I didn't call the 1-800 number…read more I called B&T because we were moving, and I needed my Dish service relocated to our place 15 minutes outside of Redding, and I adhere to the whole "use the local guys" ethos. I was also shopping for internet service--I'd experienced the dismal performance of Frontier DSL and had struck out on fixed-wireless radio internet because I can't get a line-of-sight signal without putting up a 200-ft tower--so I asked B&T about satellite. I was told: "It works, but it won't stream video as fast as you're used to with cable. As long as you're okay with that, it's fine." Bzzzzzztttt. Wrong. The problem with satellite internet is not with streaming video--once your buffer is built and it's streaming away, you don't notice any difference, any more than you notice it when you're watching satellite TV. The problem with satellite internet is this: You click, and then you wait......forever. Often until the mofo times out on you, often repeatedly. If you're using internet for work/research, like I do, you spend most of your time waiting forever to reach the server, and for the server to respond back. It's the latency. It's fucking useless. How fucking useless? We have satellite internet that we're paying for, and we don't use it. With two or three bars out here, our goddamned Verizon cell phones are 10x faster and 100x more reliable, and we use them as internet hotspots, every day, all day. We're paying almost $100 per month for Hughesnet.con (the satellite provider that Dish uses), and we've set all of our devices to forget that modem so that the devices don't default to it. And it's a two-year contract--because any sane person would drop Hughesnet.con after a month once they got a taste of it, unless you happen to live in Bumfuck Nowheretistan and there is absolutely no alternative. Before we gave up on the satellite internet completely, it stopped working altogether for a couple of weeks. I called B&T twice over those two weeks and left messages (because, you know, don't call the 1-800 number). No return call. On the third try the guy who picked up (Doug? I don't know) told me that I had to call Dish's 1-800 number to get help. The guys from Dish came out the third week and said that my internet dish had been improperly installed by B&T with only 2 of the 4 bolts set on one side--like a hinge--and was tilting forward. The 1-800 Dish guy fixed the dish and replaced the system with the one that hits their newest generation satellite--Jupiter 2--and said it would be faster but would still suck, because satellite internet sucks, because of the latency issue. Sorry. He's absolutely right. The Jupiter 2 download speed is hella faster, and so what? That's not the problem. The problem is waiting......waiting.......waiting......for the downloading to start. And often it never does start, so then you get to try again.......and again.......and again. Other people seem to be satisfied with B&T, so I'll concede that my experience may be an outlier, related only to the shit satellite internet service that B&T offers through Dish. But in my defense, I wouldn't be writing this negative review: 1. If B&T had been straight with me about how horrible the Hughesnet.con service is in the first place (like the Dish guys were) 2. If B&T hadn't dodged me when I left voicemails about my satellite internet going to shit just because they don't want to deal with it and (as it turns out) it's not really their problem 3. If B&T hadn't done a crap job of installing the dish so that we lost three weeks of the shit service that I paid for (the three weeks relating to #2) 4. If B&T had gone to bat for me with Dish and helped me get out of my contract because the service isn't performing as represented, instead of washing their hands Here's what might happen next: Doug will attach a comment asking me to get ahold of him. I'm probably going to ignore that, because I'm going to assume that his interest isn't that he suddenly wants to help me. If he wanted to help me, that would have happened already, and I wouldn't be writing this review.* Why two stars instead of one? It's in recognition that B&T has a lot of 5-star reviews and must be doing something right. As for me: Meh, I've experienced better.

He was very knowledgeable and patiently answered any questions I had. Immediately after, I was able to schedule an installation date within the next two days! He was very efficient in installing and spent the time to teach me how to use the system on all the interfaces available.

Some trim work, siding with Z-bar, and three short seconds of barge rafters with minimal osb (roof sheathing) in two small sections. Easy stuff if you know what you're doing. He came out and did absolutely terrible work. I told them they need to have people out here with more experience and they did slightly better. Still have chipped trim, cracked siding from screws, didn't do the barge rafters or roof sheathing because they would "lose their license" and still took them a week to finish which was originally quoted for a day. They ended up sending 3 other guys to finish the work and demanded more money than what was originally quoted. So don't hire this company. I would have done the work myself but ended up selling my tools so couldn't. Overall very disappointed in this company.

Aloha Awesome Business!…read more I had alot of trash on the side of my house for a while as it had been building up with each house remodeling project I was having done over the course of half of a year . Among the junk , I had alot of broken and unusable items like doors/ pressure treated wood planks /multiple bags of concrete pile up . Basically creating the biggest eyesore you could imagine on the side of my house. The constant sight of it all was overwhelming and quite stressful day to day. I started looking up places and asking for recommendations from friends once my house work got finished and nothing would be added to the pile. Rates were well out of my budget all around Redding and from my contacts I had , nothing panned out. I decided to widen my search and came across Aloha's Junk Removal in Palo Cedro and called them up for a quick quote ! Turns out they were open at 8pm ! Amazing ! Susie was super nice and personable on the phone soon there and then got a quote appointment for the next morning . Susie and Dan came out to see and gave me a reasonable quote and were able to start right away ! I love giving genuinely kind and hard working folks my business ! Fantastic job and another big thank you again ! Aloha's Junk Removal will stay in my contacts for future projects to come .
