Plumbing Express, Inc. Highlights Sustained 4.9-Star Rating for Plumbing in Sarasota Florida

SARASOTA, FL - September 23, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Plumbing Express, Inc., a family-operated plumbing company serving Sarasota, Bradenton, and surrounding communities, has reached a customer service milestone with a sustained 4.9-star rating across hundreds of verified reviews. The recognition reflects nearly four decades of service in Southwest Florida since the company opened its doors in 1986.
The high rating comes at a time when regional demand for residential and commercial plumbing continues to grow. Plumbing Express reports that customer feedback has consistently cited responsiveness, transparency, and technical expertise as reasons for the strong marks. A sample of the company's customer reviews can be viewed through its Google Maps business listing.

Among the services drawing repeat praise is water heater repair in Sarasota FL, a category the company notes tends to spike during seasonal temperature shifts when aging units are pushed harder. The company also handles water heater installation for tankless and hybrid electric models, drain cleaning, sewer line repair, and gas line installation.
Paul Bogacz, a representative for Plumbing Express, Inc., attributed the rating to the company's approach to diagnostics before repair. "A rating like this is earned one job at a time," Bogacz said. "The team focuses on confirming the actual cause of a problem before recommending work. For example, running a camera through a line before hydro jetting protects older pipes that could be damaged by pressure alone. That kind of care is what customers remember when they leave a review."
The company employs licensed plumbers trained across a range of residential and commercial systems. In addition to repair and installation work, Plumbing Express offers hydro jet cleaning, water filtration system installation, water line repair and replacement, backflow testing, well pump repair, and remodel support.
The company's service area extends north into Manatee County, where it provides emergency plumbing in Bradenton FL for urgent situations such as burst pipes, failed water heaters, and sewer backups that require immediate attention. Plumbing Express notes that emergency calls often involve time-sensitive damage prevention, which places a premium on fast, accurate response.
Bogacz added that the company views the rating as a benchmark rather than a finish line. "Maintaining a score this high over hundreds of reviews is harder than reaching it once," he said. "The standard is set by the last customer served, not the first. That mindset shapes how the team trains and how it handles both routine appointments and after-hours calls."
Plumbing Express reports that the review milestone coincides with continued investment in technician training and diagnostic equipment. The company describes this ongoing investment as central to sustaining service quality as it serves a growing customer base across the region.

A&A Motor Werkes Highlights Growing Shift Toward Independent BMW and Mini Repair Shop Services

HONOLULU, HI - September 23, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
A&A Motor Werkes, a licensed auto repair facility in Honolulu, Hawaii, is drawing attention to a notable trend among vehicle owners in the region: a growing number of BMW and Mini drivers are turning to independent service providers for routine maintenance and complex repairs. The shop, which specializes exclusively in these two brands, reports steady demand as owners look for alternatives that combine specialized expertise with personalized attention.
The trend reflects a broader change in how drivers approach vehicle care. Many BMW and Mini owners have historically relied on a BMW Dealership for service, but independent specialists have increasingly become an option for those seeking technicians who focus solely on these vehicles. A&A Motor Werkes attributes part of this shift to its investment in equipment designed specifically for BMW and Mini models, as well as the use of quality parts intended to support long-term performance.
Operating under Motor Vehicle Repair Dealer License ID RD-4502, A&A Motor Werkes offers a range of services that includes electrical system repair, engine repair, oil changes, suspension repair, and vehicle inspection. The company emphasizes transparent communication and detailed estimates as central elements of its approach, aiming to give customers a clear understanding of the work performed on their vehicles.
"Owners want technicians who understand their vehicles inside and out," said Ryan Iha of A&A Motor Werkes. "The decision to focus only on BMW and Mini repairs allows the team to develop deep familiarity with these models, which translates into more accurate diagnostics and efficient service. That level of specialization is what many drivers are looking for today."
The company notes that its diagnostic capabilities extend across common concerns reported by owners, from illuminated check engine lights to suspension issues that affect ride quality. Technicians conduct thorough inspections to identify potential problems before they escalate, an approach the shop describes as part of its emphasis on preventive maintenance.
"Trust is a significant factor when someone hands over the keys to a vehicle they depend on," said Alan Erese of A&A Motor Werkes. "The goal has always been to provide clear information, honest recommendations, and service tailored to each customer's situation. As more owners consider independent options, that foundation of trust becomes even more important."
A&A Motor Werkes serves the Honolulu community with a shop equipped for the specific requirements of BMW and Mini vehicles. The company points to fast turnaround times and a customer-centered process as characteristics that have contributed to its reputation among local drivers. The team continues to monitor industry developments and adjust its services to reflect the evolving needs of vehicle owners.


A&A Motor Werkes is a Honolulu-based automotive repair shop specializing in the maintenance and repair of BMW and Mini vehicles. Licensed as a Motor Vehicle Repair Dealer, the company provides electrical system repair, engine repair, oil changes, suspension repair, and vehicle inspection services. The shop uses quality parts and specialized equipment to support the performance and longevity of the vehicles it services.

Premier Awnings and Rollscreens Introduces Retractable Motorized Lanai Roll Up Screen Installations for Residential Homes

ST. AUGUSTINE, FL - September 23, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Premier Awnings and Rollscreens has added retractable motorized lanai roll up screen installation to its portfolio of services for residential homes across the Saint Augustine, Florida region. The addition expands the range of outdoor living solutions available to homeowners seeking greater comfort, privacy, and protection from the elements.
The newly added service centers on motorized lanai screens built from a lightweight, full basket-weave vinyl-coated polyester fabric that is thinner than traditional screen materials. The fabric carries an openness factor ranging from 1 percent to 20 percent, which allows homeowners to control heat, reduce glare, and gain daytime privacy while maintaining airflow. Screens can be lowered or raised with a remote control, and the housing is available in beige, bronze, white, and ivory to blend with existing home exteriors.

The screens include retention zippers that secure the fabric to the track, helping to keep insects out, and are offered in a range of mesh sizes for different levels of ventilation. According to the company, the screens can block up to 97 percent of harmful rays. The screens carry a five-year warranty on components, while the fabric carries a ten-year warranty.
Michael Bartholomew, spokesperson for Premier Awnings and Rollscreens, said the addition responds to steady interest from homeowners looking to make greater use of covered outdoor areas throughout the year. "Lanai spaces often go underused because of heat, glare, and insects during peak seasons," Bartholomew said. "Adding motorized roll up screen installation gives residential homeowners a straightforward way to extend the usability of those spaces without permanent enclosures."
Bartholomew noted that the motorized systems were selected for their ease of daily operation. "The goal was to offer a solution that homeowners can adjust with a single click, so the screens can come down when shade or privacy is needed and roll back up when an open view is preferred," he said. "Customization options allow each installation to match the character of the home."
The Premier Awnings and Rollscreens company installs the lanai roll up screens as part of a broader lineup that includes retractable awnings, privacy screens, garage door bug screens, recessed screens, balcony shades, interior window shades, and commercial screens. Each of these products is designed to expand usable living space, manage sunlight, and provide protection from weather and insects.
Premier Awnings and Rollscreens is based in Saint Augustine, Florida, and specializes in solutions for outdoor living spaces. The company offers the installation of retractable screens, retractable awnings, and commercial screens, with products designed to protect users from UV rays, weather, and insects while providing added privacy. The company operates during standard weekday hours and maintains a strong record of customer satisfaction across its residential and commercial installations.

Information about the new service is available through the Premier Awnings and Rollscreens business page, along with details on the company's existing screen and awning offerings. The company continues to provide free estimates for residential and commercial projects in the Saint Augustine area.

Mountain Radiance Earns Multiple Honors in Regional Awards Program

ASHEVILLE, NC - September 23, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Mountain Radiance, a physician-led medical spa, has been recognized in four categories in the 2026 Best of Asheville awards, receiving a Gold award in the Medical Spa category and Silver awards in the Day Spa, Doctor, and Women’s Health categories. The practice extends its streak of being named Asheville’s #1 Best Medical Spa in 2023, 2024, and 2025. Mountain Radiance was also honored in The Guide to North Carolina‘s 2026 Best of North Carolina as one of the Best Medical Spas in the state.
The Best of Asheville awards are an annual recognition program covering a range of local business categories, including health, beauty, and wellness services. Mountain Radiance, located at 7 Yorkshire St., Suite 101, is co-owned by physician Dr. Mark Chandler and Practice Director Lauren Chandler and has operated in Asheville for several years.

"Being recognized in four categories tells us something about how patients experience care across the board, not just in one service area," said Lauren Chandler, Practice Director at Mountain Radiance. "Medical spa, day spa, doctor, and women's health are different parts of what we do, and having all four acknowledged means people are noticing the same commitment to excellence in each of them."
The Medical Spa and Day Spa categories reflect the range of services Mountain Radiance offers, from injectables, dermal fillers, and laser treatments to facials and other aesthetician-led care. The Doctor and Women's Health recognitions point to the clinical side of the practice, where Dr. Chandler, a medical director board-certified in emergency and aesthetic medicine, is onsite for treatments and involved directly in patient care alongside a nurse injector, physician assistant, estheticians and laser technician.
"A lot of what we do sits at the intersection of medicine and aesthetics, so it means something when both sides get recognized separately," said Dr. Mark Chandler, Medical Director at Mountain Radiance. "It tells us patients see the clinical judgment behind the cosmetic result, not just the result itself."
Mountain Radiance has built its approach to treatment around patient education, with recommendations based on individual goals rather than a standard package of services. The clinical team regularly pursues continuing education through manufacturer-led programs and industry conferences, and the practice emphasizes direct physician oversight across every service line it offers.
That approach extends to how the team communicates with patients before and after treatment, with consultations designed to answer questions in a low-pressure setting rather than move quickly toward a sale. Leadership has pointed to that consultative structure, along with ongoing training, as a factor separating the practice from other providers in the region.
Chandler said the team's ties to the Asheville community, where much of the staff also lives, shape how the practice approaches patient relationships.
"Our team is out in this community outside of work, too, hiking the same trails and running the same routes our patients do," said Lauren Chandler. "That familiarity changes the conversation. Patients aren't just describing what they want to a stranger, they're talking to someone who already understands the kind of life they're trying to feel good in."
Mountain Radiance has accumulated hundreds of five-star reviews over the course of its operation in the Asheville area, a record its leadership attributes to its physician-led model and emphasis on individualized care. The practice offers Botox®-type injectables, dermal fillers, laser treatments, skincare procedures, hormone replacement therapy, and aesthetician services such as facials, all under direct physician oversight.
