"Absolutely amazing work! Very professional and fair price. He is extremely trust worthy. Bryan opened up underneath my stairs for more storage. I had zero issues with leaving my house unlocked for him to work while I was at work. He even closed up my house when done for the day. Bryan was very considerate about keeping the mess to a minimum. I will absolutely be calling him again in the future!"

"I ordered a part from this company for my dryer. They claim: 2 Day Quick Delivery! 365 Day Return Policy! Free Tech Support! I returned the unused part in their own packaging and they refused to provide a refund! Apparently, there's some hidden small print in their return policy that if you open the box and touch the product, that item is no longer eligible for a refund. They claim that the part showed signs of installation such as scuff marks. I asked for the part to be sent back to me for inspection by other professionals, but they refused because they disposed of the part. I've never encountered with such a scam company as this one and advise all to stay away from their misleadings! Good luck trying to get a refund from them, you're not getting one."
