 o
Black top Guy/Electrician???

Posted by Giniene z5 NY (My Page) on

I know this is off the subject, but I am really desperate! As you all know, it is almost impossible to find contractors to do anything around here. This is the 3rd spring I am trying to get my driveway black-topped. I was given an estimate in April 2002, hired the guy and all I kept getting were promises, promises, etc. Finally found another guy who came and gave an estimate about 6 weeks ago, been calling him to find out when I can get this done, and after 4 unreturned phone calls, am ready to give up. Also, have called 3 electricians within the last week and a half, 2 phone calls unreturned and the 3rd guy said he would get back to us in a day or two, still nothing. I live on Mt. Beacon, don't know if this is why, maybe they don't want to travel too far, but these are all local guys with ads in the yellow pages, it's not like I found them out of the Pennysaver! Any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks so much.

Hi, I just had my driveway blacktopped. I don't know if they go all the way out to Dutchas, (I'm in Orange), but I had called around for estimates and these guys were, by far, the cheapest. Plus, a few weeks later I had a dandelion comming up through the driveway, so I called them and they came a few days later and fixed it. They are called E. Spraigue (not Spraigue Bros. which is another company). Give them a call. As far as an electrician...I need one too!
