I purchased these dental treats for my cats: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000RI85X4 They are supposed to be really good, but I can't get my cats to eat them, they are too big for them. If you have large cats this might be really good for you. Let me know if you want them! Best Coty.-

[Highland Park] Names of trusted Plumbers
by PPF GR INC 16 Apr '11

16 Apr '11

Highland Park Neighbors gathered these trusted Plumbers: Ron Eikey - very nice, professional, fast and knowledgeable - I believe his number is : 412-881-3456 Leo pasquarelli or something like that on Halket street is awesome. He has helped us for 20+ years. One man shop though so may not come there immediately, but you never know, he may have a recommendation Park Plumbing - Rick - 412-913-8011 We have used Tom Stock Plumbing for years. Very responsive, does good work. 412-856-1077 -jean We like and have been using Richard Dodero (412-243-1796 or 412-906-3772) for several years now. He's fixed several botched jobs done by other plumbers If you do end up using Richard, tell him Tom Lane recommended him. Jimmy Cohen. 412-421-2208 Chris Clair 412-576-9187 I like Roto-Rooter. They get someone out to you quickly and are very honest. You can save some money by looking for their coupon in the yellow pages. Marty M&D Plumbing 2453 Pleuchel Road Sewickley, PA 15143-9154 (412) 741-2786 I don't know how available Marty is for emergency calls, but he is very knowledgeable about older homes and will not overcharge you or do unnecessary work. We had an unsatisfying experience with Pawlak Plumbing before finding Marty. Have you ever tried Nick Pollucci or first call plumbing? Vast experience with both I can share yes a guy named Mark Schatzman 412-302-9400 he is quick to respond , is a great diagnostition and cleans up leaving no mess!!! Susie Binstock Rosenberg I was treated well, promptly, and professionally by STeve Poremski. Don't have his number here, should be easy to find. Although he does a lot of big jobs, Mark Seigle of "Seigle Plumbing, Heating, Cooling" has been great for both plumbing, refitting a new bathroom, and putting in a new furnace. Easy-going, very knowledgeable, and practical. We don't even call anyone else. His cell number is 412-977-2851. We use Standard Plumbing on S. Milvale. They are usually very quick and are familiar with plumbing in older homes. You can tell secretary we referred yo Leo Pasqarelli has done all of the work in my house and done a great job! Phone: (412) 621-9402 we've had great luck with nick poillucci - he fixes problems and guarantees his work. plus, his guys are nice and reliable. he's sometimes difficult to get a hold of, but i've found that if you leave a message, he will call you back - especially if you say it's an emergency. 621-2502 I have had good results with Terry's Plumbing. http://www.superterry.com/about.php I have had a very, very bad experience with Gillece. My very, very easy installation took only 20 minutes but cost me 500$. I needed it done quickly, and I paid for it, big time. Good luck! We use Joe 412-216-4724 Very good company I have the best plumber. I just recommended him on the list serve last week. His name is Bill Dugas, and his phone number is 412.726.1217. Feel free to use my name, and good luck. I have used and I highly suggest. First Call Plumbing (They were on time, clean and neat, and priced right. They did exactly what they said they would) I was thrilled. Roger H Kennelly, Jr - President Business Address - 190 Seavor Road Irwin, Pa. 15642 Website - FirstCall-Plumbing.com Email - Roger(a)FirstCall-Plumbing.com Business Phone - 412.829.4594 Mobile Phone - 423.225.5872 Fax - 866.874.6472 Tom Stock: 412-855-9586 I have been using him for 10 years. Paul Tedesco is good and fair. Look up Tedesco Plumbing I don't have his number. We've been happy with Pawlak plumbing: http://www.pawlakplumbing.com/. Free Estimates! Call Tim Pawlak at (412) 341-2815. They're not particular inexpensive, but they've been responsive and reasonable, and they've done good work. They have a high rating on Angie's List, which is where we first found them. just used kangaroo plumbing, this week. He called before he came, presented himself well and was reasonably priced (for a plumber). If you are still looking for a plumber, or find you need one in the future her is the contact for a plumber I have been using ahd recommending for the past 7 years with great success: Stephen R. Poremski Plumbing 561-5339 3480 Myrna Dr Pittsburgh, PA 15241 40.3169 -80.069

[Highland Park] Brick Pointer Needed, Again
by Shawn McGill 16 Apr '11

16 Apr '11

Still trying to find a punctual, respectable, fair and honest brick pointer. Someone started the job with half the pay, weeks later the job was still unfinished. Needless to say I'm disgusted, every person I have contacted thus far does not show up on time and has just about every excuse known to mankind. If you would so kindly repost recommendations for brick pointers I would be very, very grateful. Thank you, Shawn McGill
