Great! Very professional, helpful and got the job done quickly and efficiently. We had to replace our 50 year old ducts and upgraded our AC system. It was quick job and everything was running so smoothly in our house with no issues once installed. 100% recommend!

Actually, he could have put in a whole new one and it would cost me a whole lot of money but he said he has done it before and he would just fix it for a couple of hundred. He said if it doesn't work, I'll call him back and he would come in and put in the toilet and take the price off.
