I called Open Sesame because our garage door kept popping back up when it neared the bottom. I looked at the rail and it was warped, causing the door to go back up when it hit the dent. I called Open Sesame on a Monday morning and they were at my house by noon that day and had replaced the vertical rail that was warped. They were efficient and very reasonably priced. They were great to work with and I would highly recommend them to anyone.

We recently experienced water pooling in our shower stall when we showered. The water would eventually go down after the water was shut off, but we quickly realized we had a clogged drain that needed to be snaked. I called 4 different plumbers from Homestars and all of them said they would need to assess the job before giving a quote. I called three other plumbers I saw advertised in the Village Post and they all gave quotes. One of them was Ari from Levstein and Stern who not only came in with the most reasonable quote (by a significant amount) but said he could come the next day (Saturday). He showed up on time and did exactly what he said he would do for the price he quoted. While he was at the house we said we had a similar problem with the sink and he immediately recognized that it was a problem with the drain plug and replaced it immediately (he had a spare part on his truck). Now both the shower and the sink both drain perfectly and we're very pleased with the result. I would highly recommend Levstein and Stern to anyone with a plumbing issue. We will be calling Ari Levstein the next time we need a plumber.

We purchased a home in the fall and when winter set in we found the front two bedrooms were colder than the other rooms. We had a few insulation companies take a look, but they were very expensive and said they couldn't get to my job for a few weeks. I called Knox Insulation and they came two days later with their equipment to re-insulate the attic. Because of a squirrel problem that the previous owner had, the fiberglass insulation was unevenly dispersed and there were bare spots above the cold rooms. Knox arrived on time and finished the job in a few hours. They were polite and respectful of our house and were extremely clean. They left no mess and completed the job for the quoted price (which was more reasonable than their competitors), doing all that they promised. We noticed a positive difference immediately when they left and the house is much warmer than before. Kent Knox and his team are extremely professional and a wonderful contractors to work with. They are very trustworthy and I would highly recommend Knox to anyone with an insulation problem. Thank you Knox for making our home more comfortable!
