Service Providers/ Neighbors Helping Neighbors

Do you know a good handyman, gardener, or painter? If so, you can help your neighbors take the uncertainty out of finding service providers. We are continually compiling a list of your recommendations in order to provide a more personal alternative to the Yellow Pages.

Give your suggestions for trades people who live and/or work in the Valley Glen area to any board member. Check with the person you are recommending to receive their approval first.

We will then provide a list of service providers. You can contact the community member who made the recommendation for more information. This way, neighbors can help neighbors! Check back for additions to our list of referrals. And please let us know about the service you received.
