“The job itself turned out to be more involved than expected due to a cracked PVC trap behind the old strainer, but Nicholas handled the situation expertly. He and his team carefully cut out the dam... He made sure I understood the scope of work and confirmed the pricing before getting started.”

“I could not be more disappointed in their work installing my HVAC system. It has been over a month and I've still not heard back about them finishing. They were supposed to take two days and instead tool three then had to come back three times with no resolution still. They are not communicative, extremely messy, do not listen to the homeowner.”
