This past Friday we had the opportunity to serve a fine family in the Three Rivers area. They have a beautiful home in a park like setting out in the country, surrounded by woods and flowers and lots of wildlife. One of the issues facing homes located in an area where there are many trees is leaf-filled gutters, and this 2 story home was no exception. Not only did Jon rid the gutters of the leaves, sticks, and other debris clogging the gutter trough, he also cleared the downspouts of anything impeding water flow on its trek away from the house. By ensuring that water was indeed going down the spouts, he discovered that one of the buried drain tiles was not taking the water away from the house due to a clog - an issue that could have caused severe water damage to the basement or foundation. Jon was able to track down and remove the clog from the buried pipe, thus allowing for normal flow once again. The owners also had a leak in one of the gutters that they asked to have looked at. Upon inspection, it was discovered that two of the corner seams had separated, resulting in water running out of the gutter right next to the front porch steps. A little flexible silicon on the seams, and the gutter is good as new!

After considering the level of service they received on the first job - and the extremely fair cost of the service - they asked if we could repair an exterior light fixture for them. A light bulb had broken off at the base and the socket had been damaged while trying to remove it. Jon agreed to look at it to see if he could help. The homeowners were very concerned with having to replace the fixture because they would have to try and match it up to the 2 other (12 year old) fixtures, or worse yet, have to replace all 3 fixtures. You can imagine the potential cost of this! Well, to make a long story short, Jon was able to replace the lamp socket and had their old fixture working like new in no time; and for a fraction of the cost of replacing the fixture!

Do you have an item that you've been putting off replacing because of the inherent cost? Give us a call. Maybe it won't have to be replaced at all! We can give you an honest evaluation of what your options are.

Testimonial- L. B. Wolcottville, IN

This young man has done many jobs for me around my home. He is quick and the one I call when I have jobs needing taken care of that I am unable to do. The following is a brief list of some of the things he has done.
~He brought my laundry room up to the main floor from the basement. This included tearing out a closet and laundry chute, installing a stack washer/dryer, and repainting the walls, trim, and vanity. What a difference!
~The landscaping has had his touch several times. He removed overgrown bushes and added new plants. The other bushes have been trimmed and the sidewalks edged.
~My garage catches lots of overflow from the house, and he has came in cleaned out, organized and made new shelves.
~He has installed a new water softener and brings me salt.
~Even little jobs help me out such as light bulbs changed, refrigerator door seal replaced, cleaned gutters and three doors replaced to make my older home more updated.
~Oil changes for my vehicle are done right here at my home, and other maintenance for my van. So convenient!

He cleans up the messes, works efficiently and always leaves me pleased with the ending result. Jon is my go to guy for all my home repairs, remodels, outside care, and auto care needs. Thanks for all that you do!

Wood Cutting and Clearing


This time of year, some may be preparing to fire up their wood stoves to heat their homes this winter. We have done that already and just love the warmth of wood heat. One of our neighbors wanted his woods cleaned out of dead trees, which works out perfectly for us because we know just the place to take the wood-our wood pile. This is another service that we offer. Cleaning out a woods of all the dead and fallen trees can be time consuming but looks so much nicer when finished.

Jon has the gear, the know how, and enjoys getting outdoors and using his chainsaw.
This is something I remember doing when I was a little girl. My dad would take me and my brother along when he cut wood, and we would build forts and use our imaginations in the deep dark forest. But it wasn't all play for us. We had to help load the wood into the truck and then pile it when we got home. This is something that we want our children to learn as well. It is so good to have children help, and I can remember it being fun. Little did I know that my parents were teaching me how to work and do what needed to be done in the family. That is what we want to instill in our children too. They love going to the woods with their Papa, and are becoming good little helpers.

This day of wood cutting came to a close. Time to pack up and head home where supper awaits. I wouldn't want my children following anybody else so closely as their Papa. If they walk in his footsteps, they will grow up to become respectful young adults who know how to work and serve others. That is one of our goals and if they can have fun learning it, then that is even better.
