Protest all they want. Without blocking streets and public places. That’s what sidewalks and state capitols are for. ...

Jefferson Parish area by any chance? Sounds like someone responsible and.reliable. I will be looking for that for full fence replacement, deck with cover build and some other things....

Thanks, sounds like it. I’m nearing retirement within 6 to 10 years so will take time to learn to do things. I guess I am just used to when you’d call someone to make a repair and it’s done. ...

A lot of them will go out of business bc more folks will become DIYs.
Thank you all for your responses. Seems to be industry standard. But re smaller jobs, it at least shows you whom not to call for the big jobs. Be honest it’s not worth the while vs “we repair, big or small.” This was about...

Oh, I know. And I wouldn’t expect free. I don’t use people and always pay for any repairs done. I just meant little things like ceiling fans being hanged or whatever, that my friends can do easily. And I always offer pay. One can do electrical work even, and I would never ask him to do anything ...

I wish I could. But I’m female and feel it’s beyond my area of ability. Maybe I should learn! Saw a woman who youtubed fence repair and did it. But I need posts in ground, too. I have male friends who could do it, but really don’t want to, but I hate to put it on anyone in case something goes wro...

Posted by Dixie2023 on 4/29/24 at 8:07 am
I need about 1/2 of a fence and plies replaced. First guy wanted $5k to do the entire length of 60 ft. and completely disregarded what I need. Don’t need the whole thing done. Fencing companies scream all day long on Fb community page they need work, but then they don’t show to take a look when I ...

Posted by Dixie2023 on 4/29/24 at 7:58 am
We are being played. Every business owner under the sun is making the excuse to rob us. It’s time to close the wallet, recession or not. I don’t tip either unless sit down service. And it’s 20% bf tax, if exemplary service. More if a small bill. I no longer care about subsidizing servers. It’s ...
