The work speaks, but so do the people who paid for it.
"Burst pipe in the crawlspace in January. He had the main off and the section cut out before I finished explaining. Pressure tested it in front of me before he closed it up."
"Solid water heater install. Price fair, work clean. Would have liked a little more warning on the arrival time, but the job itself was right."
