"Creig was extremely professional and responsive. He got everything done on the list (which grew by a couple of items during his first visit to the home to provide an estimate). Due to the urgency of getting the home ready for professional photos and listed for sale, Creig agreed to perform the work on a Saturday, even though he already had one job scheduled that day. He stayed until 10:00 p.m. on Saturday, in order to get the work done. I will definitely call him again for any home repairs!
