"Great! Excellent service. On time, did the work they said they would at the cost they said it would cost. Will definitely use this company in the future."
"Wow, what a great contractor! Jeff, Joe, and Company are simply the best. Last spring and summer (2021) JJB painted our home beautifully. In the process, they discovered significant repair issues that needed prompt attention. They kept us well informed throughout the process, and our home was transformed. We were so thrilled with their work, that we engaged JJB to further transform our home in 2022 by adding a large covered porch (including beautiful new windows), and a matching pergola to the front of our house. What an amazing transformation, with incredible curb appeal! Friends and acquaintances sometimes drive right by our home and have to double back, because they can’t recognize it anymore. JJB’s attention to detail, superb customer service, wonderful and friendly crew, and total professionalism are giving us our dream home. We plan to hire them again for two additional projects. I wish we could share photos. Bravo, JJB!"
"Watry Homes did a great job. Their rep was on time and very knowledgeable. He explained my different options and gave me a good price. On time, professional, and very knowledgeable. I will definitely call Watry Homes for my next home project. "
"absolutely AMAZING service. Down to earth individuals who did really great work! we were caught by surprise at the water damage and mold that had occurred ( from a leak in the dishwasher), Chris did a wonderful assessment, told us all the steps and gave us a very fair price. He noted further improvements to be done with the lighting (previous improper installation) and need for access panel (for wiring of our dehumidifier) : and he took care of it!! (also took care of an extra "ding" in the drywall in a nearby closet) when they did their work, everything was taped off professionally and sealed, all tile and appliances protected. I was very impressed and it was such a relief to see their professional workmanship for this stressful time. They came multiple days (over a few weeks), texted/called my husband with updates on days in-between treatment and were respectful of our house and time. If you need their services, do not hesitate, truly A+++ I will hire again if the need arises!"
"Pick them if you want honesty and integrity. Jeff arrived on time, was honest, professional, and went above and beyond. As it turned out, the work we were told we needed by previous contractors wasn't necessary. Drain tile was already present and functioning in the area in question. Jeff was honest about this and didn't simply attempt to create unneeded and expensive work. He took it one step further and helped me better understand alternative corrective measures we could take. I'm very grateful and can't say enough good things about them."
"Doors look great and they did s good job installing. There was a minor misunderstanding in regards to pricing out the right doors. The doors I really wanted were a lot more money, but glad I went with them as they are perfect."
"They came when they said they would. They also gave me photos what was needed to be done and what might need to be done in the future. It has been raining and snowing and nothing has come through. I was happy with their service."
"Terrific experience. Very responsive and professional. Took care of our foundation crack when they said they would, no drama. More water came following their work and it all held up to the rain and floods. So, we were pleased. We'd have them back....hopefully no more water in the basement though. They care about their reputation and it shows. Thanks for your help!

Greenhouses and Nurseries questions, answered by experts
Adding burnt charcoal to your garden beds and plant pots can yield several benefits, but there are risks involved, too. Charcoal, particularly biochar, can enhance soil structure, improve water drainage, and increase nutrient retention. When activated, charcoal provides key nutrients like nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. However, burnt charcoal, especially from briquettes, can inadvertently alter soil's pH levels and become hazardous to plants. Overall, there are better and less risky soil amendments available, such as vermiculite, perlite, or wood chips.
Eco-friendly materials include sustainably-sourced woods, recycled metals, low-VOC paints, and non-toxic sealants, which reduce environmental impact. Using these in repairs promotes sustainability and can improve indoor air quality and overall building health.
The quickest way you can protect plants and trees from frost is to cover them with garden blankets or frost cloths. Also, bringing potted plants or trees indoors is much simpler than trying to cover and protect them outdoors. Remember to anchor blankets with something such as sandbags, fabric pins, or rocks if the forecast calls for strong winds to keep them from blowing away and exposing your trees and plants.
In most cases, wait three to five days to repot or relocate a plant from a greenhouse or nursery. That way, your plant has time to recover from any shock during the move and adapt to the conditions in and around your home. Some hearty plants may not need as long, and delicate plants might need several weeks. You should ask the professional at your nursery for a recommended timeline. Consider asking about an initial watering schedule to help stimulate root growth and promote a healthy plant.
Minor fixes like patching leaks or repainting are DIY-friendly, but structural repairs require professional expertise.
