We just used them and we were very satisfied. It was within the last 30 days. I don't recall the final price. The owner was here every morning and during the course of the day. He was very conscientious. He had the appropriate subcontractors. I have recommended them to friends.

It was very important to me that the company not use subcontractors. The person they sent, had been an electrician for a long time, and they had just hired him in the past few months. The serviceman was very knowlegeable and professional and I was impressed.
