My parents had a beautiful wood based chair that they no longer wanted/needed, so they asked if I…read morewanted to take it off their hands. It was barely used and was in excellent condition, but for some odd reason the cushion was sinking. I figured, if I got it reupholstered to the color of my choice and had the cushion replaced, it would be good as new. I took to my handy dandy Yelp app and did a search and Mill End popped up. I'm familiar with the shop, since a family member worked there years ago, but I had no clue they did this type of work. I gave them a call and was told to bring in a picture to evaluate the chair because they didn't want me to be without my chair for a long time. Well, I thought bringing in the chair itself would be easier, since I wasn't in a hurry for it. I was greeted by a very knowledgeable staff member who gushed about how beautiful the chair was. She did an evaluation of what would be needed to repair and reupholster it and then showed me the fabrics that were available in the color I selected. They have a large variety of fabrics on-sight in the store, but they do have options that can be ordered. The one I selected was on-sight. We agreed upon the estimated price, I filled out some paperwork and I was out the door. It was literally that quick and simple. Since they have a pretty extensive client list waiting for their projects before me, my estimated date for the chair to be completed was about 2 months or so. To my surprise, I was called about a month later informing me that my chair was ready. I arrived and was extremely pleased with my brand new chair. The workmanship was beautifully done and the cushion they replaced was perfectly placed. They did such a phenomenal job, my parents wanted their chair back. Lol! Not on my watch! Yes, Mill End is a bit pricey, but so worth it! They're truly professionals. I'm planning to get my dinning room chairs reupholstered in the near future, so I made sure to get an estimate while I was there. I'll absolutely be back in the near future.

Jeff…read morewas very quick to respond and worked around our schedules, and his team painted both places during the time frame that worked for us. Not only was the response time and overall job impressive, but the price worked in our budget. Also, in our old home, there were a few cosmetic issues that they did an amazing job patching up, and after a slight miscommunication about some of the work we wanted done there, Jeff and one of the painters went back the very next day to take care of it AND did not charge us anything additional. I highly recommend Pro Painting & Contracting. If we need to paint anything again, we won't even consider contacting anyone else!

I've honestly lost track of how many times I've used Flatpack Assembly - I think I'm up to FOUR…read more Carlos and his team always go the extra mile with assembly and installations. I was especially impressed on the most recent project that included mounting of a digital photo frame. Carlos simply "wasn't having it" to mount the frame with the electrical cord showing! He expertly drilled holes and snaked the cord through the inside of the wall and back out just above the electrical outlet for an amazingly clean look. He had the finishing caps to cover the entry and exit holes too. Carlos and the crew also took a very personal interest in mounting my career memorabilia (22 plaques and awards!) beautifully in my home office. And they are undaunted by "oddball" stuff like mounting clips for a tapestry in my media room to cover unsightly electrical panels. Their excellence starts with the manager Marc who gathers a LOT of information from you (pictures, model numbers, installation videos, etc.) so that the crew arrives fully prepared. Not only are their prices very competitive, but Flatpack offers a flat RATE quote so that the crew stays until the job is completed. I'm very pleased to have found this amazing company.

I revere St. John's College. It is among the oldest institutions of higher education in the nation,…read morededicated to the Great Books. I always wanted to attend. I interviewed for a job there once, and I imagine someday trying to read their required curriculum, specified down to the preferred translation. Passing through Annapolis, I took a break from the drive. I stopped into the Mitchell Art Museum. Every college should have a museum. This is at the center of campus, more or less. They had a special exhibit. Three students or staff or students doubling as staff were seated in the gallery. They welcomed me. I looked around. I was done quickly. To put it into perspective, I spent more time in the bookstore browsing than I did here. That said, I wish to reiterate my enthusiasm for the college, my support for art museums, and my pleasure to have visited. I am just setting expectations. This is a brief digression, not a destination to spend a day. I hope St. John's continues to do well. In our era, we need more reading, writing, critical thinking, independent thought, and communities of scholars.
