"Keith showed up when planned and looked everything over. The very next day I had a written order of work that met all of my requirements. He came very quickly once I signed the contract and delivered materials. He did some pre-fabrication in his shop, as well. The work was done quickly and very professionally. I was so pleased that I recommended him to a friend who needed a whole deck rebuild, and she was very satisfied as well.

"There were issues like a portion of pipe under the sink that needed fixed as well as re-doing some of the valving that was leaking water. The guys also didn't have part with them and had to go out and purchase what they needed to do the job correctly. They also had some issue with reverse osmosis system due to the complicated set up. However they figured it out and the job was done in about 4 hours. They were very professional and cleaned up. Even helped put things back under the kitchen sink that had to be removed so that they could install the RO system and do the other plumbing work."

Thank you to everyone on the Shadowcast crew."
