Who To Call for Services Citrus County FL

Homeownership is the American Dream but owning a home requires a

lot of regular maintenance tasks to keep the investment in good shape.

I am including a list of service companies and maintenance people

who can help you, if you are not a DIY person.

Hope you find this helpful info and PLEASE let know if you have a

service company and/or vendor to recommend. I have not evaluated

We have had several homes in our 53 year marriage and we

have painted both inside and outside several homes. We just moved back

to Terra Vista and we utilized Mr. Max Painting 352-270-7574 for painting

the full inside in April and just had his crew paint our full exterior this past

week. BEST PAINTERS EVER. Attention to details were outstanding.

Extremely pleasant to work with. Pricing was very competitive to others. No

short cuts. Very very professionals and I’d highly recommend to my

neighbors.

ROOF CLEANERS:

Roof looking black? That is black algae. Black driveways need to be

cleaned more often, but once a roof is cleaned, and if treated with a

retardant, you can go about three years before having to have it

cleaned again. And love our screened lanais but not when they turn

green! Make sure they cover your bushes when they spray!
