David did an excellent job of installing our thermostat! Polite, friendly and even cleaned up before he left. We would highly recommend him!

Kemi B.

Very good professional who was excellent in doing his job & sorting out the electrical issues others seemed to have had difficulty fixing.

Kabita L.

This is our rental property. The tenants informed that the mechanic repaired the machine a day before and they are happy with the work.

Nathan I.

He clearly wasn't a highly trained electrician. I knew more about installing a light than he did. He also didn't have a car.

Nathan E.

Zee was really helpful as i didnt know what was needed or how the equipment was meant to be installed. He executed job perfectly

Michelle S.

Hoan was fantastic. He took time to explain everything he was doing. He was prompt, respectful, polite and very knowledgable. A+

No particular problems. He was good. I had a long list of items, and the two big items that were highest priority for me weren't done.

Bill was wonderful. Courteous, punctual, and most of all was, he was able to troubleshoot and fix our broken heater.
