Well for me. I looked at your site as if  I am a customer in need of  repair..  I
think the site  is laid out well.... I liked the discounts.   I did not try the toll free number but very good.    The blog was very helpful  and after reading it  I may be able to fix the problem myself...  Having proper information  when we call for repair saves you and me time and money..  Most of us will be all freaked out when something breaks and your site  has a calming to help me stop and  follow steps to get the problem fixed.
You  got  my  vote .  Thumbs up.
A flashing banner would not calm me into  taking action to hire you.

Hey, this site really looks good! :-)
On the "large" Flash! banner, it might not be a good idea yet. Roland had a post that there are changes to the basic Flash! structure that will allow searching by engins for text and stuff, but the bigger problem is just taste and elegance. Big Flash! "anything" tends to be used poorly.

On the "Locations" down at the bottom of your home page, why not have them each as links going to an actual address and phone number?

I went to "Garbage Disposals," since I have one, and there was mostly an empty page. Why not have the basic tips for deodorizing, cleaning, and flushing the water line? The content would make the page consistent with other pages. You know, the grind up a lemon thing, use some vinegar or ice and rock salt, and so forth.

All in all, it`s a very nicely laid out page, easy to understand, easy to read, and includes all the pertinent information. I think you`ll be able to tweak your content over time, but that`s easier after the overall design layout`s been completed.

Nice site.  I think I recall looking at an older version of this in the past...


1. B2B needs to be written out in full form somewhere on that page.  Instead of saying B2B and then B-to-B, say business to business.
2. All the text is a bit too small to read easily.
3.  This is designed with a template?  All your pages `say` what they are at the top of the content under the menu bar.. looks a bit silly.
4.  The green bubble behind the MY in the logo and the other greens on the page compete with eachother.
5.  There is no `call to action` on your homepage.  You need an active link or something that begs a visitor to begin searching through your site. You need something to propel them through the site.

Let me know if I can help,
