HOME OPENINGS & CLOSINGS-

Please note:
HOME OPENINGS: We require a minimum of 14 working days to get your home opened prior to your arrival, please plan accordingly. HOME CLOSINGS: We require a minimum of 14 working days to get your home closed once it is ready to do so. If you are leaving during the colder months you will want to be sure that your heat is LEFT ON so that there is no danger of freezing before we are able to get there.
*Please note: We may be able to open/close your home within a day or two of receiving your request, but it may take as long as 14 working days depending on how many other jobs we have to schedule at any given time. Any requests that require our service with less than 14 working days will be considered an emergency and will be billed accordingly.
*If you have a boiler system you will want to have the glycol content checked by a heating contractor prior to shutting off your heating system. Rates for home openings/closings on Drummond have a base price of $180, plus any materials needed such as antifreeze or filters, PER home. Additional rates will apply for homes that have out buildings, irrigation systems, or homes that would require additional travel time (such as homes off island, as well as requests for additional work to be done that does not pertain to the task at hand.)

To our home opening customers-

Per our Terms & Conditions, we require 14 working days prior to your arrival to get homes worked in to our schedule to have them open and ready for you. We have been to several homes to open by the dates given and are not able to access the driveways/homes due to excessive snow.
Please understand it is the homeowners responsibility to make sure we can get to your homes, and if we cannot we need notification so that dates can be changed.
*There will be a charge for time spent traveling to homes that cannot be opened where no notice was given, and homeowners will need to change their arrival date so we can reset our schedule.

We appreciate your understanding!

Unfortunately we had a fatality with our business phone (440-7107) and have lost all of our contacts and some other information. More importantly, if you left a voicemail OR text from Friday to Saturday night (11/21-11/22) we DID NOT get it! Our main concern would be if someone was trying to let us know that their home was ready to be closed, or had an emergency that was not responded to.

To our seasonal cabin customers,

There seems to be some confusion on our terms regarding home closings, so we wanted to take this time to clear up any misunderstanding.
Once we are given a date from our customers that their home is ready to be closed, we require 2 weeks/14 working days to get the home worked in to our schedule from the time it is ready to do so. Sometimes we can get to them on the day they are ready, but it could take us all of the 14 days *although rare. (like when 30 homeowners tell us their house is ready to close on the same day.)
We currently have 269 homes that we close, on top of our normal plumbing jobs (New construction, service calls, and emergencies). In order to keep our schedule flowing smoothly we need to keep the home closings flexible and work them in around our plumbing.
We are doing our very best to get your homes taken care of in a timely manner, and we really apprecite your patience and understanding! ❤️

The crew has been hard at work to get things wrapped up before snow falls (hate to even say it ❄️ 😭). The two at the end are tired out from all of their customer greetings while at the office with me.(not pictured) 😉.

It’s been a warm but productive week for our crew!  Hopefully summer slows down a bit!
