This pro was the first to call about the job. He came when he said he would, and gave an excellent evaluation of what was needed and needed to be done. On the return visit he promptly installed the part and items to complete the job.

Review by a customerin Gaithersburg, MD Project: Install Electrical Switches, Outlets, and Fixtures
Very responsive and thorough. Didn't try to sell me on anything I didn't need. Rates very reasonable. Friendly, respectable, and appreciative of my business. Would absolutely use again without seeking other estimates as the customer experience is worth any extra he might charge above anyone else.
