Enrique was excellent! He was efficient and made sure to reach out beforehand so that he brought everything needed for the electrical work. I thought I would need an entirely new dryer and with a quick rewiring, he fixed it! Would recommend him to everyone!

Ben took down a chandelier and TV before my move. He was nice, quick and very thorough. I'll definitely work with him again in the future.

Michelle S.

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

James A.

Carlos was fantastic. He went above and beyond and explained my options each step of the way through. I had thrown a few different tasks his way and none of them were a problem whatsoever. Needless to say, everything is working perfectly. Very knowledgeable and personable and really great with pets which makes things SO much easier. I have three dogs who can all be a handful when barking away in the rooms with people over, but he was very friendly and the dogs calmed down immediately and settled in which I think as a pet owner says a lot... Highly recommend him for anything you may need - will be using him again without question!
