Malachi says, "Yehaw!" (goofy redneck;)
Aim To Please won a Super Service Award for both plumbing and electric. Our clients have made ratings with Angie's List and google. The majority have such good things to say that Angie presented us with the award a couple of days ago. Thank you to our clients. By the way, we present an award to our employees that are mentioned in any online rating. It builds morale like nothing else could. Again, THANK YOU for your input.

According to an article by Hallie Potocki in "First" magazine's October 31, 2011
issue, copper can cause lots of problems for us. Copper steeps into the
water as it sets, waiting for us to shower or drink it. This copper
can overwork our livers and cause lethargy, mood swings, and fatigue
(redundancy for emphasis;). Zinc supplements may help balance the
copper in our bodies. Red meat, poultry, and cashews (bless you) all
contain zinc. Vitamin C aids in copper excretion. Copper water lines
in the home are a suspected culprit. Consider installing a reverse
osmosis system for drinking and cooking water, and perhaps letting the
water run for a minute (waste water?) before showering.
Do we want to even think of the lead solder holding those pipes
together? Didn't think so.

We want to welcome James to the Aim To Please family. We want you to welcome him too. How 'bout an extra 10% discount just for asking for James to come to your home. Even if he's unavailable you'll get the extra 10% discount, no matter which tech comes out. This offer is good only during the month of December, 2011. Boy can I pick 'em, handsome as can be and smart too!
BTW: He doesn't know about this blog. Let's play........compliment him on his being handsome and smart, then see if he goes as red as I expect. He is the most humble man I know, and father to his children in the most loving way. He has the most well behaved children.
Well, enough, just remember to ask for James to get the extra 10% discount in December.

Mr. Wade S. is going to the theatre with his 12 year-old daughter. She will be seeing dancing nutcrackers and pointe-ing ballerinas (couldn't resist ;). Dad....will be her hero for making such a memory. Take this away when you leave the site......we never know when we're making memories for someone else.

Hey, it's about time you won a prize! All you have to do is enter by sending a message to alan@aimtoplease.biz. Just enter once, but have friends and relatives who live in B'town enter too. We will award two tickets to "Swan Lake", or is it "The Nutcracker"? Anyway, you'll have fun on row 14, seats 102 and 103 at the Musical Arts Center on Jordan Avenue. These are really good seats, right up front. We will probably keep the email addresses for future use, of course, to send offers and announcements.

Wow! What a crazy summer. We remodeled six bathrooms and one kitchen from June 1 to August 2. Some of you were put on the back burner for a couple of days before our service crew could catch up. Thank you for your patience. Bloomington has such a cool, diverse culture. Our plumbers and electricians get to meet you on your own turf. What wonderful stories we get to hear at the end of the day. We have a kitchen remodel scheduled for January. You may think of remodeling during our slow time as well (Jan. through March).

We have High Street, That Road, and Child's School.
Why not Bye Street, This Road, and Adult's School?
One can cross B'town on Tapp Road, Country Club, Winslow Road, Rogers Road, and Smith Road without making a turn off any one of these! Maple Grove Road and Leonard Springs Road both have two locations for crying out loud. I propose we rename some streets to clarify the maps a bit. Those that have two or more names get reduced to one and those that are in two locations get two names. What do you think?

We carry a few select faucets on board our trucks. The purpose is to have an available faucet for you in the event of an emergency or perhaps you like the faucet we happen to have aboard. You are welcome to provide a faucet of your choosing for us to install. We do not want to dictate your taste. Some assistance is available to help you choose a suitable faucet, just ask.

No surprise here. Gas prices have gone up. Our commitment to our clients has not changed though. If we need to go away for parts that should have been on our truck, there is no extra charge for the errand, no extra trip charge or labor charge either. That's why we drive those rolling warehouses!

OUR NEW HIRE !
We welcomeD Evan Goedde on Wednesday. He has some formal training on electricity (graduated, actually.) from a junior college. He should be up and running in a few months. Until then all the new hires will be personally trained by Malachi and Alan on the intricate, meticulous, methods of trouble shooting Plumbing and electric problems you may have.
