"Erick called to see if he could arrive a few hours early and showed up within a couple of minutes of when he then said he would arrive. The quote was a happy surprise, and he finished installing four LED bathroom fixtures within three hours, leaving me plenty of time to run necessary errands. Absolutely tops!"

"Good points:  they were punctual.
Bad points:  they left trash in the yard that I had to pick up; the ceiling in the room that his crew painted has bled through stains that he failed to correct even after I pointed them out; they were rushed the entire time; they took shortcuts and did not paint under the outlet covers and I had to ask them to go back since I had bought all new covers and the old paint showed and still they failed to paint under all of them so I had to go back and paint it myself; a piece of furniture that Mr. Bautista worked on still has a sticking door and now needs to be stained because he took off so much wood with his planer; a member of his crew parked on the grass two of the three days they were here when I asked them not to park there; it took three people to install the ceiling fan after much trouble and they had almost given up on it and told me that I would have to take the fan back after it was in pieces; Mr. Bautista was in a rush the entire time which led to mistakes and trash left in my yard; it was obvious that Mr. Bautista was not interested in working on my house; it is difficult to contact Mr. Bautista by telephone because he never picks up; and there were gobs of white mud or spackling dropped on closets doors.  The mud was removed but not painted over even though he was using the same color paint.  Mr. Bautista later mentioned his rich clients and I later realized that was the reason for his apathy on my job.  Mr. Bautista seemed more interested in his rich clients.  I paid him in full the same day he completed his work.  But he refused to correct the problems I pointed out with the ceiling paint.  Please view the photos attached.
More bad points:  Mr. Bautista borrowed my sander to work on my furniture and he installed the sand paper incorrectly.  I have to buy a new plate on the bottom of the sander.  The door he worked on still sticks so I will have to work on it myself and then stain it.  After his use of his electric planer, I lost confidence in his work, became worried about my furniture and objected to the bad smell coming from the planer.  
I told Mr. Bautista about the trash in the yard but he did not come back to get it.  I found another piece of trash this week. 
Later, I found out that Mr. Bautista is very successful and has a lot of "rich clients" and wants to keep his reputation and will not work on my house because I thought his workers had inadvertently taken my rubber hammer.   Because I had to paint after him, I had to get out the paint, and couldn?t find my hammer to close the paint can.  I had a lot of my own painting tools out in the same room his workers were in and thought they had inadvertently picked it up.  I later found it and apologized before he ever read the first email because I wrote the email late at night.  I sent the second email before he would have received the first one but he used that excuse to say that he would not work on my house again as previously promised although I do not want him back.  Since he thinks that I am not a rich client as he mentioned them, he did not seem to care much about me.  Perhaps that
explains for the substandard rushed work.    
He told me about how successful he was this year and last.  He also told me that although he had a $30,000 construction license, he gets around it by separating jobs into smaller jobs and can make considerably more than $30,000 on a job.  His brother was building a house.  I consider that unethical and greedy.  There are more than 3 workers on his crews as
it states on the description of his business.

"The provider called and arrived prior to the scheduled time.  He installed the rods efficiently without leaving any debris on the
floors or marks on the walls.  Then he asked if we wanted him to hang the drapes and curtains on the rods.  This was very much appreciated since it was an unexpected request.  In addition to these tasks, he also completed the installation of a towel rod and he was willing to do other jobs for us before he left.

Bathroom Fan Installation questions, answered by experts

Regularly clean the blades, check for loose screws, and lubricate moving parts to prevent noise and wear.

WD-40 in its liquid or aerosol form is highly flammable. Using it around live electrical parts, such as a bath fan, can generate fire and a dangerous condition. However, if you follow proper safety procedures, including disconnecting the power to the fan before working on it, WD-40 can help remove some of the grime that builds up in your bath fan.

Yes, a fan can help drywall mud dry faster by improving air circulation and reducing humidity in the room. Drywall mud dries through evaporation, so increasing airflow speeds up this process. However, you should position the fan to blow across the room rather than directly on the wet mud. This helps prevent drying too quickly, which can cause cracking. You should also use a dehumidifier if high humidity is an issue.

Replacing an AC fan motor takes one to four hours for a pro to complete, depending on how easy or difficult it is to access the AC unit. A pro may also spend extra time inspecting the unit to make sure everything else is in good condition. It may take a few days or a week between the time a pro orders a new fan motor and when the replacement comes. 

When maintained and repaired when necessary, your whole-house fan can last between 10 and 20 years. Check your warranty when purchasing the unit, as it will typically only cover between 5 and 15 years. Its longevity will also depend on your local climate and how much you use the fan. Having a professional size your fan appropriately for your home size will also help ensure it doesn’t get overworked, which can limit its lifespan.
