Hi,

I need to clean our gutters but they are too high for our ladders.

Does anyone have the name of a service that will do this and a ball park price?

Thanks

Anyone have recommendations for good window cleaners?

Can anyone recommend a decently priced House Cleaning service? I am in BH, and am struggling to find a legal service for less the 150$. This is for a one bedroom apartment in an older building.

Thanks.

So I have a new AO Smith hot water boiler that’s only been in use for around 6 months. It’s located inside the mechanical room where the room temperature tends to be warmer than it is in living space.

The dilemma here is that the pilot light goes out every few days and when it does I’m force to reignite it everytime. My guess is that water drops from condensation is what’s causing the pilot to go out. I have this hunch because everytime I reignite my boiler i can hear the drops fall onto the flame.

This has started since day one…has anyone got a clue what I can do to fix this? I only assume this won’t happen in the summer, but then I could be wrong.

Now that much of my home renovation is completed I am seeking a cleaning person who is a really good organizer. I am not interested in a professional organizer. I used to have a cleaning person who was also a fabulous organizer but she moved out of state. Thanks in advance

I would like to have cleaning lady who are reliable, punctual and doing good job! please rec your favorite lady and brief description and hourly rate. Thank you!

Hi All,
Can anyone please recommend someone to shovel snow from in front of a house in Brooklyn Heights? There is no stoop, just a ground floor entrance. I know there was a similar forum post a week or so ago, but referrals were for different neighborhoods. Any help much appreciated!

I saw a post about NHS… Anyone aware of something similar being offered in or around Bay Ridge? Would be good to work with someone to learn sheet rocking, electrical, etc…

We don’t have any leaks or cracks in our (rubber) roof, but it’s almost 15 years old, and we wonder whether we should do something to make sure that it lasts through the winter. (We hope not to replace it quite yet, esp. since we’re not having problems, but we don’t want to be dummies, either.)
