It’s true what the others have said about Stipes. Jim Stipes has become very independent lately and would prefer for you to use his competitors because he can’t, or won’t, perform his services when you need him to. Possibly because he is interested in new Village construction more than old customer referrals and new customers? I found this out after I requested a quote from him. Jim actually told me to call Hills at one point because he is too busy and his wife in the office would only schedule me for two months out if I wanted to use them.

His prices also now reflect his new attitude ...$250 to dig a gutter drainage ditch under my sidewalk/rock bed into the yard and $2 a foot now for 5” guttering compared to $1.50 a short time back when he did my neighbors home.
