The craftsmanship was great. Harry was very good at taking out idea and making it happen. The problem is the fountain has not worked right even though he has come and “fixed” it several times. Now he doesn’t answer my texts and the system isn’t working at all. I’m very disappointed.

"This company responded extremely quick for my request, of which I needed. Their price was high compared charges other customer's I know who have paid for such repairs. There was a minor mix up with the charges applied to my charge card, but that was resolved quick enough. The customer has not complained about the work done. Again, the thing that was really impressed with was the response time and I can only assume that was a contributing factor for high price."
