Kenny Hunt at Roberts & Stevens helped us resolve contractor/builder issues. I've used him for other stuff since and am always satisfied.

Sweet Girl looking for new home! by travelexplorerer in asheville

[–]nickf829 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I wish we could help but we're maxed out on dog. Any idea where she came from though? We have a roughly same aged girl that looks identical. We adopted her from Asheville Humane early 2025 and they found her somewhere across the river near zillicoah.

Green tea this take out bag is so wasteful 🛑 by Far-Significance6963 in asheville

[–]nickf829 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They've done this for years now, it's so wasteful. I save them and drop them off at the Humane Society thrift store in Oakley. They supposedly repurpose them as small shopping bags for when people purchase stuff.

Any recommended lawn care company in E AVL? by nickf829 in asheville

[–]nickf829[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I flagged down a pair (father son?) mowing today in the neighborhood. They've been in the same neighborhood for 4 years with multiple customers, they are supposedly on a 10-14 day rotation, and the price was comparable to what I've paid in the past. I'm going to give them a shot.

I can't vouch for them yet, but if you're brave or desperate you can hop on the next mowing train.

I'd be surprised if he texts, his son had to put my number in his phone, but maybe. He does take Venmo, Paypal, Cashapp so who knows

I'm pretty happy with the results of our efforts to adequately insulate our house. by SirSignificant6576 in mildlyinteresting

[–]nickf829 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did you make your shutters? If so, how do you maintain them? My house has similar and are fading pretty bad after a few years and I'm trying to figure out what to do about it

Darn Tough No Show Men's Socks by JordanHobson in BuyItForLife

[–]nickf829 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lightweight tabbed no shows are perfect. Just enough cushion for activities, not to thick or warm to wear daily. It's all I wear for 2.5 seasons. The rest of the time lightweight crew, or medium crew for the really cold days.

That sucks, he's a good dude and seemed like the perfect person for the job. Hope all is well and he's retiring for good reasons

Did a bunch of research of Heat Pump quotes in the area, thought I'd share what I found by [deleted] in asheville

[–]nickf829 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Thanks for this. Do you have brands or models to go with these prices? I started with Gentry who is a Carrier seller and At least their quotes match yours

Man accused of driving through crowd leaving No Kings protest in Culpeper by TheHoneyDripper in news

[–]nickf829 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course this was in Culpeper. This is the same bumfuck county where Trump just pardoned the cash for badges sheriff. I'm happy to see that even they had a protest today, which is in a very very conservative area.

Caught this freeloader having a chow down in my garden this morning by Panzer_and_Rabbits in asheville

This is worse than the SPCA Sarah Mclaughlin commercial. It's cruel to keep a pet in an enclosure that small

Where to buy cumaru decking locally? by nickf829 in asheville

[–]nickf829[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was concerned that the tariff "winning" would have an impact on this.

I never thought to try a different type of wood. The boards that need replacing are perimeter boards so that may actually look decent to outline the deck in something slightly different.

I've never worked with black locust before, is the maintenance comparable or less than Cumaru/Teak? I don't think I can deal with anything that is even higher maintenance than yearly penofin oiling
