Asphalt Paving and Sealcoating ScamsKnow the Warning Signs!
Selling door-to-door:
A professionally designed and properly constructed asphalt pavement will last for many years and most reputable contractors will stand behind their work. Consumers are safer dealing with a contractor who has roots in the community. Look out for those who are:
Reputable asphalt contractors will sometimes offer their services if they are doing a legitimate job in the immediate area. Always ask for references.
Claiming they have leftover asphalt from another job:
Pushing you to make a quick decision:
Not offering a contract:
Accepting only cash:
Offering a deal that seems to be good to be true:
Driving an unmarked truck:
Professional asphalt contractors will know, with great accuracy, how much paving material is needed to complete a project. Rarely will they have leftover material.
Reputable contractors will provide a written estimate that will be valid for weeks or months. If the great deal they are offering you today is not available tomorrow or next week it may be a scam. be valid for weeks or months. If the great deal they are offering you today is not available tomorrow or next week it may be a scam.
Insist upon a written contract specifying in detail the work to be performed and the agreed upon price.
Most reputable contractors take checks or credit cards and don't require cash-only terms.
If the quoted price seems very low, chances are the quality of the work will also be quite low.
Often the trucks they travel in are unmarked or they have an out of town address and phone number. A little research will reveal that they have no permanent address and the phone number is often an answering machine.

The Mahoney family has been operating for over 30 years specializing in breakfast and lunch! 13 of those years in the Swedeland section of Upper Merion, where they also reside. It all started as a small luncheonette in the pharmacy of the gateway shopping center where Ronnie was always there to serve his patrons with a good cooked meal!
Along with his wife Peggy and 5 sons, they created an atmosphere and experience that no big chain can provide. Family friendliness and personal service from dedicated staff are just a few of the perks.
As a small family business, we take extreme pride providing breakfast and lunch in all of our locations every day! Dinner is also available at the Royersford location. We invite you to come in to find out about us for good food and conversation.
Chef Ron can be found at any of the locations, Peggy is at the King of Prussia location and Joseph, the youngest Mahoney, can be found in Collegeville. Joseph graduated from Montgomery County Technical School culinary program in 2012 and is excited to help continue the tradition.
We look forward to meeting and serving YOU!

We don't have the Zika Virus (yet), but now is the time
Take the BITE Out of Summer - Safely!
To avoid being bitten:Wear light colored clothing, and long sleeves & pants when possible.Repair tears in window screens to keep mosquitoes from sneaking into your home.Stay indoors at sunrise, sunset and early evening when mosquitoes are most active.Use yellow "bug" lights outdoors - they attract fewer mosquitoes (but they are NOT repellents) Carefully use insect repellent effective for mosquitoes with the active ingredientsDEET (N,N-diethyl-meta-toluamide), DEET (N,N-diethyl-m-toluamide), Picaridin (KBR 3023),or Oil of Lemon Eucalyptus [active ingredient: p-menthane 3,8-diol (PMD)] following instructions. Where covered, apply to clothing instead of skin.
For more WNV/Mosquito information:
www.montcopa.org/564/Mosquito-Control
http://www.westnile.state.pa.us/index.html
Montgomery County Health Department:
PA WNV Control Program:
Check for standing water at these spots at least once a week, especially after rainfall:Birdbaths · pet water dishes · saucers under flowerpots (empty regularly or fill with sand) · open garbage cans · toys or other materials left outdoors · sheets of plastic, tarps and Jacuzzi covers · gutters clogged with debris or not graded for proper drainage · old tires (take to tire shop to be recycled or drill drainage holes) · litter (eggs can hatch in a pool as small as a bottle cap!), · holes where trees have been removed (fill with soil or turn into a rain garden) · lawn or landscaping depressions · floating debris in ponds · ornamental pools (stock with fish or aerate) · swimming pools (maintain proper chorine levels year round & make sure filter is operating from May through October)
Mosquitoes that cause West Nile Virus can breed in standing water as smal l as a bott le cap. El iminating standing water breeding sites at home is the best long-term, environmental ly friendly solution. Where standing water can't be eliminated, placing Bti "dunks" (available at hardware stores) in standing water pools is an environmentally friendly way to prevent mosquito growth. Keep grass clippings out of the streets that wash into storm sewers and provide a breeding ground for mosquitoes.

Be Prepared for Summer Storms & Power OutagesIn recognition of National Electrical Safety Month this May, we would like to remind the public to be prepared for summer storms and power outages. Summer storms can cause electrical safety hazards on your property. Lightning, downed power lines, standing water and power outages are just a few serious safety concerns. To protect your family, follow these safety tips:
Lightning strikes tall targets, so move to a low point and crouch down. Stay away from trees. Avoid metal objects (bats, golf clubs, fishing rods, tennis rackets, tools, ladders). And stay away from water (pools, lakes, puddles).
You are safer in your car. Do not leave your vehicle during a thunderstorm.
Q: What should I do if I'm caught outside during a lightning storm?
A:
Q: Am I safer in or out of my car during a lightning storm?
A:
Q: What should I do if I encounter a downed power line?
A:
Q: My basement flooded and there is standing water. Is it safe to go down there?
A:
Q: I bought a portable generator to be prepared for the next power outage. Can I plug it into an outlet?
A:
Stay away from all downed power lines, and do not drive over downed power lines. If you are standing near a line that falls down, shuffle away keeping both feet together and on the ground. If you are in a car near downed power lines, do not get out of the vehicle. Report hazard to PECO.
Never step into a flooded basement or building if water is covering outlets, appliances or cords. Never touch electric appliances, wires or cords while you are wet or standing in water. Never turn off power at the breaker box if you must stand in water to do so. Contact the co-op to shut power off at the meter.
Do not connect generator to an outlet or home wiring unless a transfer switch has been installed by a licensed electrician.
Without a transfer switch, electricity can backfeed through the home to power lines, creating an electrocution hazard for linemen making repairs. Also, never operate a generator inside; this can result in carbon monoxide poisoning.

Dog Training
Hi Brittany!Before we discuss correcting and preventative techniques, it is important to understand why your puppy is pulling on walks. One of the main reasons dogs pull on the leash is because they have a lack of focus on their handler. Puppies are especially prone to being easily distracted since everything is so new to them.
Here are some tips that can help you gain more control on your walks:
Bring high-value treats on the walk with you.Using a treat, such as cheese or something you don’t give your puppy often, will help him/her be more driven to work harder for it. This willalso help reinforce good behavior in the future.
Feed and praise for focusing on you.Use the high-value treats as a reward or bribeif necessary. Over time, your pup will start toassociate getting a tasty treat in exchange forhis/her attention.
Limit the amount of leashyour puppy has.Giving puppies too much freedomencourages distractions and restricts your ability to have control. You should keep your puppy close. A good rule of thumb is to keep your pup’s head in line with your body.
Mark the inappropriate pulling behavior.Quickly altering your direction while using your voice to attract your puppy’s attention will shift your dog’s focus back onto you. A simplecommand of “hey” or “no” is a sufficient way to achieve this.
Praise some more.Once your puppy’s attention is regained, praise and reward the good behavior to show a job well done. Never praise a bad behavior, as thiswill confuse your puppy.
Be patient, repetitive and consistent.Remember that puppies need structure and consistency in order to learn. You won’t see change happen in one day, but repeating the same routine and correcting the pulling will help make the learning process easier and more beneficial. Thank you for your excellent question. We wish you many joyful and pleasant walks to come with your puppy!
For more help with leash walking or other behavioral issues, we have various training options that are sure to fit both you and your dog’s needs!
How do I stop my puppy from pulling on the leash when we go for a walk?
