Ally Plumbing was more than fantastic. I received multiple quotes to replace my hot water heater…read moreand selected them. When they went to install the new heater they ran into a significant unforeseen condition. Multiple different people had to come to my house / the project to evaluate the issue. All of them were polite, professional, and responsive. Ally Plumbing quickly found a solution to the unforeseen condition and were able to execute the change quickly. They were in a position where they could easily have taken advantage of me, but instead chose kindness, understanding, and professionalism to resolve the issue. On top of all this, I learned they are a local business. Honestly, I have been recommending them to everyone that needs a plumber since my unfortunate incident. They are simply the best.

We used Titan for two home inspections as we were house shopping, with two different inspectors…read more They both proved to be knowledgeable and incredibly thorough, catching things that were missed even on a home that had a pre inspection. The reports are exhaustive, and they provide lots of details on what's okay or not, and any action to be taken. No home is perfect, but we were able to purchase with a lot more confidence in what we were getting, which helps to take the stress down on a very very stressful time.

Per report, roof was still OK, not needing new roof immediately. Titan never got onto roof, only used a drone. Thankfully, I got my own inspection with a different company before deciding to purchase home. My inspector, who did get on roof, discovered extensive damage to roof to include water leaking into attic in several places. This inspector noted that roof needs replacement immediately. This damage was never listed on Titan report. Also, furnace was not Ok. It had not been inspected for 2 years and needed to be replaced. In addition, Titan report never mentioned water under house and some repairs needed there. While Titan used pictures and report looked good, I would have bought a house that needed thousands of dollars in repairs had I relied on their report.

I am beyond happy to have found Gallant Home Inspection. The owner, Micheal, answered my email…read morepromptly and politely, and was able to accommodate my extremely short timeframe for an inspection at a reasonable cost. He thoroughly and meticulously answered my questions, showed my husband and I potential issues, and we had an on-site report before we left the house. Due to his diligence, my family avoided purchasing a home with otherwise unknown water damage and potential foundation issues. We had a final report before 7pm same day. When we found another property, I immediately contacted him to perform a pre-inspection to strengthen our offer. Again, he was thorough, meticulous, polite and professional. Due to his report, my family is confident in the safety of the house. I feel like we were more than a customer to him and that he was truly looking out for us as a family. I recommend Gallant to anyone needing an inspection.

i went in to metropolitan appliance on memorial day weekend and had done my online research and was…read morepretty certain what i wanted in terms of a replacement slide in stove. jacob a approached me and ended up helping me. we spent over an hour talking about options and discussing standard coil vs induction/glass top. i wasn't going to go that route but jacob is very thorough and not pushy at all; multiple times he stated that his goal was for me to purchase something i felt comfortable with and would be happy to own. i appreciated that. ultimately i decided to go with a frigidaire model that was a drastic improvement on the stove/oven i've lived with for two decades. he took care of the payment paperwork, the scheduling of delivery which had to wait until now and also all the communication between us. he was also kind enough to send a follow up email alerting me to being eligible for a rebate based on the model i had chosen. today, the delivery folks showed up within the stated window and i'll just say that the tracking system clients are sent to know when to expect the delivery is magic! it helped a lot to be prepared and to have cleared the adjacent space but it left no guessing for when they would arrive. jorge and his teammate (sorry, i didn't catch his name) were professional and efficient. they knew how to handle the extrication of the old appliance, how to set up the new one and insure it was level, and they walked me through basic operating instructions. all told (and i haven't yet used the appliance) i have been very happy with the level of service and courteous communication from this business. it makes me want to provide their name to others who are in the appliance market and to use them again when i next need a replacement.

Here's a very special Little Public Library:…read more Central Tacoma FREE RADICAL Media Exchange http://www.flickr.com/photos/68010601@N03/7569281658/lightbox/ It was born when the nearby Martin Luther King Jr Tacoma Public Library branch was closed. The Hilltop is full of all sorts of innovative people, re-inventing and invigorating the area. Actually, this is a little West of Hilltop proper, but the Hilltop can-do spirit carries over. The steward of this LPL, an artist named RR Anderson, created this amazing free resource. Unusual in many ways, this LPL is a line of shelves down an alley way. The shelves have a wonderful provenance; they're donated from the defunct Stadium Video. The offerings here are unusual and fantastic as well. In addition to books, they have zines, dvds, mix tapes and cds. The kids and I are going by today to bring a bunch of books for MLK day....and I'm hoping to find some zines in exchange! Make sure to stop by, bring some media and get some! Hats off to Little Public Library #666, Central Tacoma's FREE RADICAL Media Exchange!!! Diabolically resourceful.

I just think this is such a cool idea to get the community engaged and share the gift of reading…read morewith anyone who is able to read and find this little free library station. The directions are totally correct. The pinpoint on the Yelp app is incorrect as it has this closer to Peck Athletic Field. I just got on S Oakes then turned onto S 17th St and there is a little alley way before you hit S Andersen. I was a little scared to drive down the alley way because I didn't know if you could drive down it or if you had to park and get out and walk to the library. The alley is one car length wide with hidden driveways so drive carefully and look to see if someone is coming up the alley in your direction. Also, if you drive too fast you'll probably miss the library. I was totally shocked by how well put together this little station is. It has more of a selection than the other library on N Oakes. There is a little walk way where you can scan the latest additions to the library or add a few items of your own. I think there is some signage that notes where you can donate large amounts of items to keep the collection fresh. The pix from Jay S, show how you can donate money to keep the collection going strong. It's just so quaint and cute. I didn't dare press the DIY Customer Service button because I didn't want to disturb someone. This little library is free of course and has the motto of "take a book, return a book". There are VHS, audio cassettes, a USB hook up for e-books (I'm not sure how that works), nonfiction and fiction, magazines, and more. I love that the people who put it together covered the library with plastic strips/sheets to keep the rain out being that it's Washington as such. I took a VHS and exchanged it for the book I had in my car...Superfudge by Judy Blume. I will definitely be back, and I went on the website http://littlefreelibrary.org/ourmap/ and surprisingly these free little libraries are all over the world. I just really have to say again what a wonderful idea this is to share with the community. I really really appreciate it, and I'm sure the community does too.
