Wintergreen Hardware 434-361-1919

I don't recall a time when Danny Watson or his crew at Wintergreen Hardware didn't have what we needed for a household repair. The True Value hardware store in Nellysford has come up with parts to connect an LP stove, install an oddball kitchen sink, and solve an electrical problem. But, they don't have a 2 by 4, right? Wrong. You'll find bait for mice and other pest control products that work. You can buy just one nail, bolt or screw there. Paints, stains of every type. It's where I shop for grass seed, fertilizer, mulch and landscaping rock. Chain, rope, and wire is custom cut. Lots of flashlights. I needed a can of tennis balls; they had it. Best of all, they see themselves as problem solvers. (When I needed a 5-inch wide piece of PVC pipe that was 10-inches long and a cap for each end, it was no problem for Wintergreen Hardware.) They don't mind phone calls asking if they have what you need; call 434-361-1919. Charles Batchelor.

Chad Pugh - 434-906-9270

• Chad Pugh operates a small handyman & lawn care service. After meeting with him we hired him for the job and found him to be courteous, exactly on time each day and extremely conscientious and careful with our furnishings. We were delighted with him. We used his services twice. The first time he moved our things into storage and the second time he moved those items into our new house. Some of our furniture is very heavy and awkward to handle but he and his helper moved it all without a single mishap. Once the furniture was moved into place as directed by us, they then spent a couple of days working in our new yard trimming and raking and such. Again, we were very pleased. We highly recommend Chad and his assistant - Bubba, for handyman and lawn services - they are reliable very reasonable and as a plus, very personable. You can reach Chad by calling 434 906-9270

• I would like to recommend Chad Pugh (Pughs Landscaping and Handyman services) 434-906-9270 for any landscaping and/or handyman services required. There is no job too big or too small for them. They are very mindful in terms of animals, so for the animal lovers out there, these are the guys to engage! Magda Brink and others
