Review for Umbrella of the Capital District, Inc., Schenectady, NY, USA
I am a single woman who lives alone in a good sized house. Having an organization like Umbrella literally at my beck and call gives me a great sense of security and peace of mind. My kitchen sink drain stopped up on a Saturday evening. Absolutely nothing would go down. A call on the emergency number connected me with someone who gave me explicit instructions on how to deal with it as well as a back-up number to call for assistance if the "DIY" did not work. I have called them when I needed to replace torn window screens and had the job taken care of without my having to do anything. Most recently I asked for received a safety check of my home and had two new smoke detectors installed where I had not realized I should have had them. Over the years I have had many small tasks performed, things I could not do myself or did not have the tools to do. Installing a cat door into my cellar was one such task, weather proofing my deck was another. The list is literally endless. It is a great organization that provides both service and peace of mind.
