.

They were subcontracted by another company that installed the geothermal for the drilling of the vertical wells. They were very professional and easy to work with. They respected our landscaping and property.

From a business perspective, I dealt mainly with the prime contractor. I dealt with Yoder only because they did the outside work as a subcontractor. The dollar amount above is only my rough estimate for the subcontractor share of the job. They showed up when promised. Got all of the drilling (5 x 175 ft wells) done in one day. A week later, they came back and got all of the trenching and piping done in a second day. They were flexible. They managed to thread the trenches and pipes in between existing trees to minimize damage. They unfortunately damaged 5 buried pipes (2 I warned them about, 3 no-one knew existed) but they took it in stride and repaired each one good as new. They went above and beyond to do a little extra work as a favor while they were here and would not accept any extra money for it. They left the yard a mess, but they warned me several times about this (even with pictures) before I signed the contract, so I no way hold that against them. There was a small dispute between the driller and the engineer. The engineer was correct (as I can verify because I am an engineer myself) but the driller did it his way. But he did compromise a bit when I pushed him to and quot;do it rightand quot;. This was not a major thing (or I would have insisted more strongly), but it may cost the efficiency of my system a small amount.

Great. They told us if they had installed it they would fix it. They came, fixed it , thanked us and left
