Vendor Recommendations
Angie's List
Angie's List is a word-of-mouth network for consumers. It's a growing collection of homeowners' real-life experiences with local service companies. The people who join Angie's List are like you — looking for a way to find trustworthy companies that perform high-quality work. Rather than digging through the phone book, they check Angie's List to find out what people in their area are saying about the companies they've hired. By the way, companies cannot PAY to be on the list....it's for and by homeowners (and policed by them as well!)
They track and rate thousands of businesses and showcase Best Pick™ Companies in our annual report, which is posted online and mailed to homes in many metro-Atlanta communities. Companies cannot buy a good rating; the only way contractors can obtain a good rating is to earn it by having many satisfied customers and good reviews.
Below is a resource list of vendors from the Midtown Prudential Office, directly followed by vendors from the Marietta Prudential Office, where I used to work. Feel free to call on any of these companies--someone has liked them enough to put them on the list, but use common sense in hiring as you would any contractor.
