blower for the snow conditions can reduce the chances of it being too heavy for it to handle. Another trick for preventing clogs is to make multiple passes while it snows rather than waiting for it to finish snowing.

Yes—in fact, it’s an important step in how to start a snow blower. Allowing the engine to idle for a few minutes prior to using a snow blower helps it reach its optimal operating temperature, which gets the fuel running properly, improves its performance, and helps prevent stalling during frigid weather.

In most cases, it’s worth it to pay for professional snow removal. You can shovel the snow yourself, but it’s very labor-intensive and puts you at risk of injury or illness by performing exhausting manual labor in slippery conditions. Paying a professional removes that risk and saves you time and energy. Depending on your agreement, you could wake up to a cleared driveway and a car that’s ready to drive rather than have to get up early to do the work yourself.

Roof raking helps clear snowfall from your roof and, in turn, you hope that this prevents ice dams. But can roof raking actually cause them? Generally, no, it cannot. But you should note that while, in some cases, you might successfully prevent ice dams from forming near the edge of your roof by keeping it cleared with a roof rake, they could still form higher up on the roof, where you are unable to reach. This may leave you wondering: Does roof raking prevent ice dams? While it is not a 100% guaranteed way to prevent them, it does help.
