Material arrived on Friday 9/5/2014. Paid half of contract price.
Rain prevent start until Mon. 9/8/2014. Four man Crew arrived 8am and immediately began work.
Removed sections of old 30x30 foot garage roof with drip edge and check sheathing. Were well equipped for task having proper tools and know-how.
Workers seemed to be Hispanic and only spoke to each other in Spanish. Communication with only one person in English. This was not a problem. They each seemed to have a job and went about it with little or no discussion about what was to be done. They finished the job and left the area clean, magnetically sweeping the area for metallic debris.
I was a little skeptical about how the joining of the garage roof to the main building roof would work. After observing how they took care of the task, I have little doubt it will work. The procedure seemed to follow all the research I had done concerning membrane roof installation on the internet and conversations with friends and neighbors.
This job was a bit unusual it that it was a nearly flat 30x30 foot roof joined to a 30x60 foot Armco Steel Building constructed in 1956.The roof joined one side of the main building and had leakage problems for at least 30 years where the two buildings met. Several roofers had tackled the job before with limited to no success.
I have know Frye Roofers since 1955 when the original owners were in Bluefield. The present company seem to be carrying on a tradition of quality workmanship and professionalism. I have more confidence in this job at this site than any approach any other roofers have attempted with this unique problem. Paid in full 9/9/2014.

Wallace Van & Storage Corporation came very highly recommended. We contacted them and the owner came into our home and gave us an estimate on what it would cost to pack and move our entire home. Once completed we were assurred that this move of less than 15 miles away would only take one day. I questioned the owner if he did background checks on his movers, as I am a Probation Officer and cannot be too careful. I was assurred by the owner that he thoroughly checks out all employees. We signed the contract and on the day of the move the mover were scheduled to begin at 7:30 am. They arrived over an hour late and had no packing supplies and informed us that they were not told that they were supposed to pack the home as well as move it. One of the movers was a known probationer which placed me in a very precarious situation, against the assurances of the owner that they thoroughly checked out all movers. It took the movers all day to pack the home, and at approximately 6:00 pm I was informed that there would be no way that they could get the truck to the new home and unpack it as was agreed upon. One mover went so far as to have his girlfriend come to my home, where he proceeded to make out with her in the moving truck. I informed them that this was not acceptable as all the beds, include the beds of my 1 and 2 year old children were packed. I contacted the owner and was assurred that they would remain until the job was complete. Upon arrival at the new home the movers did not fulfill their contract and set up the beds and most items that were haphazzardly packed in boxed were left in my garage. The movers lost the parts to my two children's cribs and could not reassemble them. I again contacted the owner, who came to the new home and again assurred me that they would make it right. After hours of searching for the missing parts I informed the owner that they would be responsible for replacing the beds that their movers made useless. The owner went to Wal-Mart to replace the beds and later called to inform her workers that there were no replacement beds....she did not even tell me this herself or call me directly. At approximately 12:30 am the movers left my home, forcing my wife and I to sleep on the floor with the children sleeping in their swings. The next day I contacted the owner, who had the nerve to tell me that we would still have to pay for the moving. I informed her that if I saw a bill, she would see a lawsuit. I will never use Wallace again, and will warn all my friends and family against this. This was a horrible experience that I never want to repeat."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/wv/princeton/wallace-van-and-storage-corp-reviews-5327033.htm"},"position":8},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"Interstate Heating & Air Conditioning","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"WV","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Patricia D."},"reviewBody":"The initial visit was great, very professional and well informed. The next visit was to perform maintenance. The furnace was malfunctioning, so the tech recommended I replace it or replace costly parts. Since it was 19 years old and giving me problems during the last few years I decided to replace it. We scheduled a day for the replacement. On that day the technicians arrived on time and were very professional. They did drop my humidifier once during the installation, and forgot to secure it again before they left and it fell off again so they had to come back to secure it. Having it fall after they left startled me but when I called the company and they sent them back immediately. It appeared to be an honest mistake. The humidifier was slated to be replaced, and was not part of the job, so I really don't hold that against them. But if it was a new, or nearly new, item they would have likely damaged it, so they should probably be careful when they are handling equipment not related to their installation and belonging to their customers."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/ok/oklahoma-city/interstate-heating-and-air-conditioning-reviews-301955.htm"},"position":9},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"JERRY'S HEATING AND COOLING","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"WV","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"RILEY H."},"reviewBody":"If I could give lower than 1 star, I would.

The problem we were having was no heat. The temp kept getting lower. That was the coldest day so far and we had no heat. He said he *fixed* it & had to order the breakers to REALLY fix it. OK. So, I come home at 5 pm to no heat for a weekend of 20 degrees. Um, no. I call their emergency line and you have to lve a message. I left one every hour and no one EVER called me back until Monday. I have asthma and i am also in a wheelchair. I CAN'T GET SICK. I also can't go to a hotel b/c of my situation. My hubby and dog and I spent that weekend bundled up with two space heaters to keep warm. Which I had to buy. We have endless amounts of blankies, but the air itself was 20 deg. He came back on Mon, *fixed* it again. We had heat until the parts he had to order came in. Yeah, right. I called him EVERYDAY for 3 weeks and he NEVER did anything. Everytime, he said the part was *on order*. That first nite, he also said to call him when i got home from work and if i had no heat, he wld come right over to fix it. I left him 5 voice mails and he never answered until 9 pm. THEN, he said it was too late to come out. He did that twice, two weekends. I finally called a diff. place. They fixed it in 2 days.1 day to see what was wrong. They ord the part, it got here in 2 days. They came out 1 more time and fixed it in one hour. NEVER DO BUSINESS WITH JERRY'S HEATING/COOLING 740-446-8280 in GALLIPOLIS, OH 45631 They are unprofessional and simply, plain stupid. I would sue them for lost wages and health risks if I had extra money. LOSERS. Idon't care if you can't fix something, but don't lie to me and say the part is on order and never call me back.

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts
They handle labor-intensive tasks efficiently, equipping your lawn for seasonal changes without physically demanding work on your part.
Bermuda grass may be drought-resistant, but it still needs to be watered once or twice a week. The suggested amount of water Bermuda grass needs varies from season to season. Bermuda grass needs about 1 inch of water a week in summer, fall, and winter; it needs up to ¾ inch in spring.
No, carpetgrass and St. Augustine grass are two different species. However this is a very common misconception and you may even find St. Augustine grass is mislabeled as carpetgrass. Carpetgrass does not have as much shade tolerance as St. Augustine grass, and has narrower blades with an alternating pattern (while St. Augustine grass has an opposite pattern). St. Augustine grass doesn’t have the weedy, high seedheads that carpetgrass produces.
The growth of tall fescue grass often causes clumps of grass in your lawn. Avoid pulling up the clumps, as it won’t effectively remove them. Instead, dig out clumps and their roots when you notice them early in the growing season. Herbicides can also treat grass clumps, but they can also affect other plants you might not want to kill, so use them sparingly and always follow manufacturer instructions.
Longer lengths are always better for striping, so mowing your grass to between 2½ to 4 inches tall. More length allows for optimal bendiness, plus it helps your lawn stay healthier, too. Remember, never mow more than ⅓ of the grass height at once to keep your lawn looking green and healthy.
