He is a true professional, having been in this business for 11 years, 10 of which are working for his own company. He is so good that he does not need to advertise, relying instead on a steady stream of business from word of mouth referrals.

Cable - High Speed.
Vendor: Verizon FiOS - phone: 888 438 -1367
We subscribed to the bundled package - phone, TV, and high speed Internet plus we got the home media DVR and HBO premium service. So far we have been quite impressed with everything. We called and placed an order on Thursday, cable was run above ground from the street to our home on Monday, installation was Tuesday, and the above ground wire was buried on Thursday.Everything occurred as explained to us and on time. We even received two follow up calls to make sure we were happy with the service.
Installation took about 6 hours - but was professional and unobtrusive. The box where the wires enter our home is on the master bedroom side of the house. Normally the battery back up is installed near that box - but the technician suggested that we not locate the back up in the bedroom or even in the closet since it will continuously beep if there is a power outage. This meant that he had to run wires in the attic to the opposite side of the house to the garage where he installed the battery back up. I was impressed that he did not take the easy way out but advised us of a possible noise issue even though it meant extra work for him. Part of the package is a combination modem/router and hook up of up to two computers to the Internet. The desktop computer was no issue, but our technician had difficulty setting up the wireless connection to our laptop. But with one call to the customer service department, they had my laptop up and running within minutes.
I would highly recommend Verizon Fios service - phone is clearer, TV reception is excellent, and Internet is fast, plus we are saving $80-100 per month.
Residents: Linda Slack @ 921-2026 07/07
Note: One resident indicated dissatisfaction with the amount of time it took Verizon to bury the cable. 11/07
Vendor: Verizon FiOS - phone: 888 438 - 1367
I just had the FiOS service hooked up. It is far superior to comcast in picture quality. The internet is equally fast. The price is 15% cheaper than Comcast. I wonder why I waited so long.
Resident: Jeff Twigg @ 925 - 7489 06/07
Vendor: Verizon FiOS - Phone # 1 888 438-1367 to get pricing.
We installed Verizon FiOS in April 07. I would only look into FIOS TV service if one has an HD TV. FiOS takes about 4-6 hours to install and one might need the box to be installed outside of the house. For us, they were able to install it inside the garage. Verizon offers you a lot but I personally don't need all the extras they give you. We have had Comcasst cable, satellite TV and now Verizon. I liked satellite the least. We had Verizon as an Internet carrier so it was cost effective for us to switch to Verizon FiOS.
Residents: Mindy & Mark Hellman @ 924-2519 06/07
Vendor: Verizon FiOS - Phone 1-888-438-3467
We subscribed to the "Bundle Package". That is Internet, Cable TV and long distance telephone. It is $99 a month, but of course there are the extra service fees that come with any telephone service. Verizon did a neat job. They called to confirm before they came, came on time, they explained all the systems clearly and answered any questions we had. They did the outside work one day and the inside work the next. The internet is fast and easy to negotiate. The cable TV is great. We have many more channels than we had previously.
Residents: Ed&Fran Plankey @ 929-1367 06/07
Vendor: Verizon FiOS - Phone: 1-888-438-1367
I had Verizon FiOS service installed in June 07. I noticed that the phone reception is now much louder and clearer. On the internet, downloading is a little faster than before with DSL. I signed up for a one-year promotion of phone and internet service as a package. The total price is about the same as I was paying previously for phone and DSL service with Verizon. The installation was very professional and it included a router that permits wireless service to a laptop, if I should ever get one. I was told there would be a one-time
installation charge of $19.95, which now seems to be low in view of all the work
that was done. Our total monthly charge is $70.76. This is for a package that includes
Verizon internet service and unlimited local and long distance phone calls.
One peculiarity with FiOS is that it requires house power to operate, even for wired
phones. There is a backip battery in the garage that will maintain power for the
phones for abour 4 hours in case of a power failure.

Carpet Cleaning.
Vendor: Greenway Carpet Care, Contact Dave Eschenbach 941-228-1917 www.greenwaycarpet.com

Hurricane Protection.
Vendor: Sarasota Glass & Mirror; Contact: Scott Brigham @ (941) 803-0820; http://www.sarasotaglass.com
Independent Distributors for PGT Industries. Better Business Bureau Rating of A+ and it is not ‘grade inflation’. I had researched cohort of hurricane/wind and impact resistant windows/doors manufacturers and settled on PGT WinGuard products. Went to SG & M with list of my homes windows and doors that were to be retrofitted (the whole house) with their approximate measurements. Helped by Scott Brigham (owner) who was forthright and informative, addressing all my questions with clarity and respect and at no time did I feel rushed in that process. He got back to me in a timely fashion with a proposal that was detailed, comprehensive, and competitive. Installers could not have been more professional--they worked without stop, other than a lunch break, from the time they arrived to the time they left, hushed discussions among them as they tackled one opening after another. At the end of the day, other than new windows in place, there was no telltale cue of the major deconstruction/construction that had taken place as they cleaned up without a spot missed. Their workmanship was outstanding, and each day they kept us abreast of their progress, the schedule of work for the next visit, and, what truly impressed me, pointed out without prompting any imperfections in a PGT product installed that would require a replacement. Recommend Sarasota Glass & Mirror without hesitation.

We had a very pleasurable experience with all the people we came in contact with. The repair to our roof was a leak in one of the ridge vents. They repaired this leak, and did a once-over on the rest of the roof for prevenative measures. Their costs were quite reasonable
Also.
Resident: Tim & Lisa Hanewich 923-9388
Gary's Roofing went well beyond just repairing a leak. They restored three large areas of our 20-year old roof. They sent us 36 color photos of the areas needing work as well as of the work in progress. They replaced rusted vents and even repaird an area, free of charge, which was not in the original work proposal.

Resident: Milke & Karen Bigner 4523 Deer Trail Blvd. 921-1899
We had our flat roof on our Villas replaced - a challenging assignment. Tim Ackerland's price/produicts were competitive (he included a valuable service at no charge), his advise and recommendations were the most thoughtful of two other recommended contractors, and the work was done with care and in a highly professional manner. His staff were responsive and even came back to be sure everything was completed to my satisfaction. Gary's and Tim are at the top of my list for any future roof services. 9/10
Also
Last month, my husband and I discovered two leaks in our roof, one in the garage and another in the main bathr oom. Immediately we checked the vendor's list, and we decided to call Gary's Roofing, since this company had many very positive responses from the Deer Creek
residents. The two gentlemen who came to our house the same day that we called, were very professional, very knowledgeable , and very honest. They showed us on their iPad the rotted wood and all the damage that had occurred on our roof. They explained clearly and slowly how they were going to repair the two leaks. They gave us the price, which in our estimation, seemed very fair for all the work that the job entailed . The workers came few days later and labored all day for almost a week , and did a superb job. We were so satisfied and so pleased that we are going to have Gary's Roofing company check our roof once a year, from now on. Thank you, Gary's Roofing!!!

Vendor: O’Hara’s Window Service 379–6315
I utilized O'Hara's Window Service to repair a 3-track, sliding glass door. The middle pane came off the track and in getting wedged, the glass pane separated from the door frame. It was, to me, a precarious situation. I called O'Hara's and they provided same-day service, did a fine job and the price was very reasonable, much less than I expected.
O'Hara's was also highly recommended by Wayne Sanders - realtor
