ant to enjoy the great outdoors free from bugs, harsh winds, rain, scorching heat and harmful UV rays? Screen Solutions can help. The Windermere firm will create environmentally-friendly, custom-built screen rooms or enclosures that are perfect for any patio, hot tub, deck or outdoor space.

The company is a subsidiary of exterior railings firm HD Railings Ltd., which has served the valley for more than 14 years.

“Our screens are ideal for someone who has a deck or patio on their home, or a nice yard and would like a freestanding structure to relax in without being eaten alive by bugs,” explained owner Harold Hazelaar.

From simple screened walls to freestanding, screened rooms — Harold will site build screens to fit any space. These come with the option of fixed, permanent walls, or screen curtains, which can be pulled back when not in use.

The screens not only provide protection from mosquitoes, wasps and other insects, they also shelter against the elements, making outdoor spaces more usable, whatever the weather.

1820 Wilmai Place, Windermere Phone: 250-342-7656 Web: www.screensolutions4u.ca

You’ll get bug, weather and UV light protection with custom built screens from Screen Solutions.

Custom built on-site Block up to 80 per cent of ultraviolet rays Perfect for any outdoor space “The screens help to cut up to 80 percent of ultraviolet rays from the sun, so deck furniture lasts longer and your skin is exposed less,” Mr. Hazelaar explained.

In addition, screen rooms retain some heat from outdoor heaters, keeping the screened area warmer on chilly days or cooler summer nights.

All screens are custom designed and built, so any taste, style and budget can be catered to; with prices based on complexity. Installation takes anything from four or five hours to a few days, depending on the project. Contact Harold today for a consultation.

hen Bob and Judy Beck moved to Fairmont from Calgary full time in 2004 they noticed a strange phenomenon. By the time October rolled around, theirs was the only house on the street still occupied. The Becks saw a need.

In 2006 they started a business, Valley Solutions, to take care of those empty homes.

Valley Solutions focuses on the needs of snowbirds and the vacation homeowner.

Together, Bob and Judy check homes as often as insurance requires and more often when temperatures drop below minus 20. They can be there to meet contractors should the home owner need to replace a leaky tap or have a room repainted.

“We are the homeowner’s presence in the valley,” Judy explained. “Wherever they are, they can call us and we will head straight over.”

About one third of Bob and Judy’s clients rent out their homes through a vacation stay website. Judy and Bob will check on the home after the tenants have left, working with the

“We check there is no damage, wait for cleaners to arrive, and organize repairs if they are needed,” Judy said.

“I’m here to look after the home and make sure the renters stick to their agreement.”

If there’s a home emergency, Bob and Judy are quickly on site to arrange any repairs needed and to prevent or minimize damage.

“We are retired, but this keeps us busy and Bob is very handy, so all in all Valley Solutions is a good fit for both of us,” Judy said.

E

xceptional quality, a wide selection of fresh, healthy choices paired with national brands and second-to-none customer service is what the team at Valley Foods prides itself on.

While meeting industry standards is good, the staff and management at the family-run grocery store would rather work hard to exceed them.

At Valley Foods the needs of the customer come first and providing an excellent shopping experience is of utmost importance. As the grocery store is independently operated, the team can embrace change and put it into effect readily and easily.

When customers voice their requests, opinions or concerns, the staff and management listen and quickly respond. As a direct result of customer feedback, the store has expanded its range of specialty and gluten-free products and now has the widest selection in the valley.

When customers asked for a larger range of fresh, healthy foods, the team provided it.

Also growing at the downtown Invermere store is the selection of take-home and lunch foods. Since hiring executive chef Hung

Khuu, the deli has been serving up a creative selection of hot lunches and a wider choice of sandwiches alongside fresh salad rolls. Future plans include providing gourmet take-home dinners for busy shoppers to reheat and serve with minimal fuss.

Valley Foods was purchased by owner SydneyAnne Porter 14 years ago, and after eight years in charge, she brought in sons Greg and Eric Lapointe to help operate the business. Greg and Eric now run the store, utilizing SydneyAnne as a consultant.

Continued recognition at the annual Columbia Valley Business Excellence Awards is a testament to their success. AG Valley Foods has been named Retailer of the Year eight times (in 2001, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2010 and 2011) and Business of the Year three times (in 2002, 2003 and 2009).

In addition, in 2012 Sydney-Anne was honoured at the East Kootenay Influential Women in Business Awards and Greg and Eric were named in Kootenay Business Magazine's Top 10 Business People of the Year.
