Heating, A/C

Tom Herner Heating & Air Conditioning
362-1056

07/03 - Tom fixed our downstairs heating system after we'd paid another company $400 over three visits (they never fixed it). That's why he was the first one we called when our upstairs air conditioning system died. He bid for a replacement system, explaining each of his recommendations. We priced it with two other companies who validated everything Tom said and basically came in at a similar price. He did a great job installing and adjusting the new system. We recommend him for quality, honesty, reliability and reasonable pricing. (David and Dawn Ronco, The Glen)

BTM Landscape Services

Dec’11

Taylor Made Landscaping
Owner: Mike Broughton / 669-1060

Mike does general landscaping, but he's a real find when it comes to drainage problems. Over the last 4-5 years, I've had people come in to fix the drainage problems in my side yard 2 times with little success. Mike came over, quickly solved the existing problem and took steps to prevent it from happening again. He also warrants his work for 5 years so he's motivated to do it right. He did a fantastic job. Since then, I've had him come back and lay a flagstone path for me. Again, he was courteous and educated me/worked with me to settle on the right materials/look/cost for the job. I'm very happy with the final product. Mike lives in Harrington Pines, so he's very accessible. He's also responsive, courteous and affordable. I recommend him highly. (Stacey Baer, The Woods)

Home Sweet Home
844-2366
We are highly recommending Kevin Kilmer's painting company Home Sweet Home Painting.  Kevin's men were painting another house down the street when we stopped to talk with the home owner. The home owner had researched the company after noticing what a great job they did with two other homes they painted in the same area.  We obtained a free estimate from Kevin and decided to have them paint our house in August 2007.  They power washed the house and did all the necessary prep work, calking and priming.  He used top quality long lasting calk and used an oil based primer on trim work to keep the wood from rotting.  They also used top quality Sherwin Williams paint.  Kevin did not require a deposit and did not collect the money until the job was completed to our satisfaction.  The paint job is excellent but the most impressive part was the carpentry.  Our front porch was rotted in addition to all of the trim work around the large window in front of the home.  The carpenters located and repaired the problem and replaced all of the trim work.  Home Sweet Home Painting also paints home interiors.  We are very satisfied with the entire job.   (Mark Grimaldi, The Arbor).
 

Michael J. Stanley Painting Contractor
621-1861 (cell) or 790-0102

(05-2011) Michael Stanley recently painted the outside of our house. We interviewed a number of painters and painting companies before deciding on him. He was reliable in his communications, responded to calls promptly had fair and reasonable fees. We chose him because is an independent contractor and craftsman and he does the work himself, along with his partner Jed. We knew that the person we made arrangements with would be on site and accessible to us each day. / Michael and Jed initially inspected the wood and exterior of the house prior to painting. They made repairs to woodwork and carpentry themselves. I liked that we were dealing with the same 2 people throughout the preliminary work as well as through the painting process. We didn't have a lot of different people coming to work here ... we had the same 2 faces each day and that was reassuring! Michael made many very helpful suggestions about colors and added features that would enhance the appearance and value of our home. His many years of experience shone through here and we very much appreciated his knowledge and suggestions. We highly recommend Michael Stanley as an honest, reliable and very competent company and we WILL make use of his services in the future (Suzanne and Herb Boswell, The Downs)

07/02 - Mr. Stanley did an excellent job painting the exterior of my house (July 2002) which included replacing all rotten wood trim and siding. He painted three houses on Jarden Court (June & July 2002) and all three of us are very satisfied with his work. Mr. Michael Stanley used 25 year warranty paint and caulk. He did not require ANY deposit and would not collect his money until I was completely satisfied with the paint job (he corrected all minor deficiencies I found). He has also indicated he paints the interiors of homes as well. (Chuck Pringle, The Commons)

Quality Plus Professional Painting - Harold Jones
431-0758 Office / 868-4169 Mobile

04/04 - Mr. Jones and his team came to paint the exterior of our house and did a great job! They power washed, scraped peeling paint, primed, caulked and painted. They will also do light carpentry if needed. They were fast, finishing the job in 2 days and made sure that they cleaned up after themselves. There was nothing for me to do but admire their work after they left. I highly recommend this company for any paint job that you may have. Mr. Harold was very knowledgeble and professional and the price was reasonable. (Wyeleen Shaban, The Vale)
