SATURDAY, MARCH 30, 2024
Note: I really want to encourage people to ask on the BPE for recommendations for a builder, pool repair, yard work, etc. I have never allowed bashing of anyone’s services on the BPE but by asking for recommendations you may also receive a negative note directly from someone explaining a nightmare they experienced.
