This year, the outlet was no longer working.  I called Larry on a Tuesday and informed him of my issue and that after some basic troubleshooting, I believed that the outlet was bad.  He said that there wouldn't be a problem stopping by on Thursday morning, as there he was working in the City and had to pick up his tools from a jobsite.  I went home early that afternoon to wait for is 2:30 arrival, which was a "no show".  I called him around 5 and he told me that he was rerouted that day and didn't store my number in his phone.  Could he come on Friday AM?  I said OK and rescheduled my Friday appointments.  I received a voicemail from him at around 8:45 that evening, informing me that he was again "rerouted" for Friday and can he come Monday morning after rush hour "for sure by 9:30 or 9:45".  I had trouble hearing the message over the background noise from what sounded like a bar (a Hawks' playoff game was that night).  I texted him that I would again rearrange my Monday schedule and stay home.

Monday, at around 10AM, I texted him to ask if he was still on his way.  No response.  At 11:45, I left a voicemail.  I'm still waiting for a callback two days later.  Yesterday, I replaced the bad outlet myself.

I wouldn't recommend these guys, unless you have nothing better to do than arrange your schedule around their no-shows and lack of punctuality.
