I have used Lynden Sheet Metal for 3 major installations and could NOT be happier with the results…read more They were NOT the cheapest but there price was not out of line. Here is the reason, I started with them. When we moved here in 2021, I called them and 4 of their competitors. LSM and Marrs are the only two that responded. it came down to availability and trust. Trust was from multiple people that I know that gave me a great review and I am really happy i listened to them. Since then, we had them on two additional installs and a couple service calls and they have been consistently top notch. The installs have consisted of mini-splits as well as Heating and Airconditioning units so our experience is not just one type of install. Next will be Gas fireplaces in our home. I HIGHLY recommend them!

He and his crew will build you a beautiful fence at a very competitive price! The entire team takes pride in their work and are very detail oriented.

Every one of the guys was an absolute pleasure! We would highly recommend, so pleased with their work! Did I mention that this entire job was just UNDER 2 days??

If I could give zero stars, I would. Dry Guys Restoration and Optimus Property Solutions have left…read moreus physically sick, financially devastated (over $10,000 lost), and displaced from our home -- twice. We moved into our apartment in late October 2024 and almost immediately found severe water damage, black mold, and extreme humidity. The discoveries spiraled into CAT3 mold, major water damage, and rotted sills/studs in the wall, despite property management claiming the apartment to be mold free, leak free, clean, and inspected prior to moving in. Dry Guys "inspected" the unit on November 8, 2024 -- and 170 days later, the repairs are still incomplete. I warned both companies about my autoimmune disease, epilepsy, and health sensitivities to mold -- but they ignored it. I ended up hospitalized during this ordeal. Dry Guys' workmanship was horrific: * Flooring was incorrectly installed with gaps sloppily filled with caulk. * Countertops were installed chipped and left sticky with residue. * Plumbing failed repeatedly -- the garbage disposal didn't work, the sink leaked, the faucet wasn't installed correctly. * They built the countertop too short, then shaved down the support beam to force fit our dishwasher (likely compromising its stability). * Containment was a joke: the barriers failed repeatedly, letting dust and spores spread through our entire apartment. During the restoration process, the subfloor was left exposed, we had no access to our kitchen for months, and temperatures dropped during winter -- yet neither company declared the unit uninhabitable, even when it legally was. Kashia from Optimus Property Solutions told us they couldn't do anymore than refund rent and some cleaning fees, stating, "the owner has put thousands and thousands of dollars into repairs" -- while the owner publicly bragged on Instagram about turning a $400k purchase into a $1 million valuation on our complex. His website bio even highlights how he became a millionaire at 32. Clearly, protecting profits mattered more than protecting tenant safety. After a "alleged" second leak surfaced, the companies ignored us again -- refusing to open walls, ignoring dripping sounds and mold smells, and brushing off standing water beneath the apartment. We were told, there's no leak, not our problem -- while condensation puddled on our windows, the smell once again destroyed our items, our clothing grew wet inside drawers, and puddles gathered under our apartment. In short: * Dry Guys Restoration's work was rushed, unsafe, and incomplete. *Dry Guys left a complete mess behind that I'm still cleaning up to this day, and wouldn't properly fix the work they had poorly executed. They refunded $294, which I had to fight for, it took forever to get the check, and doesn't begin to cover for our time, emotional distress, sickness, or damages. * Optimus Property Solutions protected profits over tenant health and legal responsibilities. * We were left sick, homeless, financially drained, and traumatized while the "alleged" leak is still in our apartment and NO ONE is taking responsibility or trying to fix it. Avoid these companies at all costs if you care about your health, safety, or sanity. *Will update with any changes* *This post reflects my personal experience and opinions*

We needed a new hot water heater. We spoke with the manager on the telephone. He was excellent and…read moreprovided very good information and a reasonable quote. Also gave excellent guidance on coordinating an electrician for the wiring for our new electric water heater. The scheduling was very prompt. Two plumbers came the next day after the electrician did the wiring. I felt that the cost of the new water heater and installation was very reasonable. My only dissatisfaction was that one of the plumbers was not diligent about proper COVID-19 precautions and often did not wear a mask inside our home. Our water heater is located inside our house. This plumber also used our bathroom without first asking and did not wear his mask. I had to directly request that he kept his mask on. I wanted to let the manager know about this lack of CoVid precautions and left several messages to discuss this, instead of leaving a less than sterling review on Yelp. But he never got back to me.

You can trust Marv's Plumbing…read more My house is 100 years old - and so is the plumbing:) Since I bought the house, I have had drainage issues, basement problems, water main questions, sewage backups and storm water run off that didn't really run off! I've hired countless plumbers to help me. Then, a friend recommended Marvs! Dave came to the rescue, after two of my sump pumps stopped working and I was shop vac-ing water for days. He realized the pumps were not only broken but they were the wrong pumps. He installed new ones as well as alarms so that if the power went out (or for any other reason the pumps stopped working)-- I would know! He was generous with his time and explained what was going on. He sent someone out to check on it the next day. His bill was very reasonable. In this climate, water is a constant threat to our homes and property and we must be proactive. Don't worry, though. Let the experts handle it! Marv's plumbing has the answers for you!

Noticed a few with damage from strapping. Once I opened the load, 10 of 38 boards had serious scratches, some had imbedded rocks, 3 of 4 fascia not usable..at $100 plus each, handling in the supply chain and shipping leaves a lot to be desired.

I have mixed feelings bout Northwest Energy Systems (NES). I used them 3 times, once to install a…read morewater heater (great experience; original review), a second time to repair a gas leak (things went terribly wrong), a third time to investigate this oily burnt foul smell in the kitchen (dissatisfied). PROS + Most of the people at NES are nice. Chris in Sales is professional and easy to work with. Dan, the own, went out of his way to make things right when my gas leak repair went REALLY bad. CONS - When I had a gas leak in the garage, this one technician misdiagnosed and replaced a gas pipe that was not leaking. A few hours after the technician left, I called them to ask to send the technician back as I was still smelling gas in the garage. The receptionist REFUSED to send him back because she did not believe I was still smelling gas. As it turned out, the technician had replaced a line that was not leaking. After spending several hours, the technician finally located where it's really leaking. Unfortunately, this is not the end of my ordeal. They put a temporary hookup so that I can at least use the water heater before they can fix the leak on a later day. Then, the temporary hookup leaked! It was after hours, but I called NES and left a message for the on-call person. I ended up having to call the Cascade Natural Gas emergency line as I did not receive a call back, and Cascade Natural Gas shut off my main gas line. Because of the misdiagnosis and the failure to respond to my after-hour request, Dan, the owner, gave me his personal cell number in case I have difficulty reaching them. - The same technician was sent to my house a couple days ago when I requested to investigate the foul smell I noticed in the kitchen. Ok, the previous time, he was reluctant to investigate the issue any further as he thought he had fixed the leak. This time as well, he was reluctant to do anything. First thing he said was "I don't know what to tell you." So, I asked him to at least check for a gas leak. 10 minutes later he left, and I received a bill for $92.40 ($85 trip charge plus tax). As I requested a service call, I did pay (the entire bill), but I expressed to the office my concerns about this technician's unwillingness to help me TWICE. I am not even calling this technician incompetent, but it's a waste of money at least if he's not willing to help his customers. The office promised me to send someone else in the future. It is my Yelp review policy not to name names to avoid "public shaming." However, if you're considering to hire NES and want to know which technician I'm talking about, please PM me. I can share the information in private. ************************************************************ If you found my review helpful, don't forget to hit "useful" and/or "cool"!
