I AM DISMAYED & HORRIFIED BY THE SERVICE I RECEIVED…read more I am shocked at the poor quality of packing I received. This company packed my items into U-box containers to be shipped across country. They did not use the shipping blankets provided (left them in plastic bags, untouched!) so that many of my wooden pieces have horrible scratches now. They SHOVED items into place - despite me saying to use as many U-boxes as necessary, so no need - permanently damaging irreplaceable objects, like an antique chair given to me by my great-grandmother, or expensive photography lighting equipment that I specifically warned needed to be handled with care - now in pieces and damaged, left for me to replace. Like, shoving a fragile circus light with multiple small glass lightbulbs (???) so that it would both BEND and SHATTER MULTIPLE glass bulbs all over everything. They didn't use the plastic mattress covers I bought just for this, leaving my BRAND NEW $2500 mattress exposed to dirt smears and tears, they placed hooked items jammed against box frames, ripping multiple holes in it, they dismantled tables I did not ask to be dismantled, with no care, literally breaking the studs, so that one table is totally destroyed. I was in shock, and the movers who helped to UNLOAD were shocked, having to point out damage after damage to me as they properly handled items. When I called - furious, no doubt - I was first hung up on. When I called back, this time calmly explaining my horrible experience, I asked for the one table mentioned to be replaced - $236 total - as a small gesture for the amount of significant damage that can not be fixed... only to be told they take zero responsibility. It wasn't about the $236 - which is a small dent in the damage. It was about having them acknowledge this was a total F up and shouldn't happen again. This was literally a master class in what NOT to do when moving. Frankly, I remain shocked that any moving company would not (A) APOLOGIZE, (B) offer some small compensation for the emotional and physical damage, (C) do a little research to find out how this could have happened so that NO ONE ELSE EVER HAS TO EXPERIENCE THIS POOR SERVICE. I lived in HR for 16 years, and it's a small town where everyone knows everyone. I hope this warning gets taken seriously. If you opt to use these guys, you better supervise every single thing they do carefully, because if you are not there to watch, your things get ruined and treated like trash. I would seriously say to use someone else. If you scroll through reviews, don't get confused by the good ones. It's the 1-stars you want to pay close attention to.

Typically I drive from Mosier to Home Depot but not anymore! Tum-A-Lum has everything I need and I don't have to walk across a massive store to pick up 2 or 3 items. Seeking an Allen wrench, wallboard joint compound and a fine grain sandpaper wedge to repair old nail holes in my wall, a worker noticed me searching the aisles and immediately offered help. Within minutes I had what I came in for and then spent another 10 minutes walking around to check out the inventory. Need a new kitchen faucet? Paint supplies? Hardware for doors, picture hanging, dressers? Cabinets and tiles to remodel a bathroom or kitchen? Garden and yard tools and BBQs? Lighting, plumbing and electrical supplies? Even plants, vegetables, soil, seeds and ceramic pots of your garden in their small garden area out front.. They have have a little of everything and a lot of some things! And of course lumber. I've passed by so many times while visiting Hood River, but always assumed it was a lumber supply store for construction, not open to retail. And never realized they were also a hardware store. Located right off exit 65 on I-84 it's super convenient and they have a large parking lot. Yum-A-Lum is now my go-to place for all of my fix-it needs!

Just had McDowels and Son HVAC out to our business to help resolve an HVAC issue we were managing…read more They were amazing! Prompt, courteous, highly professional and great to work with. We were told by our (now previous) HVAC company the parts weren't available for our older unit, and we needed to purchase a new system.. turns out parts were available, ordered same day, and resolved within a week of initial contact. So pleased with the outstanding service we received. We plan to continue w McDowels for our future heating and cooling needs. We appreciate you!

We have only kudos for the service we got from McDowell & Son. We moved to the area in March, and…read moreknew the house we purchased had a heating & AC system that were original to the house and well past their typical rated lifespans, and likely to die on either the hottest or coldest day of the year. Getting replacements was always on our list of "to do's," and so we called a highly rated HVAC company to get a quote. The guy came out, looked around, and then NEVER provided a quote despite repeated calls and requests. OK ... on to McDowell & Son. M&S came out promptly and provided us with several options and price points. Terry didn't try to sell us the most expensive system, but explained how the various units would work (all 3 would be fine for our house); described some ways to help us keep the house cool (or warm) given that we would only have a one-zone system, and overall provided a professional experience even at the RFQ stage. We scheduled time for an installation. And guess what? A little over a week before installation date, the area is hit with a big heat wave, temps above 100, and yes - the AC died. And it got hot. And hotter. We called to see if we could get bumped up on the schedule, but the equipment wasn't all in place and they had other jobs scheduled, but they were kind enough to bring out a single room AC loaner for us, which at least gave us one room to escape to at night. When installation day(s) arrived, the crew was prompt. We got calls the day before each installation day advising us when the crew would arrive. The team that did the installation was courteous and professional; they kept the work area neat; all the old stuff was removed and debris taken away. There were a few hiccups here and there (a piece of equipment arrived damaged; our crawl space was a little odd) but they managed around those things. The difference the new, modern AC has made is incredible. It does a great job cooling the entire house (before the upstairs was always problematic); it's quieter; it has so many scheduling options for flexibility. Again, though, the equipment isn't what made the experience memorable - it was the great service from McDowell and Son. I'm confident that if there is a time for any warranty service, we'll get the same great treatment.

As we remodeled, I knew I wanted something fresher and contacted Gorge Blinds, a Hunter Douglas seller/installer. Jean was very helpful right from the start, making it easy to learn about different styles, pros & cons of different choices, and so on. I admit that I felt some "sticker shock" when I got the quote ... and had to do some thinking about the value proposition. While thinking, I talked to some of Gorge Blinds' previous clients. They were highly praised in terms of the quality of the product (with one client contrasting it with a competing product from Home Depot that her daughter had purchased, and Hunter-Douglas coming in far superior in terms of quality and engineering), but also in terms of the service from Gorge Blinds. We went ahead with the purchase, and the team from Gorge Blinds showed up exactly when expected to do measurements and finalize color choices, and then did a clean and professional installation on the product. It's been about 6 weeks now, and I love the blinds - they've made a big difference in the appearance of the room, and in providing great room darkening (important for that room in the summer with our bright early mornings). I'm sure we'll be back with Gorge Blinds on our next purchase.
