We've moved many times–across town, across the state, and the country. Without a doubt, in all of those experiences, Premier Moving of Staunton (540-480-0602) was the best service we've ever had. Their team was prompt, professional, and polite. The team on moving day operated with speed, care and precision. It was clear within the first few minutes they had a plan, everyone knew their role, and they worked quickly to empty the house (on a steep incline and with many sets of stairs). Even our builder was surprised by the lack of any damage to walls or floors because the team was so careful. I would recommend these movers without hesitation and–though I hope never to move again–if I do, they will be my choice. Submitted by Tiffany Keaton. October 2024

If you’re looking for someone to remodel your home, Billy Campbell is your man! Billy hasn’t left Treeloft Village in years for a good reason. Neighbors keep signing him up after seeing his superior work, hearing about his integrity, and being charmed by his good nature. Billy beautifully remodeled my place at 29 Pinnacle Drive. The new fireplace is the highlight. Billy repurposed 100-plus-year-old wood to create a unique and charming centerpiece. In addition to his creative eye, Billy recognized and fixed structural issues, worked hard and efficiently, and was reasonably priced. I couldn’t be happier. Submitted by Bob Emery. October 2024

I would not hesitate to recommend him. Submitted by Bill Chapin. July 2024

If you need a new roof, I would like to recommend Quality Enterprise, 65 Whipporwill Way, Waynesboro. After a home inspection verified that we needed a new roof, we contacted Roy Robinson & Tim Bradley to submit a bid. Roy arrived with their estimate in hand. They did not need to walk the roof, measure, and calculate the supplies and time estimate because they used a satellite service to determine the time & costs. Other roofers had spent an hour or so measuring and inspecting. Photos provided by the home inspector helped pinpoint problem areas. The men and women who did the work quickly and efficiently did the work and cleaned up all debris in 3 1/2 days. I highly recommend this business. Contact them at 540-949-0566 or qeiroofing@gmail.com. Submitted by Carolyn Barrette. July 2024

Look no further for tree service! Upon the advice of a neighboring homeowners' association, we hired Weber Tree Service to trim back the trees surrounding our property. What's not to like? Kevin Weber promptly responded, was flexible, scheduled the work, and stayed in touch until the work day. An added touch was Kevin's exuberant personality. He and his crew were professional, did a great job, and left without a trace. The bill? More than reasonable! Call or text Kevin at 434-566-8501. Support this small and upcoming local business!

Daryl Morse (434-944-4378) has a dozen detailed recommendations in the WBB's directory from people who have used his help in their yards, but one point isn't as clear as it should be: Mr. Morse is professional. He listens. He's got pro equipment, a big, well-maintained truck with a large trailer, and he knows what he's doing, as we saw demonstrated recently when we needed our elaborate hedges brought under control. He's a hands-on businessman, but he has some good help in the summer. Submitted by Charles Batchelor. June 2024

On top of his expertise, he is good company, on time, and reasonable. Submitted by Mary Gurr. April 2022
I found Darryl Morse on the WBB Directory and used him to take down a couple of big dead and dying trees that could fall and damage both my mountain home and possibly my neighbors. He did a yeoman’s job at a fair price, took care of the debris, and left things cleaner and neater than before he started. He even took out a couple of smaller dead trees as a “bonus” to me without my requesting it nor did he charge extra for it. I can wholeheartedly recommend him if you are in need of his services. Submitted by Gary Banas. March 2022

I heartily recommend Daryl Morse for your tree work. He has helped me for years; he cuts down and breaks up limbs, trims, or whatever is needed at that time. He either fills a dump truck with all the limbs or brings his shredder. He has a powerful chainsaw that seems as if it is cutting through butter. I always buy mulch from him, too—he has the best price and dependable delivery. He can spread mulch, seed, cut grass, bush hog—you name it. He’ll also haul away your own piles of brush.
