Beau T. says, "I hired Sergey yesterday. He was very responsive and helped me get my job started right away which was nice. I’ll start with what was good… he was very thorough in his work. I had expressed concern about my tv console not falling from the wall as I have two cats that like to jump on everything and I have to admit, it’s in there secure. As is the mirror he mounted. I don’t wear shoes in the house and he respected my home in that sense to follow suit. I didn’t have the hardware needed for an install and he made the trip to the hardware store, was back in a considerate amount of time. Also, he was very affordable especially for the quality of work given. The opportunity areas for Sergey, I think he could have asked more questions about my job and what I wanted. He did ask some but I feel like I gave more information than I was asked. I also had an area rug cleaned the same day/time he was working in my place that he stepped on while wet. My apartment isn’t large and perhaps he needed space to review his work, but if he asked I would have moved the rug so I guess I’m suggesting better communication. Lastly, he didn’t work very fast but again the quality of the install was amazing. If I could give half stars this work be a 4.5 rating but I’m leveling down to 4 only because Sergey had been present while the carpet was getting cleaned, a bit more attention to that detail would have gotten me to push this up to 5 stars. For the price and quality I’d consider hiring him in the future and feel positive recommending him for hire."See more
