We need pretty major plumbing work on our old house. Do you have experience with a reputable plumbing company you could recommend?

We have a company that we always use but this time, they've been the only ones to evaluate the situation. Before I accept their bid, I would like to contact 1 to 2 other companies to come out and give a quote. I'd prefer a reputable company. We went with the cheaper option for our sprinkler system and I regret it. I'll pay a little more for quality.

So, if you have any recs?

Thanks!!!

Fire on Chenal Parkway

Does anyone know about the fire on Chenal Parkway near St. Margret’s Episcopal Church?

I drove past a few minutes ago and smelled smoke and saw about 4-5 fire trucks. I’m curious what’s burning if anyone knows. (I didn’t want to rubber neck while driving)

Crescent City movie

Just watched Crescent City last night. Shot in LR. Alotta cool shots and they even show the police station and documents clearly saying “Little Rock”. But I’m confused because they’re in “Crescent City”. I’ve never heard anywhere other than NOLA called that. Does anyone know the connection or why they did the movie this way? I’ve been very confused by it.

Neglected dog in Midtown LR

Neighbor leaves dog outside without shelter all day everyday barking and crying 8 or so hours I guess while at work. The dog is outside in the rain without cover at this moment again. Animal services is not open on Monday to take a report. The site says to call the police dept if outside business hours so I did and they refuse to check it out saying its not their job.

I'm a dog owner so part bleeding heart here, but it's bs and owner should be accountable. Any ideas or just let the dog scream in the rain and mind my own business...

Considering moving to LR/Alexander

Hi all! I currently live in SC and it just doesn't feel like home anymore. My fiance and I both think a fresh start would be good for us so we're starting the process to save up for a big move. One of the areas we've considered is the LR/Alexander area. What can you tell me about the area? Do you like living there? What are the pros and cons of living there? Are the people friendly? Is the healthcare system good? I want the good, bad, and ugly.

A little bit about us that might help:

  • Both of us are in our early 30s
  • Both work from home
  • No children and no current plans to have children
  • No family or friends in the area
  • Generally homebodies but we do enjoy going out sometimes. Our favorite things to do are: have a couple drinks at a bar/brewery, walk around parks/downtown, attend concerts, go to festivals/faires, go to zoos/aquariums
  • Big foodies. We love trying new foods and places to eat
  • I'm chronically ill and disabled so access to quality healthcare is important
  • Looking to be homeowners not long term renters. Ideally we'd be able to find a home either before we move or shortly after

Thanks in advance!

Any live punk/pop music?

In Little Rock for the week and wanting to see it there’s a punk or pop music scene here. I don’t want metal bands or country. That’s all I can find here. Live music preferably.

Register Car - Just moved here

I just moved to Little Rock and need to register my car in Arkansas. I purchased the car in another state, so already paid taxes on it.

Any idea how to estimate how much it will cost? My car’s value is $40K.

Need emergency vet recommendations

Currently heading to AVES on Pleasant Ridge Rd. I keep calling, but no one is answering.

Edit: Got to AVES and even though the electric Open sign was on there was a note on the door saying they couldn’t see anyone until 6pm. Went up the road to Out West and they were able to help.

The Used mezzanine tickets?

My boyfriend and I are coming into town for the show, and I have a friend I’d love to bring, but mezzanine tickets are sold out on every platform I’ve checked. Does anyone have one they’d be willing to sell? If so DM me, I’m willing to buy above the original ticket price!

Banker’s Life

New to the area and applied for Bankers Life. I saw that almost 2k people applied. They called me the next day and the lady seemed almost seemed new with so many filler words. Feels like a place that has a high turnover rate. Says people make between $45k-$100k a yr. Anyone work there? Any comments or advice? Need a job that’s more than $14/hr

Care Link transportation issues

Has anyone had any issues with their loved ones not being able to be serviced by Care Link? It’s happening more and more frequently. Sometimes my schedule doesn’t allow me to take my older loved ones to their appointments. Just wondering.

Volunteering for cats

I moved here a little over a month ago and I was wondering if there are any places where you can volunteer and work with cats. I’m fine with dogs too but I’m mildly allergic and just prefer cats in general. Thank you!

Anyone use the Burns Park boat ramp lately?

This might not be the best place to ask this question but I will give it a shot. Has anyone used the Burns Park boat ramp lately? The last time I used it there was a tree down in the waterway right at the exit to the river. Map
