I had contacted Tyler after smelling a burning and fishy odor. Smoke and sparks were coming out of the outlet from under the kitchen sink. He told me exactly what to do and came and replaced the outlet and wiring needed. He was very professional and pleasant. Would highly recommend him.

I'm not sure what else to add. It went great. Primus cleaned 5 rooms of my house in 3 hours. The rooms included a kitchen and a bathroom. They vacuumed, mopped, and dusted. They arrived a little early and worked hard to finish the cleaning. I highly recommend them.
