I think he meant they're willing to take a stand and lose business for hashkafa, even more so for hashgacha.

Is KCL considered a good hechsher?
its as good as a local hechsher can get,
they don't have hechsharim at the manufacturing process
compare it to hiemisha hechsharim that rely on OU

most DIY (mom/pop) shops in Lakewood would have a KCL on their packaging and nothing else (obviously with candies made by a different hechsher and approved by KCL)

I don't know their standards but the food is good

Stay away from Chemed. Aside from the one new Dr from Toms River the rest of the place is horrid.

Any recommendations for someone who can do a decent job at an affordable price?
I struggled with this issue and couldn't find someone to do it for a reasonable price. I took the low tech method, and luckily my tenants were OK with it. I put 2 sandbags about 3 feet before the top step. It slows down the flow of water towards the steps to a manageable level, and as long as the top of the  drain isn't clogged we're good.

Restaurant in Lakewood has the person behind the counter that was making the food not wearing a mask.
Is this by most places ? What’s the point of anyone wearing a mask if the grocery stores and restaurants don’t require the workers who deal with the food

unfortunately, I've found this to be the case in some manufacturing facilities as well. Even in regions where everyone is wearing masks

If you're scared don't eat from restaurants during these time.
