Five-star all the way! Couldn't be happier with the large screened-in porch they just completed, beginning with the demolition of the old deck. Great attitude, timely and responsive. Al and his crew were professional, courteous and meticulous. Love the workmanship, design, and old-school attention to detail. Began work promptly each morning and always kept us updated on progress. At all times, Al treated us with respect, answered our questions easily, and provided explanations that we could understand. He sincerely wants you to be not only satisfied, but happy – which we are. A&J also did roofing for us in the past – they're the only one we'll call for future remodeling. Thanks again - we're now enjoying summer days on our great new porch! John and Margaret
We are so pleased with the work completed. installation of storm door and the framing around the door. The owner and workers take pride in their work. Thank you so much!
My siding was done timely and professionally. AJ and crew has done a job that met my expectations. The finished project is beautiful. I will continue to use his company for future projects.
After calling several roofing companies and leaving them all voice-mail messages, Al at A & J was the only one that returned my call. I had a very positive experience dealing with Al at A & J. He put me as a priority to replace my roof when it was leaking into the house and to avoid running into any further inclement weather problems he started the process immediately after I agreed to the work contract. The work was done in 1 1/2 days and I was really thankful for his professionalism and knowledge dealing with roofs and considered his pricing fair. I appreciated the fact that he checked up on the crews and the work while it was being done and of additional issues that occurred. I will always highly recommend A & J and their services to anyone who asks for referrals. Nowadays it's hard to trust any contracting business anymore, but I can honestly say that I trust Al after my positive experience with him and his company and would definitely use him for other future contracting needs.
Since we have moved to NJ, eight years ago, he has been our number one guy for everything! He is fair with prices, does an amazing job and I love all of the people that come to work, they are like family to us and I am so grateful to have found this support and craftsmanship!
During a recent wind storm a large limb crashed through our roof. We called A and J Professional Services. Al came that same day and provided two estimates for addressing the problem. He was the most professional and reassuring contractor I have ever hired! He and his crew were competent, thorough, and caring. Needless to say the work was finished on time and on budget! I highly recommend A and J Professional Services!
Al is a true professional!! He manages a dedicated, talented staff!
We had all of our gutters replaced yesterday at our home in Piscataway, the team did an amazing job. They arrived on time as planned and were finished within 8 hours. They were professional, courteous and cleaned all the debris when the job was complete. They went above and beyond by relocating a few nests and baby birds from the old gutters to a nearby tree. Very pleased with the service and the product.
AJ was extremely responsive , punctual and got the job done efficiently and effectively . His guys were quick as well and very professional . I would recommend their service to anyone looking for great quality of work and professionalism.

Alvarro and his team were very professional. He showed up when he said he would come, he finished the job when he said it would be done. His price was reasonable, the quality of the workmanship was superior. I would recommend him to anyone. He replaced the roof on my home and my garage. He kept me informed every step of the way by sending me pictures and showing me what needed to be replaced. He even took care of something that was not part of the roof to give the house a nice clean look around the chimney. I will definitely use him again for other jobs. I highly recommend them.
The communication from beginning to end was excellent. I got exactly what I was promised and the whole team was friendly and highly efficient. I am very happy about the while experience and recommend A&J highly!
My experience with AJ professional was exceptional I dealt with extremely friendly and knowledgeable staff. They Arrived at my home punctually at 7: am.

Thank you very much to AL & the entire Crew, The Sharick Family
This roofing company was very professional and punctual. The owner and crew were very friendly. The owner was knowledgable and on job site throughout installation. They did an awesome job and i would defitnely recommend them to anyone.
I am very pleased A&J! They were on time , efficient and very professional. Good quality work in 1 day my whole roof is done and the place is clean. Very impressed . Good value!!
New roof, gutters, attic insulation and flooring, and replaced bathroom ceiling. Everything was done good and to our satisfaction. Responsive to my concerns and suggestions. Will definitely hire for my future home renovations. Would recommend without hesitation.
Wonderful to work with great communication skills. Superior craft person ship. More than I ever hoped for so glad we went with them I can only say thank you to them
I recently had the gutters and leaders replaced in my house by A&J Professional Services. Al was very good at providing me with options not only in terms of gutter sizes but also as it pertains to gutter guards to eliminate or greatly minimize the future frequency of dealing with gutter clogs. So that I wouldn't be blindsided, Al also informed me of possible potential issues with the fascia board which could manifest itself with the removal of the old gutters. I feel that Al did a good job and in a timely manner as promised and his price was also competitive with other contractors that I felt weren't as experienced as Al. I definitely recommend A&J Professional Services for all your home improvement needs. Manny d Green Brook, NJ
We recently had moved to South Plainfield and had our roof replaced. I cant express the punctuality of these men the quality of service. They explained every detail of the job and were friendly and courteous as well. There were no hidden surprises and I would recommend them to anyone that needed a roof replaced. I would give them a 10PLUS for service!!
Was in need of roof repalcement after 20 year old roof was showing its age with roof leaks. AJ responded next day had a quote same day after meeting with him. Had the job completed following week. AJ and his crew were professionals they did a great job roof looks great and no leaks to speak of. Any roofing issues call AJ.
We got the roofing construction 2 months ago due to the poor roofing condition from them. We were impressed by their professional work skills. We asked them to finish small details and they finished it to the end. We hope this company to thrive and be more helpful in ths area in Edison and Highland Park for many further house roofing. God bless!
A&J Roofing Professional Services Great Roof and Job skylight job Had my roof & skylights replaced on October 4, 2019. I would highly recommend A&J Roofing for all your roofing needs. Very professional, Al took the time to sit with me and explain what was needed and how much it was going to cost. Work was done in a timely manner, friendly crew, and the cleanup afterwards was perfect. Brand new roof and skylights look amazing. Very reasonable price and quality work.
A&J Professional Services installed new roof and gutter for my house. They are professional and work quickly with high quality. The boss Alvaro Cardona is easy to communicate. I recommend this company.
Very pleased with the roofing job they did. The men were professional, polite , and friendly. Clean up was great, too. I would recommend any roofing job needed.
I highly recommend AJ Professional Services! We have hired Al to do several projects since initially hiring him to replace the roof on our home that was damaged by Hurricane Sandy. At that time, our roof was badly damaged and we had vacation plans in two days. Al and his crew of professionals removed the old roof, replaced some plywood where needed and put on a brand new roof in plenty of time for us to go away without a worry! The latest project, last week was to paint our master bedroom (which needed extensive prep work), master bath and guest bathroom. Al assigned Alex to do the job and it was done to perfection! The rooms in our 50 plus year old house look brand new! From roofing, siding, painting, construction and remodeling, and everything in between, AJ does it all and does it better than anyone else! AJ Professional Services is the only way to go if you want the job done well, done on time and done for a reasonable price! Sue H Middlesex NJ
Fast response for an estimate, started the job a few days later and done in one day. Highly reccomend for any roofing needs.
STAY AWAY!! They came to install my roof and I was told that I would have warranty paperwork mailed to me and it would take less than a month to receive. I have not received any paperwork, I've called them, texted them and I have yet to hear back from them. On top of that we agreed on specific work that was going to be done. Then I find out that all of the sudden it's extra cost if I want the gutters to go underground when clearly Alvaro had said he was going to do it when we first met. I am beyond disappointed with this company and I am going to open a case with BBB because I was lied to about the work and the warranty that I was promised and never got the documents of proof.
Punctual and great price. Did a great job, i love working them. I will deffinately do business with them again.
Great service, didnt charge me extra after his qoute. Beautiful job ,fast too. I highly recommend this business.
A&J Professional Services puts the P in Professional, from start to finish he and his crew went above and beyond to give us the make over our house was looking for. We cannot thank him and the crew for excellent service. I highly recommend them if you want it done with care and professionalism. Would give 10 stars if it were possible.
We could not be happier with our new roof and gutters installed by A&J! The owners, Al & Luis were on the job site the entire time supervising a large team and they answered all of our (many) questions throughout the day! These guys are very knowledgeable, kind and take great pride in their work! We had a number of other estimates, but A&J's price, coupled with the top grade GAF materials they use and the time Al spent explaining the estimate, really sold us on their company. The final project met all expectations and we could not be happier! We'll be sure to call A&J again for other home projects in the future!
I was horrified to note water trickling down 3rd-floor bathroom wall. Fortunately, Al came over the very next day, diagnosed the problem as likely the flashing at the nearby chimney, and with his crew installed new flashing, even cutting a groove to seat it. This fixed the problem so that all I have to do is tape, spackle, smooth, and repaint the water-damaged interior surfaces. Having been terrified my house was about to dissolve, I am grateful for the prompt attention, careful explanation, accurate diagnosis, and quality workmanship.
AL cardona was great. Fixed my roof and my gutters, great job with quality work and excellent service. I highly recommend this company!!!
As a new homeowner, I was really nervous about the major job we were about to get done. Even after we finalized A&J, I was still apprehensive about how the job was going to be completed. But once the job was complete, that feeling changed. Am I glad I had made the right decision by choosing A&J. Al/Louis and his hard working team(jerry, Nelson, Mario, Guam, Orlando, Kristin) are thorough professionals. Both in terms of time and quality of workmanship(including good quality materials used). We are very happy with our new roof, we gave their referral to another friend whose roof replacement is also complete. We will continue to give business to A&J for cleaning our gutters and hence will keep Al on our speed dial for any work related to the exterior of our house 😊👍 good luck to you team A&J!!!
Very impressed from start to finish with the well-planned and meticulous work that Al and his crew did for us. Not only did they do a fantastic and sturdy exterior roof for us, including making the dormers on our old home look alive again, he also fixed our caved in ceiling then painted the room exactly as we had imagined it to be. We might have more projects in future and they will be the first ones we call. Highly recommend these guys! Thanks. RH and RV
My old roof was still in good condition but I wanted to replace it before it started leaking , I called A&J because they were recommended by a friend of mine who had their roof done by them.. They said they have a very reasonable price and we're very happy with the outcome of their roof and the service provided by them. They came to give me an estimate, they were professional and polite. So I agreed to hire them. Well, my friend was not lying.. A& J has one of the most reasonable price quotes out there with high quality materials They were very prompt and professional during and and after the job was done. My roof looks great and my yard looks clean as if they were never there. They clean up really good. Kudos to them. I would recommend them to anybody anytime!
very pleased with the roofing job A&J did. The men were professional, polite, friendly, clean up was great (even helped me bring in my groceries) I would recommend them to everyone. Thanks guys
I called A&J Professional Services to get an estimate for new windows. Al came out the next day to go over options and pricing. He ordered the windows and they came in a few days earlier than he said. His crew was here a few days later. They did a great job taking out the old (100 years old) windows and installing the new ones. They took down our wooden shutters, gave me a few days to paint them and reinstalled them. Al even had the guys take down an old tv antenna. Al takes the time to explain things and he makes sure things are done right. The guys in his crew are hard workers and did a great job. We have now hired A&J to do a big renovation inside our house.
Al and his crew were extremely professional. He kept me informed every step of the way, which I appreciated. I highly recommend his services and would use him again in the future.
We can't be happier with the job Alvaro and his guys did at home full new GAF roof, seamless gutters, Andersen windows & siding, very professional installers immaculate installation he went over every single detail, he helps with whatever you need, always trying to improve your home, definitely looking forward to work with A&J professional services again 1000% recomended. Many thanks Alvaro.
I'm satisfied with the workmanship of A&J
We are very happy with work we had done with A&J Pros today! As we was very impressed with the precision and care the team took to replace a roof across the street last week, I walked over to talk to the owner, Al. He came right over to access our needs. Taking his time to be specific about how they would approach the project Al provided a written estimate on the spot. He personally took every phone call, answered questions clearly and the team arrived on time. The work they did was a bit complicated - fixing old pitted aluminum wraps and fascias on the porch, garage and roof gable . We are thrilled with the enhanced "curb appeal"! Thanks again, Alvaro and team.
Highly recommend A+J! Having worked with A+J on two separate projects and they didn't disappoint, I say give them a ring! Great level of professionalism, care, punctuality and quality work. I was explained project scopes from start to finish and was provided with updates and photos during my roof repair. Minimum interruption to the premises and they cleaned up nicely!!
We use Davi and Al to do all of our home renovations.
A&J were one of several quotes we obtained to install a new roof after 25 years with the existing and some issues that occurred over the past year. After reviewing all options and reaching back out, Al (from A&J) was always available, very responsive, and came across with knowledge and integrity. After finalizing details and signing the contract, they came a week later, maintained great professionalism, and did a wonderful job! This included installing new skylights, all components of the GAF Timberline roof system, installed new seamless gutters using our existing gutter-guards per request, and replacing the roof on our shed. Everything was done over 3 days and they cleaned all materials away completely. We are extremely pleased with the results and wouldn't hesitate to recommend A&J to anyone.
I contacted Al for an estimate to replace my roof. He gave me a quote the same day the estimate was performed. When the guys were replacing my roof, he was right up there with him which I respect. As the job progressed, Al texted me many pictures of the job. They cleaned up after themselves and did high quality work. I waited until the first big rain after the replacement to leave this review because I wanted to be sure that everything was ok, and it is. I would definitely recommend Al to friends and family.
Had siding and new gutters installed. They did a great job. Came at 730am out at 1pm. Good people!
People need to get lives. I was reading the reviews and I read the one star review. The person gave one star for because they did not get a call back come on. Really? How about rating on Workmanship of the service provided. Not I'm mad 😠 because no one called me back so I'm gonna give a 1 star. Let's grow up people. This is someone's livelihood.
Complete roof and CDX boards replacement We highly recommend A&J professional services. Alvaro C. is awesome. His courtesy and knowledge are above expectation. Alvaro and his crew handled every detail with perfection for us. His roofing installation crew were very meticulous, the attention to detail, workmanship and articulate clean up left an impressive job well done. We have received many compliments on the new roof from neighbors and friends. Alvaro and A&J Professional Services, Inc. Thank you!!
They were very professional throughout the entire project. They explained the entire process and were very reliable as they showed up on time and completed the job in a timely mannor. They did a great job on my roof installation and we think it looks great. The team were tidy and cleaned everything up like they had never been there! I would recommend them to others who needs a new roof installed.
Excellent job and great price. I highly recommend.
A&J Professional did a great job replacing my roof. The job looks quite professional, and they cleaned up thoroughly afterwards. I found Al of A&J very easy to work with. He gave a clear and detailed description of the job in his proposal, and he provided great references including phone numbers. I would gladly recommend A&J services, and I would certainly use them again. Francis
They did an excellent job in replacing my old roof. They gave me a good quote compared to other 2 companies. They installed new plywood, sheet barrier and new shingles. Al the owner was there the entire time to supervise the work. His crew were very professional and polite. They clean and hauled all the debris out from my place.
A&j professional service did an amazing job on our home! They did a complete outside renovation with windows & siding, trim, doors, etc. . Not only were they reasonably priced, but they were an absolute pleasure to work with. They were very professional and willing to go the extra mile to please the customer. Their work was fastidious and they were extremely easy to communicate with. not once did I feel like I was bothering them when I called with questions . The owners and workers showed up everyday on time. I would highly recommend this company as these days it is very hard to find people that can fulfill all of your needs: Customer service, quality work professionalism, and great pricing!!
After a snow storm the gutters in the rear of my home were damaged, I called several gutter companies, and none of them got back to me, then I gave A&J a call, I left a voice mail around 11.30AM, not expecting a call back, I was surprised when my phone rang at 1:30PM that same day, we discussed the issue, and Al told me he would look at the issue around 3:30PM and give me an estimate, I was not home at that time. Around 4PM he gave me a call back, with an estimate, which i thought was very reasonable, I asked when he could do the work, to my surprise he said tomorrow morning, and just as he promised he was there the next morning with his crew, and installed the new gutters, I highly recommend them. They are timely, professional, and courteous, ,my neighbor hired them as well to do his gutters.
As a residential architect of 30 years specializing in remodeling, I can highly recommend Alviro Cardova, owner of A & J Professional Services, Inc. and every member of his staff to be trusted in providing you with expert advise, craftsmanship, using proper and high quality materials for your renovation. From start to finish, every member of his crew performed all their work to perfection. Even to the point when Mr. Cardova noticed a construction detail that was not correct to my specification, and without my comment instructed his crew to make the correction that most contractors would have walked away from. Take my advice, just sit back and relax knowing that your house is in good hands when you hire, A & J Professional Servicers. And at the right price! Thank you Al, for a job well done! Sincerely, Paul Ciccarelli, AIA 290 Middlesex Avenue Metuchen, NJ
Thank you, A&J Professional Services, Inc. You did an amazing job with my roof and canals. You were very professional and got everything done very well. The prices were also very reasonable; I would highly recommend your services to others.
Al and the A&J team did a great job cleaning our gutters, replacing a gutter and adding gutter guards to our entire system. Friendly, up front, didn't charge to replace anything that didn't need it. Cost seemed fair. Advised us of other issues with our roof that was very helpful.
Our roof had a leak for 20 years that three separate roofing contractors had tried but failed to repair. Al of A & J Professional Services correctly diagnosed the problem, and he and his expert team completed a repair which has permanently solved the leak!! They also installed beautiful new gutters. I highly recommend Al and A & J Professional Services!
A&J were absolute professionals starting with the bidding process; they responded quickly. Work on my roof began two days after I accepted the quote and they were finished by noon on Day 2. The work itself was incredible, with high quality materials. Al sent me pictures of the crew's progress and kept me informed of any issues along the way. I would highly recommend A&J.
I hired A & J to replace a section of roof on an older home here in New Brunswick. A & J also rebuilt the soffit & fascia and replaced the older yankee gutters with new seamless gutters. Their workers also repaired and resurfaced the chimney. The quality of the workmanship and the final appearance was excellent.
Great job done in less time frame. Al is highly knowledgeable and his crew was punctual and organized. I highly recommend al and his crew
excellent and reliable service!!! im very happy with my new roof!
Al and his team at A&J were and are prompt and fair with their estimate to replace our roof. They showed up when they said they would and completed the job in a neat and efficient manner in less than a day. They only use the highest quality materials. They were easy to deal with. We feel comfortable recommending them for your contracting needs and would not hesitate to use them again.
Let me just tell you guys how amazing A&J service is. They came as soon as they can when we called them showing us the projects and material type they use and they use high quality materials. Then they came early roughly 7:30am and work till 5pm and on the first day they usually fully clean your roofing and the debris. These guys are so wonderful and honestly I felt bad for them as it is pretty cold these past 3 days they've been here. If you think about the cost of material and service fees. The cost of getting your roofing isn't that bad. These guys were so patient with my mom and dad who also requested to get our gutters done and my dad being the picky guy told them how he wanted it and they comply as best as they could. All in all I just want to say thank you guys so so much and would Highly HIGHLY recommend them to anyone I know of getting a roofing done.
We had Al and his workers replace our roof and are very happy with the job. From meeting Al and his presentation to watching how hard his team works we couldn't be more pleased. They cleaned up all the debris around the property and left a beautiful roof. We would definitely recommend A&J Professional. They are true professionals. Thanks guys.
I called A&J and spoke with Al. He came over and examined my roof the very next day. We discussed a price, he told me when they could start and it was just that simple. The most profressional and honest company i've dealt with in a long time. My roof was done in 2 days. I am so impressed and satisfied with the job that was done. Thanks Al andA&J!! I would certainly recommend this company to anyone.
Our roof and gutters needed replacing so I started calling a bunch of places for quotes. Al is the only one that immediately picked up the phone when I called. He came by the same day, at the time when he promised he would, checked out the house and gave me a quote on the spot. All other places took a lot more calls to get a hold of and get a quote. Once I had all the quotes in hand (all 7 of them...), I compared the cost and quality of product used and A&J is by far the best of all. Almost everyone install GAF shingles now but A&J are the only one using GAF deck armor instead of felt paper, and somehow still able to offer the best price. Al was also very honest with any potential additional cost so there is no nasty hidden surprise. Scheduling with them was super easy too. The team showed up on time. Everyone was super professional and all did a great job. They did a good job protecting the yard furnitures and landscape. The team worked from 7:30 am to ~5:00 pm and clean up the whole place everyday so we don't have to worry about any possible nails on the driveway. We are super happy with the new roof, all new 6 inches gutters, and all new insulation in the attic! We will for sure call them again for any future work on the house.
Highly recommend to anyone looking for quality work as well as reasonable prices. Al and his crew showed up on time ready to go. They all worked extremely hard. After the job was complete Al showed me everything they had done including a few things I hadn't even asked about. Thank You Al. I will definitely keep A&J on speed dial for any future roofing work I need. You and your crew definitely exceeded all expectations.
I was in the market to get a new roof and after reading all the great reviews I decided to call for a estimate and I'm very glad I found these guys! I was able to reach that night at 9 pm when I first called and we were able to promptly schedule an appt. I was given a lower estimate than another estimate and decided to proceed. They were able to accommodate a prompt start date and were timely with everything! They were professional, curteous, knowledgeable and did a great job on the new roof, chimney fix, facials and new gutters! It was a big job and the crew worked very hard for five days to get all the work done! We were very happy with the way everything came out and would highly recommend these guys to anyone looking for a fair price and great job on a new roof. They do windows and power washing (pretty much everything) and we will look to use them for future work needed! Thank you for a great experience!
Al and his crew of skilled workers did an amazing job for us. We needed a new roof and gutters. Al recommended some ways to prevent future water damage including two beautiful porticos over the front and back doors. The quality of the work was superb. Everyone was professional, polite, talented, and meticulously neat in cleaning up after all the work was completed. Unquestionably, anytime we need work done on our house, A&J Professional Services will be our first call. Thank you to the entire crew for a job very well done. To me the most amazing thing is that we were only going to be at home for one week before leaving town for awhile and Al and team got everything completed in just 5 days.
Replaced my roof at a fair price. Kept me updated throughout the process. I would hire them again.
Al and the team did a great job. New roof, siding and gutters. Very professional, very neat. Price was very competitive. He kept us updated throughout the job. I highly recommend him.
So if you're looking for a new roof, look no further! A&J hit the ball out of the park on every level. Immediate response and estimate. Best price I received. Impeccable work!!! Al the owner went out of his way for everything. He noticed my chimney mortar and bricks were in poor shape and crumbling. Also, he wasn't happy with the way the previous roofer flashed in the chimney. He fixed EVERYTHING!!! And I decided after the work started to ask if he could roof my shed. No problem for Al, and at an extremely reasonable rate! I am a retired Union electrician, and I have an eye and feel for quality work and labor. A&J is a no brainer!!!
I really had a wonderful experience with this company. They came highly recommended by a colleague. They are very professional, reasonable, and punctual. I look forward to giving recommendations, as well as, working with them again.
It was my pleasure to select A&J Professional Services, Inc. after having received roofing estimates from four other roofing companies. Al called when he said he'd call, he showed up when he said he'd show, and he finished his work exactly as he said he would...and both he and his workers did an excellent job with smiles on their faces! Once you meet Al, you will know that you have met a professional man you can trust to do what he said he'd do. A&J has now put on my new roof and it was done on-time, professionally, and without surprises. I highly recommend that you both meet Al and use his excellent roofing services.
Very professional company.. Replaced my entire roof in two days.. Extremely reasonable on the price. Would recommend them for any roofing job you have.
Can't say enough good things about A&J. They were professional, timely, polite, neat & affordable! They removed not only their debris but the debris from another ongoing construction job at my house. I would recommend them for sure & absolutely use them for future projects on my home!!!!!!! I never thought I would admire a new roof so much but the truth is I LUV my new roof!!!!!!
We had two jobs done with A&J and are pleased with the outcome which is satisfactory overall. The five star rating is forecast since this rating will be updated once we complete our second job. The first one was to replace a rotting balcony and Al and the team found that the walls around the balcony were rotted and they re-built them, found the siding needed and finished the rooms within beautifully - this job could easily have been a nightmare but the team made it so easy to work with them and get it done. Each person on the team is good to work with. Since the work involved included the waterproofing of a balcony, we waited to see how it performed before we reviewed. After the first few snowfalls, it seems to be holding up well. The second job was to replace a deck with composite materials with railings and to waterproof a second level deck with a new product. This was a larger project and we found that the management of time was lacking but the quality of the work is satisfactory to date. The lack of time management and appropriate planning resulted in mishaps that cannot be remedied without undoing a lot of work already completed. We have accepted this and have moved on. The job is still to be finished with technical performance of some materials used to be evaluated and we will update this review once those issues are ironed out. We have assigned a five star rating because the overall experience was positive.
A&J Professional Services did a great job of replacing our gutters. They were very professional with great work ethics. I would certainly recommend them to anyone needing Home Improvement services.
Al and his crew recently replaced a long gutter and some of the broken leaders at the back part of my house and I can say that they did such a good job. First of all, Al is prompt and when he says he will arrive at a certain time, he will be there. He and his crew also finished the job within the time frame he said they will finish it. The gutter has yet to be tested with a strong rain, but it was a bit breezy yesterday and I did not hear any noise, so it seems everything is good. I definitely will call A&J again when it's time to replace my other gutters. Overall, I'm very satisfied with the job done; very quick and clean work.
Al gave me an estimate and did work with his amazing crew at my daycare center to resolve a problem I had with existing gutters and poor drainage. They are professional, courteous and knowledgeable. The job went smoothly and was fixed beyond my expectations. I really felt Al and his crew care about what they are doing and have pride in their work and it shows. The grounds were left cleaner than when they started!!They definitely went the extra mile for me. I will be having them do more work at the school and am thrilled I found them. These are the guys you want working at your home and business, they are the best! .
They did an outstanding job installing a new roof on my house. They don't cut corners, very detailed , very professional , work clean and provide an overall great service. In addition, there's no hidden costs or fees , they are very upfront about everything and walk you through your project step-by-step. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a new roof , gutters or siding. I'm definitely using them again on my next project when I'm repointing the brick at my house.
They did an excellent Job replaced roof, Gutter and cart away old material. And did a great job on cleaning up. I will recommend them to other friends, family etc. As a company they are very approachable.
A&J Professional Services replaced three roofs on my home in Plainfield, repaired ceilings in three areas and painted in each of the three rooms. The jobs done were outstanding.The best products were used, the workers were punctual, courteous and trustworthy. Professionally they began and completed all tasks as promised. I can only give the highest praise and recommend highly the work of Al and his company. It was a pleasure having them work in my home and I would use them again and again.
Al is a super business person and very easy to deal with. He did our large roof which was a tear off. He was prompt clean and on time. He also offered a very fair price of the three I got. Thanks to Al and his crew of "Eagles"
A&J professionals are the only people i will ever ask to work on my house again-- they do such great work with great attention to details-- and are very courteous-- and leave the job site cleaner and neater than they find it-- there is no reason to shop around when A&J professional services is in town-- A&J professionals were recommended by a trusted neighbor-- now i am the neighbor recommending A&J professional services!
A&J recently installed and completed a roof at my residence in Plainfield. They used the best quality product and took care of all my concerns. Great job and pleasant crew . Al was a pleasure to work with. Took no money down! you pay when the job is done and you are satisfied. Will hire again for other home repairs.
It has been a pleasure working with Al through the process of a new roof & gutters and intend to use him for any other service that I need. He is extremely professional with reasonable prices and a quick turn-around. I highly recommend A & J Professional Services!!! Update... not only do I now have a gorgeous roof and gutters but A & J also does terrific masonry work. They were able to patch my crumbling front steps so now they not only look great but are also safe. I again highly recommend this company for anything you need done!!
AJ installed new gutters and leaders in our home. They started two days after their estimate, arrived early in the morning and worked without a break until they were done. Workmanship was excellent, he fixed things that were previously done incorrectly to prevent further leaking. Showed us step by step what needed to be done and why. All workers are very professional, did a great job and cleaned up after themselves as if they had never been there. I will definitely use them again
Service was the best. Without a doubt I will use them again for future work. The A&J team almost immediately answered my call for help with a leaky roof we recently discovered. Literally within minutes they were at my house assessing the damage. As it turned out, my roof had some shoddy work done by the previous owner which left it in a progressively decaying state. A&J discovered and repaired all of it. They were always on time and very professional, keeping my family abreast of the repair process with lots of photos and information; very transparent. I highly recommend them.
My experience with A&J Professional Services were great. They kept me informed on everything they were doing. They did an excellent job installing the insulation in my attic. I will continue to use their services for other projects around my home.
A&J does a multitude of projects. I used them to disassemble a counter and cabinets and reinstall them in another area. The counter needed to be cut to accommodate a beam and the cabinets needed to be installed around the same beam. A&J contacted me when they said they would, showed up on time, listened to my input and thoughts on what I wanted done, did a professional job and cleaned up after themselves. Their price was excellent and the quality of their work went beyond my expectations. My experience is that they go above and beyond in what they do. I am already planning another project now that I have contractors that I can depend on.
Roofing Job
I hired A&J Professional Services, Inc. to put on a new roof on my home. From start to finish I didn't have to worry about anything. When I originally met with the owner Al he explained what the job would entail, the material he would use, and he gave me a Quote. When I notified Al that I was ready for him to do the job, he immediately went into action. Ordering the supplies he would need and scheduled me in to do the job, which took no time at all. They came on time with everything they needed. Worked very professionally and kept me in the loop the whole time. Showing me anything that needed replacing. They covered the front and back of the house while removing the old shingles. They kept everything orderly and clean. Al runs his company with integrity and honesty. He does everything he says he is going to do and more. I highly recommend A&J Professional Services, Inc. I will definitely use them again and again.
We had all of our gutters replaced yesterday at our home in Piscataway, the team did an amazing job. They arrived on time as planned and were finished within 8 hours. They were professional, courteous and cleaned all the debris when the job was complete. They went above and beyond by relocating a few nests and baby birds from the old gutters to a nearby tree. Very pleased with the service and the product.
EXCELLENT SERVICE ON MY INTERIOR PAINT HOME, THEY LIVE AREA VERY CLEAN AND MAKE PROFESSIONAL SAFETY WORKES JOB. WILL BE USE AGAIN THEIR SERVICES. i RECOMMEND THEM VERY ESPECIALLY. Joseph M-Sleepy Hollow.
Exceptional Quality Work!
Just this week we had a new roof and gutters installed. Working with Al was a pleasure. He is very knowledgeable, professional and easy to work with. He texted photos to us so we could see exactly what was being done. He and his hard working team are very reliable, arriving early each day and thoroughly cleaning up when job was finished. We couldn't be happier with the end result. I know we will be calling him again with additional projects. Highly recommended!
My experience using A&J Professional Services Inc.
I was recommended to use A&J Professionals through a friend of the family and had a positive experience. They used high quality equipment and showed up promptly. I would highly recommend their services for a job well done and fair prices.
Just had a new roof & gutters installed by A&J Professional Services Inc. I couldn't have expected a better experience from start to finish. Within 24 hours of my initial call the owner Al Cardona was at my house for a free estimate. He walked me trough the whole process answering all my questions honestly offering practical solutions to issues I had & gave me an estimate on the spot. As promised the job material was delivered the day before and he and his crew were onsite the next at 7:00 am starting to work. This is no fly by night operation, they are very professional and have all the tools to perform the work. His crew were very knowledgeable, courteous and responsive to all my request. When the work was completed they left the job site spotless. I would have no problem using their services again or recommending A&J to friends & family. Thanks again Al & crew.
A&J Roofing Professional Services Great Roof Job
Had my roof & skylights replaced in October 4, 2019. I would highly recommend A&J Roofing for all your roofing needs. Very professional, Al took the time to sit with me and explain what was needed and how much it was going to cost. Work was done in a timely manner, friendly crew, and the cleanup afterwards was perfect. Brand new roof and skylights look amazing. Very reasonable price and quality work.
High quality service and a thorough Professional!
A&J team did an outstanding job in installing the roof in a record breaking time. Their attention to details and speed just baffled me. Came at the set time and finished the job even before the targeted time. Luis & team - Thank you for your dedication, customer service and the superior quality you bring to the table. For sure, will refer you to my friends!!
Exceptional Service
As a new homeowner, I was really nervous about the major job we were about to get done. Even after we finalized A&J, I was still apprehensive about how the job was going to be completed. But once the job was complete, that feeling changed. Am I glad I had made the right decision by choosing A&J. Al/Louis and his hard working team(jerry, Nelson, Mario, Guam, Orlando, Kristin) are thorough professionals. Both in terms of time and quality of workmanship(including good quality materials used). We are very happy with our new roof, we gave their referral to another friend whose roof replacement is also complete. We will continue to give business to A&J for cleaning our gutters and hence will keep Al on our speed dial for any work related to the exterior of our house 😊👍 good luck to you team A&J!!!
Excellent service Reasonable price
I called A&J Professional Services to get an estimate for new windows. Al came out the next day to go over options and pricing. He ordered the windows and they came in a few days earlier than he said. His crew was here a few days later. They did a great job taking out the old (100 years old) windows and installing the new ones. They took down our wooden shutters, gave me a few days to paint them and reinstalled them. Al even had the guys take down an old tv antenna. Al takes the time to explain things and he makes sure things are done right. The guys in his crew are hard workers and did a great job. We have now hired A&J to do a big renovation inside our house.
Excellent work, very professional
Al and his team at A&J Professionals Services did an excellent job repairing our deck. The work was done on time and to our complete satisfaction. We will certainly be using A&J again.
Highly Professional and excellent work.
They were very professional throughout the entire project. They explained the entire process and were very reliable as they showed up on time and completed the job in a timely mannor. They did a great job on my roof installation and we think it looks great. The team were tidy and cleaned everything up like they had never been there! I would recommend them to others who needs a new roof installed.
Superior workmanship.
Superior workmanship and quality materials offered at a competitive price. I picked the right roofing contractor when I selected A&J Professional Services for my new roof. The work crew is highly skilled and professional in all matters. Communication was excellent. When you are going to spend thousands of dollars on a new roof you want the best contractor doing the job, for me, that was A&J.
Gutter Cleaning And Work
Al and the A&J team did a great job cleaning our gutters, replacing a gutter and adding gutter guards to our entire system. Friendly, up front, didn't charge to replace anything that didn't need it. Cost seemed fair. Advised us of other issues with our roof that was very helpful.
Excellent work, fast service, great price
Our job was small -- a new roof for our barn shed -- but A&J got here exactly when it said it would, on Thanksgiving morning no less. Materials used are all first-quality, including a new full-length seamless gutter that will keep water from dripping (and freezing in the winter) at the entrance. And no more worries about the roof leaking. We're very thankful for A&J's professional approach to the whole job.
excellent professional workmanship replace my roof i am so happy and pleased with the work i recommend this company to everyone!!!
my experience with A&J Professional is that i found them to be very hard working plus fast reliable service to myself and my family. i will definately be calling them again on my next job.
Roof Replacement
Had my roof replaced today. A&J showed up on time. Kept me informed throughout the whole repair. Very professional. I will definitely be using them again! They were awesome!!!!
Roof Installation
They were very professional throughout the entire project. They explained the entire process at a level the client can understan and their pricing is reasonable. They were very reliable as they showed up on time each day. They did a great job on my roof installation and it looks great. Would recommend them to otherd who needs a new roof installed.
Two for two in doing excellent work
Our current project was our second experience with A&J Professional Services and for the second time, we are extremely happy with their work. Our first project was exterior work - a new roof and a number of other improvements. I gave them 5 stars for that project and am happy to do so again for this second project. This time they dealt with a water-damaged ceiling and wall in our living room and replaced our antiquated fireplace with a beautiful stone floor-to-ceilng fireplace. We are extremely happy with A&J Professional Services.
Professional and great company to work with
A & J did a great job for us. They did our siding, gutters and gutter guards, and painted our ceilings in four rooms. We are very happy with all the work they did at our house, outside and inside. Everything was covered with plastic sheeting before the ceilings were painted. They take the time to do it right, very professional. They even fixed our bay window that didn't open. Everyone said we needed to replace it; this saved us thousands of dollars. We went with A & J after getting several estimates from other companies. Don't waste your time - A & J will give you a good price and do a great job. Thank you Luis and Al, we appreciate how you were always on top of things - you made sure we were happy with how everything was getting done. It was a pleasure working with you and your hard-working crew. We will definitely recommend you to our family and friends looking to get work done at their home. Please feel free to use us as a recommendation anytime. Looking forward to working with you on future projects. Janice & Richie Checorski, Rahway Road, Edison, NJ
Quality work at a reasonable price.
We had Al and his crew take down the old gutters and replace them with new ones. They showed up on time ready to go. They all worked very hard and when the job was done Al showed me the quality work they had done and explained what they did, even showing me a few things they did that I hadn't even asked about. All for the same price he had quoted me last week. Thank You Al for everything, I didn't think we would find a top notch professional who would do quality work and also have reasonable prices. I will keep A&J on speed dial for all future roofing needs. I highly recommend to those looking for quality work AND to those looking for reasonable prices.
The best building crew we have ever dealt with...
The work was perfect, the team was extremely talented and very meticulous in all they did. The craftsmanship was top notch and a huge job including a new roof, gutters all around the house, power washing, two new porticos and other touches were completed in under 5 days from start to finish. We will most definitely use A&J Professionals for any and all jobs in the future.
Professional, Knowledgeable, Friendly
Professional, Knowledgeable, Expert contractors. It was extremely easy to work with Al and Luis. They went above and beyond to ensure the work was properly done and even did additional work at no additional cost in order to ensure a great finish. Workers were quiet, clean and respectful. Contractor kept me informed at all times and finished in a timely manner. I will definitely use A & J Professional Services again.
New Gutters
I recently had new gutters installed...my call was returned immediately. Within a day, Al came by with estimate and I accepted. Job was completed a day later. Gutters look great. It was a pleasure working with Al who is a true professional and personally oversees quality workmanship. I will definitely use A&J Professional Services again. I would highly recommend to others.
New roof, very happy
Al and team recently put a new roof on our house, as well as other improvements including siding replacement and new gutters. Great job. Very professional, very neat. Pricing was competitive. Good communication throughout the process. Highly recommend A&J.
Good repair work on storm damaged siding
A & J did a good job repairing damage to the side of our house done during one of the winter storms. They were easy to work with and we plan to work with them again in the future. They had to custom order the siding, and took the time to explain to us each step of the process, and how to maintain the siding going forward.
Flat Roof
It was my pleasure to select A&J Professional Services, Inc. after having received roofing estimates from four other roofing companies. Al called when he said he'd call, he showed up when he said he'd show, and he finished his work exactly as he said he would...and both he and his workers did an excellent job with smiles on their faces! Once you meet Al, you will know that you have met a professional man you can trust to do what he said he'd do. A&J has now put on my new roof and it was done on-time, professionally, and without surprises. I highly recommend that you both meet Al and use his excellent roofing services.
The best quality work- work space is cleaner than I had it when work is done -- always on time arrival!! Big plus!!
Can't say enough good things about A&J. They were professional, timely, polite, neat & affordable! They removed not only their debris but the debris from another ongoing construction job at my house. I would recommend them for sure & absolutely use them for future projects on my home!!!!!!! I never thought I would admire a new roof so much but the truth is I LUV my new roof!!!!!!
Satisfactory Overall Experience
We had two jobs done with A&J and are pleased with the outcome which is satisfactory overall. The five star rating is forecast since this rating will be updated once we complete our second job. The first one was to replace a rotting balcony and Al and the team found that the walls around the balcony were rotted and they re-built them, found the siding needed and finished the rooms within beautifully - this job could easily have been a nightmare but the team made it so easy to work with them and get it done. Each person on the team is good to work with. Since the work involved included the waterproofing of a balcony, we waited to see how it performed before we reviewed. After the first few snowfalls, it seems to be holding up well. The second job was to replace a deck with composite materials with railings and to waterproof a second level deck with a new product. This was a larger project and we found that the management of time was lacking but the quality of the work is satisfactory to date. The lack of time management and appropriate planning resulted in mishaps that cannot be remedied without undoing a lot of work already completed. We have accepted this and have moved on. The job is still to be finished with technical performance of some materials used to be evaluated and we will update this review once those issues are ironed out. We have assigned a five star rating because the overall experience was positive.
I recently I had A&J services install a portico over the top of my new deck and I was very pleased with the workmanship of the whole job. 1) They were always on time. 2) They keep the job site clean as they worked. 3) The materials they used was of good quality. 4) If there any issues I was told about them ahead of time. 5) They said the job would take 3 days and it did. 6) the cost of the job was what we agree to. 7) all in all my wife and I were very pleased with the whole job from start to finish.

A&J Professional Services, Inc. - Al and his Crew replaced our Roof,Gutters,Windows, Deck and Fence -This was all done in a timely manner the Crew was Excellent all the debris was removed daily -we received a daily progress update from Al.

Al and his crew replaced two flat roofs and a third roof along with gutter replacements, gutter repairs and gutter cleaning. Additionally, they repaired and painted ceilings in my garage and two interior rooms. One of the rooms had wood paneling and Al assured me that painting over it would be a good idea. As with each job completed, A&J did an outstanding job. The roofs, gutters, ceiling repairs and painting were above and beyond my expectations! Al and his crew were punctual, professional, courteous, hardworking and trustworthy. I would hire Al's company without hesitation for anything I needed done. They were excellent as were the materials he used and his pricing was better than fair. Highest ratings.
The Best!!!
Great roofing job by Al and his crew - from Al's initial proposal, which was detailed, clear, and concise - to the final clean-up. Courteous, prompt, on-time, and professional all the way. Outstanding workmanship and attention to detail. We felt confident and assured right from the start. Five-star work and a great experience and price - highest recommendation. Al is the only one I'll call for home improvements in the future. Thanks very much!

New Roof and Seamless Gutters
We had a new roof and seamless gutters done on our home and were very satisfied with the work performed. From the day that I called for an estimate to the completion of the job, they were very professional. Al was informative about all the products and procedures. He made sure it was not going to rain on the two days of the job. They showed up on time and were very neat. We highly recommend A&J Professional Services.
We had windows, gutters and siding replaced on 2 homes and couldn't be more satisfied. Not often can you find a contractor that "goes the extra mile". Not only did they show up when promised but the work was professional. Everyday the job site was left clean and neat. Not an easy task with such big jobs. We highly recommend A&J for any job needed.
My mother and father in laws got the roof done on the two houses they own by A & J Professionals.They were very happy with the work and their professionalism . Last week my wife and I got our roof done with them as well .we are very happy with the work they performed. We highly recommend this company for any home improvement needs.

Al aims to please and we can see why he was recommended to us. Thanks, Al & hard working crew for a job well done!
Quality of workmanship completed as promised
We hired A & J Professional Services for a variety of jobs this summer, including the construction of a new deck on the back of our house, new brick steps on the front porch, new walkways, and gutters. Al explained each step his crew would take to complete the jobs and he personally searched for the best construction materials to guarantee job quality and eye appeal; for example, matching the type and color of bricks to match existing ones on the porch and front of our house. The crew was courteous and professional. They completed the jobs in a timely manner. My husband and I have not hesitated to recommend their services to family and friends.
Excellent work, punctual and precise
my experience with A&J was great. From the first time I called for a quote until the job was done, Al was available any time I had a question. His guys showed up on time and worked hard. They replaced my roof, a window rotted from water damage as well as my front entry door. They were efficient and cleaned up afterwards. I will definitely recommend them to others and will use A&J again.

Outstanding Professionalism
A&J Professional Services, Inc. painted my house and deck. I am now having them replace my front walk with pavers. Al and his crew are courteous, polite and respectful.

The crew was friendly and worked as if they were working on their own house, which I greatly appreciated. Every detail was completed with precision and care.

Al was very professional and did everything as promised. Employees were very conscientious, professional and courteous. We could not have been more pleased with the final product. We would recommend A&J Professional Services for and home remodeling.
Superb Service, Workmanship and Communication
A&J Professional Services replaced our roof and then because of their excellent work, we used them again to paint our house, including replacing a number of shingles. Their work is superb, communication great and overall experience the best. We highly recommend A&J and will use them again for our next home improvement.
Excellent, Timely and Clean!
We have used Al and his crew for many home improvement projects over the years and have always been pleased. The latest was a complete replacement of our large wrap-around porch flooring and repairs to columns, roof, etc. around the porch. Because we are in an historic district, original materials must be used so he did all the floors in the original mahogany after putting in concrete based footers to shore up the underlying structure. The finished job which included sealing the flooring and painting all other wood work on the porch turned out to be truly beautiful. His staff are always friendly and clean up their projects every day. They were here everyday for just under two weeks and completed all their work in a very timely fashion. I highly recommend Al and his crew for and home repair/remodeling project.
reliable, reasonable and wonderful to work with
A and J has been doing work in and outside our home for about 8years. They have replaced windows and doors, replaced old siding and window flashings, refinished hardwood floors, maintained our deck, power washed walk and walls and many other projects. We have found them to be thoughtful and reliable and flexible as well as meticulous in their work.
A&J are "professional" as stated in the name of their business. They improved the look of my kitchen by framing the wall above my cabinet (nicely done with drywall, paint and trim). Their team also put in a new door including the storm door (air tight) as well as replace the entire ceiling with crown molding. The kitchen was topped off with an excellent paint job. The jobs are completed on time and are reasonably priced. Their crew is easy to work with and pleasant. I have and will continue to use A&J Professional Services, Inc. for all work (minor or major) for my home. WELL DONE !!!

I was very happy to see that the amazing HBO series, The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency, has been nominated for three NAACP Image Awards: Outstanding Drama Series, Outstanding Actress in a Drama Series for Jill Scott, and Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series for Anika Noni Rose.
I first wrote about the show the night after its premier:
Last night, about halfway through The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency I realized that I had been tense since the program began. It only took me a moment to figure out why. I had been so looking forward to it, so hopeful for it. But I feared that I would be let down.
But what I suddenly felt at that moment was…relief.
Also, a sort of a feeling of revelation. It is actually possible to depict Black people (and, more specifically, Black African people) without having the required one good White person? Perhaps the White school teacher from Britain with a heart of gold…. Or a White American missionary who begins the tale with ambivalent feelings about the dark people but, through a series of heartwarming interactions and growth-inducing traumatic experiences, comes to terms with both his underlying racism against Blacks and his disappointment with his God…. Or a White female Australian there to save the apes from the ravages of a changing global ecosystem and the bias and ignorance of the natives who have lived amongst the apes for generations….
No? None of these obligatory White characters are present? Just Black Africans going about their daily business and lives? Africans who are proud of and happy in their country (Botswana, in this case) and are not looking to escape to somewhere else? Africans who have the capacity for tremendous good, tremendous bad, and all levels of complexity in between? Africans who face plagues and violence and the tug-of-war of the old and the new with bravery and grace?
The very notion of such a program appearing on my television set is almost too much to comprehend….
I did comprehend the program. And wrote about it regularly. (My posts on the program can be found here.) Sadly, the series is not currently filming a second season and it does not appear as if it will any time soon—although the show's producers and HBO are said to be "in conversations" to figure out a way to bring it back. I really do miss The No. 1 Ladies and hope that these discussions will be fruitful. Until then, I know what I will be rooting for if I watch the Image Awards.

Yankee Bullpen Nickname: You Heard it Here First!
I have given a name to the Yankee bullpen:
"The -ianos."
That would be (Pedro) Feliciano, (Rafael) Soriano, and Mariano (Rivera).
Right now I am picturing Michael Kay and the rest of the YES commentators and analysts calling them by this nickname. And somehow, I get the feeling that I'll be sitting down watching a game and Kay will blurt out to John Flaherty,
"Flash, I just came up with the perfect nickname for the Yankee 'pen: The -ianos. It makes perfect sense!"
Then Flaherty will respond with something like,
"Michael, you always come up with these funny names. You are a genius ."
Then of course I will become upset, yelling at the TV set about how I came up with it first.
Hopefully the Yankee 'pen will make some noise next year. Former Yankee reliever Jeff Nelson already said the blueprint for the 2011 Yankee bullpen reminds him of the corps of relief pitchers from the Yankee Dynasty from 1996-2000.
That's a good sign.
"The -ianos" will most likely make up the heart of the bullpen and did well for what it was worth in 2010. With the Mets last season Feliciano was 3-6 with a 3.30 ERA, but was able to dominate most lefties. He only gave up eight extra base hits to hitters batting from the left side of the plate. They only hit .211 against him and he allowed no home runs to left-handed hitters in 92 appearances.
That kind of brilliance will be used to counter David Ortiz and the rest of the A.L. power lefties.
Soriano, as most people know, agreed to a three-year deal with the Yankees last Thursday. The 31 year-old flame-throwing righty will be the eight inning man in the absence of Kerry Wood, who returned to the Chicago Cubs. Soriano led the A.L. in saves last year with 45 for the Tampa Bay Rays.
According to several reports, the decision to sign Soriano was not the decision of Yankee General Manager Brian Cashman. In fact, he was not happy the deal went down, probably because the Yankees paid around $35 million for him and lost their number one draft pick.
Today Soriano was introduced at Yankee Stadium in a press conference and had an apparent exchange with the Yanks' GM.
One source said Cashman's conversation with Soriano went something like this:
Soriano: "I'm happy to be a Yankee."
Cashman: "And we're happy that you're a Yankee, too. Although I'd personally be happy with other players instead."
That would make me terribly uncomfortable.
In any event, Soriano is a Yankee. And he best live up to his contract, or else Cashman will be standing in front of all the executives who pushed for Soriano, smiling and saying, "I told you so."
Rounding out "The -ianos" is who else but the Sandman, Mariano Rivera. There's really no need to even go into detail about Rivera's capability. He is a legend. Last year he picked up 33 saves and boasted a trim ERA of 1.80. He signed a two-year deal this off-season, meaning the Yankees will be treated to his services for at least another two seasons.
Mo is Mo and I expect another solid year from him.
With the bullpen pieces in place, the Yankee relievers should make life easier for the starters. But just remember, if Kay, Flaherty, or anyone else for that matter calls them "The -ianos" and says it's their idea…
No no no.
You heard it at Yankee Yapping first.

Ballad of a Soldier is a feel-good film, which dwells at length into the nobility of Mother Russia: she had so many children she could spare for the Great Patriotic War. Of course there were gulags too. The film is however concerned for soldiers barely out of their teens. Our hero is Alyosha Skvortsov (Vladimir Ivashov) is one such. His is the story of sacrifice. Ballad of a Soldier is all about giving an identifiable face and context to one who ends up as an unknown soldier.
Filmed in 1958 and released the following year, is a product of the post-Stalin Soviet era. It stands as dynamic proof that an apolitical film could be made despite of an oppressive regime had its grip thoroughly on the minds and bodies of the people.
The story of the film is an odyssey. An elderly, melancholy woman walks along a bleak landscape and stops. She is the mother of a Russian hero whose remains are buried in a distant land, identified only as an unknown Russian soldier. It has been two years since she has seen him and she knows everything about him till he was sent to the front. The flashback follows.
Our hero is Alyosha Skvortsov (Vladimir Ivashov), assigned an humdrum job of a field observer, manning a radio device from a solitary foxhole. But with such intrepid advance of the Germans he is frantically reporting to his unit two tanks bearing directly down upon him. He holds his position until it becomes clear that the lead tank intends to run over his position. So what does he do? He turns and fires on the lead tank with his rifle. One good turn deserves another. Is it not? So he knocks out both tanks and becomes a hero!
His unit commander would like to recommend him for military decoration. But Alyosha wishes to return home to see his mother and help her fix a leaky roof. The commanding officer allows him six days leave – two days travel each way and two days to complete the repair.
Such a journey is a journey in hope as with the soviet style of hope, to co-mingle with those of several others of various ethnic hues and scars of service for the motherland. Then of course he Alyosha has to bribe a soldier in order to hitch a ride on a freight train. He meets another stowaway- a beautiful dark-haired young woman.
She is Shura (Zhanna Prokhorenko), who claims to be traveling to meet her boyfriend. Soon enough they recognize they are cut of the same cloth in hope and goodness. Despite several disruptions they catch up with one another and they know they are made for each other.
But duty demands their ultimate sacrifice. He has barely reached home hugged his mother before he is back to the front again.
The story is well-paced, rolling along inexorably like the rhythm of the wheels of the trains.

Have you seen a Gas Giant wandering aimlessly through space? Our solar system might have lost it while dealing with some dynamic instability 600 million years ago. It might be blue, is probably big and is believed to be somewhere deep in the Milky Way Galaxy.
Not to be confused with Tyche, which may or may not be hiding/captured in the Kulper asteroid belt along the outer reaches of the Galaxy, this nameless planet was first noticed missing yesterday when the Southwest Research Institute revealed data from simulations showing the evolution of planetary orbits only make sense if there was a 10th (9th? 11th?) planet hovering around in the solar system all those years ago.
If you have any information regarding the whereabouts of this unnamed, theoretical planet, please contact the Southwest Research Institute. [SWRI via Wired Science]

Anesthesia is used to eliminate the pain felt during a procedure. For this procedure, the two most commonly used are spinal and general anesthesia. You will be given one of the two types.
With spinal anesthesia, your anesthesiologist will inject medicine into your lower back. This will cause you to feel numb usually from the base of your rib cage down. To make the placement of the needle easier, you will be asked to either lie on your side curled up or to sit on the side of the table hunched forward. During the procedure, you will also receive medicine that makes you feel relaxed or sleepy. Although the spinal anesthesia will take away all sensation of pain, you might still feel some pressure and movement during the procedure.
The other option is general anesthesia. This type uses medication to put you into a deep sleep so that you do not feel any pain, pressure, or movement during the procedure. In order to do this, you will first be asked to breathe through an oxygen mask. Then you will be given medications through your IV, which will cause you to feel pleasantly relaxed and quickly drift off to sleep. After you are in a deep sleep, a breathing tube will be placed into your windpipe to assist with your breathing throughout the operation. Your anesthesia care team will give you other medications as required during your procedure through your IV.
There are many risks and side effects that can happen with anesthesia. It is important that you talk with your anesthesiologist before the surgery. Be sure and tell him or her about any allergies or health conditions you have. This will help the anesthesiologist know how to take care of you during the surgery and if you will need any special attention.

In 1959 the Supersonic Transport Aircraft Committee recommended the construction of a fleet of long range intercontinental airliners which would fly almost twice as high and over twice as fast as those in service at that time. In 1962, the British and French Governments signed an agreement to develop the aircraft together. Two prototypes were built, 001 (French) and 002 (British), which had to have low drag at high speed and high lift at low speed. On 2 March 1969, 001 made her maiden flight, limited to 250 knots and 10,000 ft altitude, the 002 made her maiden flight on 9th April 1969.

The best turkey decoy is a turkey
By Babe Winkelman
Send a link to a friend
[June 03, 2014]
wonder why turkeys sometimes hang up when they see your plastic
decoy? It could be in their eyes. Not the decoy's eyes. The TURKEY's
eyes! Here's the thing: turkeys and other birds don't see things the
same way we do. They have different rods and cones in their peepers
than what we have. It's scientific. But what it means is that birds
can see within the UV spectrum, and we can't. It's reflective light
that our measly human eyes can't detect.
So, even though a painted plastic decoy might look really
realistic to us... to a turkey it might not look real at all -
because of the way it reflects UV light (which means Ultra Violet).
That old deke could have the most perfect shape, size and posture,
but if the feathers aren't resembling real feathers to a turkey's
eyes, then he's going to scratch his head and say "man, there's
something about that bird over there that just ain't right!"
So, to prevent this sort of impostor recognition from happening, why
not use the real thing for your decoy? I'm not saying use a live
turkey. And I'm not saying to take your precious full-body mount out
into the field and beat it up. But what I AM saying is to make use
of those feathers from turkeys you harvest that are NOT going to the
Instead, become a taxidermist yourself!
Here's what you do: First, kill a turkey. Second, when cleaning the
bird, take his hide. Start at the base of the tail with your knife
and make an incision all the way up to the underside of his beak.
Then skin him out. Don't worry too much about being surgical here.
If you make some mistakes, no big deal. Just skin him out as best
you can. And if it makes things easier, cut his wings off before you
start skinning. But don't throw them away! You'll need them. Fold
them into themselves and set 'em aside.
After you have your turkey skinned, stretch it out on a big sheet of
thick cardboard and pin all the edges down with, well, pins. This is
the whole bird skin we're talking about now. Head and all (minus the
beak, because you can't skin a beak). If your end result is a Tom
decoy, fan the tail feathers out for the tanning process. If you're
after a hen impostor, leave the tail in the closed position.
[to top of second column]
Once the skin (skin side up) is stretched out and while it's still
wet, sprinkle it very liberally with 20 Mule Team Borax. In a cool,
dark place, let it dry (re-sprinkling it with Borax from time to
time). The drying process takes 2-3 weeks, so be patient.
Once the hide has sufficiently cured and tanned, then go grab your
ordinary plastic turkey decoy. That will be your "form." Consider
yourself the most basic taxidermist who ever lived. Apply contact
cement liberally on your decoy, then wrap your turkey skin over it.
Make it look as good as you can, and don't beat yourself up if it's
not perfect. The live turkeys won't care. It's the authentic quality
of the feathers they're after. After you have the form all wrapped
in the feathery hide, then you can pin and glue on your wings on it.
Boom, you're done.
If you think it's a crazy notion building your own turkey decoy this
way, think again. Those real feathers will do their magic out there
in the field, much better than any painted replica will do.
Remember, savvy duck hunters have used the hides of ducks and geese
as decoys since man developed the wits to hunt with decoys! It's not
fancy, but it works.
Plus here's an added bonus... when you build something to help you
harvest fish or game - whether it's a dry fly for trout, a tree
stand for deer, or a turkey decoy for your next Tom - there's a
unique fulfillment to that. A real sense of accomplishment! Give it
a try. Because really, what have you got to lose except maybe that
Tom who goes running because he saw your plastic decoy and thought
"something about those feathers weren't quite right..."
