they booked out the walkthrough 2.5 weeks out, then the day prior to our long awaited appointment calls us to cancel/reschedule for another week later. absolutely ridiculous considering most companies can send someone out within a couple of days at most. Horrible upfront impression, so needless to say we aren't going with them.
Description of Work: we asked them to come out and provide a handful of services to get the home ready for selling.

I apologize for any inconvenience that you experienced with our company. There are certain situations that are out of our control, unfortunately, yours was one of them we were scheduled to come out and provide a free estimate for you but our technician's job ran over and we cannot abandon another customer. Again, I hope you understand! Sincerely, Darla, Owner

Very well. Sam, the Handyman sent for my jobs, was on time and professional. He did great work with no issues during or after installation. I was reassured by the fact that he double and triple checked for leaks after he completed both tasks.

We were very happy with his work. They removed and old door bell and replaced it. The gentle man that came out worked very efficiently, and very good natured with the toddler as she liked to watch what was going on. The total time with all the jobs done was about 10 - 12 hours of work.
