We hired Chris for some emergency work we needed done at our rental home. He was responsive, did a fabulous job and his rates were great. He didn’t over-charge us and was very honest about the scope of work. He didn’t try to over-sell us on more work. Most importantly, he always did what he promised. I asked for an invoice for tax purposes. He provided it right away instead of me having to ask several times. Thank you Chris, will hire again!

We had a pipe burst emergency and no heat in the house. They showed up the same day and worked hard to find and repair multiple broken sections.

It turned out to be a bigger job than expected, but they stayed and got the heat restored before our tenants moved in.

Chris is great! Firstly he came to break several holes to find the leaking, then buy materials and come back to fix the next day. Fix replace the pipes and then put back dry wall and compound and cleaning up after done all in one day.

Thank you for the quick response and effort during a stressful situation.

Details: Yes, repair is urgent • No, the building is not currently flooded • Leaking pipes • Burst pipes • House
