K & R Construction – 434-996-2363

,

I would like to recommend KR Construction (krconstruction02@yahoo.com) for custom carpentry. We used this Faber, Va.-based business in the fall of 2019. They created kitchen cabinets from scratch to fit under our granite countertop. In addition, they created matching doors and drawer fronts for the rest of our cabinets. The quality of the work was superb. My only word of caution is that it took months for them to start our work; they were extremely busy. Maureen Moore. July 2020

I would like to recommend Russ Anderson for woodwork of all types. His specialty is custom cabinetry, but if any project involves woodworking, give him a call. We had an outdoor tabletop that was falling apart; he created a lovely new one of marine grade wood. We needed some kitchen cabinets built to exactly match existing cabinets; he did a fabulous job. He knows everything about kitchen cabinetry and made recommendations for improvements that we didn't even know existed. Our next project with him will be building a nicer fireplace surround and mantle. He is enjoyable to work with and his prices are reasonable. Everything he does is custom -- if you have an idea of what you want, he can probably make it happen and do it beautifully.

Cenvar Roofing of Charlottesville came out and replaced two older vent flashings that appeared to have a small leak. Service was quick and the price was reasonable. They replaced older shingles around the vent with a close match. Contact was Caleb Heuneman at 434-484-0048. Submitted by Thomas Willis. April 2021.

Cenvar Roofing out of Lynchburg (434-841-8898) did a great job for us. We had called three other roofers to give us estimates and none showed up. We called and they were here the next day. The estimate was good and they used great materials. They got us on the schedule and showed up when they said they would. Worked from 8-8 and we now have a beautiful new roof. Highly highly recommend them. James Kitchen. July 2020

Lotts Appliance Repair - 540-337-3445

We had our first experience with Lotts Appliance repair service (540-337-3445) and were pleased. The Stuarts Draft-based service came out just a day after we called about our refrigerator's recalcitrant ice maker and "a funny noise" in the top. They rapidly diagnosed both issues on their first visit. Their second visit to put the parts in place took only minutes. They arrived on time and the bill was reasonable. They tell me they're happy to serve Wintergreen's valley and mountain homeowners. Charles Batchelor July 2020

Lotts Appliance Repair, Stuarts Draft, 540-337-3445. They were called after the first repair people could not do the job. Excellent repair. Call them first! Bonnie Jefferson, 2017

Augusta Aluminum Gutterworks 540-280-6948

We used Augusta Aluminum Gutterworks last year. Phone number is (540) 280-6948. Cooper and Cody Coffey were great. Professional, efficient, and very nice young men. They took off our old gutter guards which were useless and cleaned out all our gutters; they have a high roofline too!. They cleaned up after themselves and gave us a good price. Maria Spence.

• We would like to recommend Andy Burdetsky for any window cleaning. He did a beautiful job on our house, which includes very high windows in the living room. His number is 571-436-0946. Carol & Tim Haden. 2017

* If you need someone to clean your windows, I highly recommend Andy Burdetsky who recently cleaned our windows and screens. If the bulletin came with a soundtrack, you'd be listening to "I Can See Clearly Now" as you read this. Andy and his wife Krista worked diligently and stealthily around us and our dogs as if we weren't even in the house. Andy is very conscientious, professionial, reliable and personable. We did have some screens that were on their last leg and discovered that Andy also replaces the mesh on screens; he came back a few weeks later to do just that and the result was awesome. Costs for the cleaning and screen repair services were very reasonable. Contact Andy at 434-361-2522 or 571-436-0946. Submitted by Helen Lindsay. 2018

Matt Miner - 434-531-4734

I highly recommend Matt Miner (Taylor Tree Service- 434-531-4734) for tree removal. He took down two large red oaks, one of which was located between two homes. Matt and his crew were professional and friendly and the clean-up exceeded my expectations. Submitted by Stuart Meyerson. November 2022

We just had a very tall ash tree taken down by Matt Miner and his crew. The tree was infested with the emerald ash borer and was positioned to fall on our roof during one of the spring storms. It was over 100 feet tall and probably 3 feet across at the base. Matt got the job done in spite of high winds. The job came in on estimate and the site was cleared completely. An exceptionally professional job. Taylor Tree Service. Text him at 434-531-4734. Submitted by Doreen and Mark Stapleton. April 2020

We had some trees that were threatening the structure so I called Matt Miner 434-531-4734. We are very pleased with his work. Clearly a professional as not a twig landed on the home. If you need tree work don’t waste your time calling anyone else. Rates are reasonable and the site was clean after. Submitted by Dave and Jessica Brown, November 2018
