DO NOT do business with this lousy company. They were supposed to show up to fix a bathroom leak and replace a water filter. Unreliable and irrersposisble. They cancelled twice without prior notification. They did not bother to call us, just did not show up. Worst experience ever.

"Chris Started out doing quality work, but his (brother) helper did lousy work. Chris got the trex decking down with quality work. But then I was his helper , he was suppose to have this job done by the end of May. He was suppose to be here Monday through Thursday 7 am to 3pm. He was hardly ever here , sometimes once a week . My wife and I were starting to do more work than him. He insulated the underneath of the enclosed part of our deck . When we looked at it the insulation was falling out the bottom and there was large pockets not insulated but he stapled a clothe thing over all the insulation and areas that he didn't insulated. Pictures will follow , in July he texed me and said he couldn't make it Monday as he often did, that he would be here Tuesday through Thursday, come 2pm Tuesday he now showed. So I texed him and told him this was not working for us that he could pick up his tools. He used my chop saw for most of what he did do."
