Crossfield Heating & Air Conditioning - let's get some warmer weather!

Mon, 24 Mar 2025 15:27:11 +0000

We all know Crossfield Heating, but they also do air conditioning! If you don't already have A/C now is the time to get it installed. They have units that can be part of the heating system or if you need stand alone that can be done also! Air conditioning used to be thought of as a luxury, but now it has become as important as heating. Maybe we don't always have hot hot days, but even so, the A/C helps to keep your home cooler to possibly prevent mold/mildew growth. Do you remember as a kid those hot nights that were almost unbearable? Now that you're older the heat can cause problems with breathing, let alone comfort level. So now is a great time to contact Crossfield 585-872-4420, to service your furnace after running all winter, and maintaining your current A/C or installing new for your comfort this summer.

Coler Insulation - tired of high heat bills?

Tue, 25 Mar 2025 16:02:59 +0000

Is your furnace running practically non-stop? Are your heating bills through the roof? Well, literally, your heat just may be doing that! Going right up through the roof! Why? No insulation in the attic? Or maybe what's up there just is so inefficient it's not working as it should. Just think about spray foam insulation. Spray foam can get into crevices that rolled insulation, obviously - can't. You can have the attic floor spray foamed and especially under the roof. This will seal up any air leaks and you'll notice the difference practically instantly! Already the heat is staying in the house! Not escaping up and out. So what you need to do is call Coler Insulation 585-217-9069 and have a discussion with them about all the options and areas that will help keep your home warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer! Seriously, you will notice the difference and in your heating and cooling bills.

Brodner Equipment has lots of great mowers and more!

Tue, 18 Mar 2025 15:49:17 +0000

So excited spring is coming! Now is the time to head to Brodner's for a new mower! They have such a wide selection - something for everyone! No matter if you have a smaller yard or acres, there's one for you! The Exmark can cut hours off your mowing time, if your current mower takes you half the day, an Exmark takes a lot less! The cut is perfect even if you're 'moving'!

The most important thing about Brodner's, their service. You can pick up a cheap mower in the big box stores but what happens when something breaks? Certainly not getting the big box to repair it. At Brodner's the quality is so much better and if by any chance, something breaks (yes, you ran into a tree) they can fix it - no problem!

They also have a system that you can have them pick up your mower in the fall, service it, store it for the winter and return it to you in the spring. You certainly don't get that anywhere! Customer service at the best, they are knowledgeable, helpful and experienced.

The WHAM Home Repair Clinic March 2025 newsletter

Wed, 19 Feb 2025 20:39:51 +0000

Aren't we happy getting to start March! Closer to ending winter and onto starting all of those projects you want to get done! Can't wait!

On JimSalmon.com homepage, click the tab or just click - Contractors & Service Providers, check out all of the companies we recommend. Local, small businesses, quality. Many of whom Jim Salmon & John Welch have used for their own projects, etc.

Take a look at them and find out what they do, how their services can benefit you, your house, your yard, your life!

March is a good time to figure out your projects you want to get done and doing it yourself is always an experience! However, some projects you should leave to the professionals. Or you wait until you've totally messed it up, then give them a call!

Now is the time to contact these businesses to get estimates and onto their schedules.

You know everyone is Irish on St. Patrick's Day! A day for celebrating (responsibly) & having fun! After the winter we've had we need a break! It's March 17th which is a Monday, so that weekend ahead will be full of celebrations! Most likely no thought is given to the actual reason for the date. It's a religious and cultural holiday marking the original death in the fifth century of Saint Patrick, Ireland's patron saint. It certainly has gone far away from that especially in the U.S.!

Rochester, N.Y. has a St. Patrick's Day parade every year. This year it's Saturday, March 15, 2025, 12:30pm in downtown Rochester. (let's hope the weather is warmer!). Jim Salmon is going to be one of the judges again. It's a fun time! Everyone is excited to participate in or watch the parade! Plan on attending, lots of information on https://rochesterparade.com/

Ok, moving on from this person who obviously took matters into their own hands!

Let's get to thinking about your house and how it'll look once winter is truly over! Dirty, leaves from last year on your deck, stains, just a mess! Guess what? You can contact Western New York Exterior Cleaning to spruce up your house and deck! Actually they do a lot more too so give them a call to get this done soon. Start fresh and ready to have outdoor fun! 585-775-8900 By the way, and this is exciting! They do INTERIOR CLEANING!!!! Wow! Spring leaning done right! Let's go!

So this company can prevent you from having damage to your house! All County Gutter! You have seen your gutters overflow during the rain, ok so you see it and somewhat note it in your head, then forget. Now, those clogged gutters are getting some snow melting, then freezing and expanding to the point of cracking, therefore, leaking. That leaking can run down the wall etc. causing all kinds of issues, the ceiling, along the wall, the flooring, into the basement - creating a mess. Plan right now on getting those gutters replaced by having All County Gutter install 5" or 6" gutters and proper downspouts to be able to handle water draining the way it should.

All County Gutter also does repairs and cleaning so no matter the problem with your gutters they've got it covered!

Pittsford Rotary Food Drive March 1, 2025 Saturday

Wed, 26 Feb 2025 15:06:19 +0000

Rotary Club’s Next Drive-thru Food Drive is March 1

The Rotary Club of Pittsford’s next drive-thru food drive is scheduled Saturday (March 1) from 9 am to noon at the Pittsford Sutherland High School bus loop. In addition to the Pittsford Food Cupboard, donations also will support the Dimitri House Food Pantry and the Nazareth University Oak Tree Food Pantry. Rotarians and Interact Club members will be collecting at the drive rain or shine.

The Pittsford Food Cupboard plays a crucial role in addressing food insecurity within our community. Donations help ensure that local families have access to essential food items and will promote well-being and stability. See the cupboard’s list of current needs.

The Dimitri House provides food and affordable housing for its neighbors in need to support their journey toward self-sufficiency.

The Oak Tree Pantry serves those with food insecurity in the Nazareth community. The pantry has an ongoing need for granola bars, pasta, peanut butter, soap and other hygiene products.

The drive also will collect donations of gently used, current magazines for distribution to area human service organizations.

Additional information is available at pittsfordrotaryclub.org.
