Any suggestions for mechanics in Coquitlam? Nothing special needed, 2007 ford ranger needs someone! Thank you!

Hey I’m looking for recommendations for nail technicians specifically that do builder gel!

Also preferably a tech or salon who isn’t overly expensive 🥲

Hi there!

My name is Hannah Bath, I am an Advocacy Constituency Team lead volunteer with the Canadian Cancer Society and am hosting an event at the beautiful Lafarge Lake in Coquitlam on September 12, 10am-2pm.

I hope to see you there!

Living in South Coquitlam.

Was there any fireworks around Port Moody? Just saw it for a while from home.

Is anyone missing a small-medium white dog (possible chihuahua mix) in Coquitlam? Seen running down Gatensbury st. We have followed it to someone’s yard on Ivy street in Port Moody but can’t seem to get a hold of it, it is very scared.

I was walking by today and snapped this photo. It looked pretty busy, with lots of food vendors and festivities going on.

For anyone who actually went, how was it? Any food that was especially good or worth trying? And what did you think of the festival overall?

Curious whether it’s worth heading back for a proper visit...

Can anyone recommend a dog walking service that offers private or group (4 dogs max.) on-leash trail walks? The few I’ve found online require dogs to be off-leash, and have too many dogs in a group for my liking. Walkers on rover seem to only do neighbourhood walks. I’m looking for a licensed and insured company or individual that operates in the Coquitlam/PoCo/Pitt Meadows/Maple Ridge area.

TIA 🐶

A good time to check out the beautiful moon this evening. Pictures taken by my daughter in Coquitlam.

I noticed what looks like a large lighting rig at Riverview today. Does anyone know if they're filming something there?

For anyone who goes to Club16 in Coquitlam, how’s your experience been?

I’ve been wanting to start going to the gym, but I’ve been putting it off because of my social anxiety. I also have basically zero gym experience. I don’t know how to use any gym equipment or what a proper form would even look/feel like. I’ve watched YouTube videos and done my own research, but I still feel like I wouldn't know what I’m doing.

I feel like having a personal trainer would help me get comfortable and learn the basics. Does anyone have experience with the Club16 personal trainers? How much do they cost, and are they worth it?

ALSO! Any advice for a complete gym beginner would also be appreciated! Thank you Reddit!!!

Looking for a tennis partner and new friend in Coquitlam or Tri-city area during weekdays, I'm around 2.5 - 3.0

Hey all!

So we're on the hunt for good sushi to replace our old faves in metrotown.

So far we've had very disappointing sushi and service from Sushi California (both locations), as well as Sushi Plate (it was good, but very sweet???)

I love smoked salmon, Cali gives you a 1mm strip of salmon and fills the roll with fake crab and cucumber. Also wtf is with using lettuce as a filler?

I had look at Yoko Sushi on Austin, but nearly $9 for an avocado roll, I stopped scrolling.

I'm also willing to go to Sapperton in New West if there's a good go to there.

The SD43 school trustee election is on October 17.

recently moved. Would like suggestions for an RMT as the title says and also a place that does foot massages (i’d like the foot massage separate)

Can anyone recommend a good place for car scratch repair? Wife did a crappy parking and scratched the car. I don't see any dent but the scratch is down to primer. Thanks..

Does anyone know if there are any chestnuts on the ground in Mackin Park yet or even better anywhere closer to Town Centre? I don’t know if they work for spiders but I’m willing to try anything!

Hello! My fiance and I are leaving town for 1 ½ weeks and need someone to look over our hampster

We are leaving the 22nd.

Our sitter cancelled on us last minute and this is a desperate attempt.

All you would need to do is come in, feed our hampster and make sure the bedding isnt covering the wheel.

If this isnt allowed just take this down.

Could someone help us?

I have a Paragon commercial popcorn machine that’s not working. I’m trying to find a small appliance repair shop/person and having no luck. Can anyone help?

I have a friend with a moldy, damp basement. Insurance won't touch it, so she's on her own. Can anyone recommend a restoration company that can repair the damage and also determine the source of the moisture?

TIA!

Looking to sign up for an adult beginner program and came across tennis for life (TFL) in coquitlam. Has anyone had experience taking any level of these programs?

I reached out to get more details on how it works, pricing, etc. but would love to hear more about it though before committing quite a bit of $$.

For context I (27F) play casually around 2-3x /week, I’ve taken lessons at a different club but it was only 1x/week for a month. It was alright, I learned good basics at a 1.0 level but would’ve liked the duration of the program to be longer to see more improvement.

Not a car guy and I rarely use the AC, but with how hot this summer has been, I’ve noticed that my car AC isn’t cooling anymore (could be a leak). I looked into recharging it myself, only to find out that my old beater uses R134a, which is heavily regulated in Canada, unlike R12a.

Canadian Tire quoted me $330 without seeing my car. I also called Budget Brake & Muffler Auto, and the owner was nice enough to recommend waiting until next year because R134a prices are apparently through the roof due to high demand.

Still, I’d appreciate any suggestions for alternatives that's below $200. The thought of driving a hotbox for the next few months is not attractive ><

Thanks for reading!
