"Mir and his assistant did a great job mounting my 4 TVs. They were friendly, courteous and professional. His price was very reasonable and I wound definitely use his services again."
"This was a very professional crew. They met every term that they outlined, and during installation on a remarkably rainy day, they took great care to put down drop cloths and keep the place clean. They also took extra care to make sure that the water heater was installed properly on a slightly sloped floor, and that they restored all the elfa shelving within a very tight space. Would definitely recommend them."
"Carlos was wonderful. He gave me a better price than others, and did more work. He repaired a door I had been told needed to be replaced and put 2 screws in a door handle I had been told needed to be replaced. Both work perfectly. He did all my projects perfectly and without me asking, he even bought paint to match a small area of wall. He left everything very clean."
"They were very responsive, they provided a cost estimate of all of the items, they negotiated with it and they did the work in 4 days. They have an outstanding service and the owners were extremely pleased with the customer."
"Luis and his crew did an amazing job installing flooring in my attic and building shelves. I was really, really happy with their work. I will definitely be asking him to do additional jobs in my house."
"Jose and his crew (Thomas, Mario and Domingo) went above and beyond on these jobs. They remodeled my basement and bathroom. They showed up on time, were very respectful with my property and did amazing work. Communication was great throughout. They did some extra custom work in my bathroom, which really made the room pop! These are very talented craftsmen, who take pride in their work. I've already hired them on to more projects at my house because I know I can trust them. I can't recommend Jose and his team high enough. I'm super happy with the results."
