Les installed a new dishwasher for us. His quote was competitive and he came promptly. He did the install with no issues. We had a custom door panel which he installed. It was quite obvious. He knew what he was doing and was experienced. I strongly recommend him.

Les is a hero. My install was more complicated than expected due to some drainage issues, but he took it all in stride. Figured out a solution and saved the day! Highly recommend for the value and professionalism.

Les came to our rescue, after Lowe’s let us down with delivering a new refrigerator, and left it in the garage. We have a copper water line that lowes should have told us their delivery people could not install.
Les showed up, had to take the Front door off the hinges in order to get the new fridge into our kitchen.
Les finished the job with no issues and we would call him again to install other appliances. You should too… he knows what he’s doing!

Les arrived when he said he would, he got to work right away removing my old microwave and installing a new one. He does fantastic work paying attention to detail and with his years of experience made the job look easy! I would recommend him for your applianceinstallation, I will use him again without hesitation! I am recommending him to our condo board for future work at our complex, a true professional 👍👍
