"Kerence has been a blessing to me in my home renovation journey. As a single female homeowner I’ve had the worst experiences over the years with other contractors and handymen. Kerence on the other hand has been knowledgeable, a quick communicator and has foresight regarding the order of which things need to be done. He knocked out my kitchen cabinet install by himself in a few days. Prior to doing the cabinets, I had a small water spot in my kitchen ceiling, he went into the attic, found the source and remedied it. When he finished was kind enough to salt my walkway before leaving. He’s cleaned my gutters and caulked some gaps in them. He also has patched various drywall holes around the whole house. A pleasure to do business with and I plan to use him exclusively for future projects. 10/10 Thanks again Kerence /KCS & Sons!"
