Hired Jason to do some electrical work for my dishwasher since they are not allowed to be hard wired anymore. He was fair within price. Not only did he do the electrical work but without asking he also installed the dishwasher for me. I was very happy. I would hire Jason again.

We had an issue with the technician that came to the house. The technician did not run a cycle for the dishwasher to see if it ran and drained properly. We had to troubleshoot and have a second technician come out.
