Had a quartz (so heavy) top wet bar here and the request was to completely remove it, cap the water and drain lines, and haul, and patch the dry wall and paint. The end result came out great! They exceeded my expectations in terms of end product quality and their attention to details (i gave them the wrong paint initially!), and were very responsive to my questions and request to change the start time. Highly recommend

Mike is wonderful and one of the best I’ve ever worked with. Not only is the work quality, but he can do practically anything! He fixed our doors, change hinges, painted, drywall. He’s very communicative and speaks great English too. Can’t say enough good things about him and we’re so grateful we found him

Mike replaced the exterior plywood on an outdoor patio that showed signs of wood rot. Mike clearly communicated the work he would provide, time of arrival, and had all the necessary tools to complete the job. I would definitely use him again in the future.

Mike has been fantastic! He has completed several projects for us(kitchen backsplash, painting, custom door hanging, fixture install for bathroom and closet framing and new wall Up/ , and we trust him completely with our home. It’s wonderful to return from our trips to find everything finished. He always arrives on time, offers fair pricing, and is a pleasure to work with. He works extremely quickly, often alongside another guy who is equally as pleasant. Mike manages his schedule well and is consistently reliable. We couldn’t ask for a better person to work on our house!
