Great quality work from a true professional. Melvin did an amazing job to our basement room. We originally requested his service to repair the drywall and studs after we had a sump pump and canal installed in our basement. After speaking with him and getting his estimate, we went ahead and trusted him to finish the entire room. He will be finishing up the base trim soon, but it’s an amazing transformation. I highly recommend Melvin.

The women did an amazing job! They got rid of dust, cleaned the windows, vacuumed all hair and were so meticulous. They left everything sparkly clean. I’m glad they even dusted my washer and dryer. Very happy with my service! Will definitely hire again.

Impressive! Melvin and his team answered my request during the first major snow event of the year. They cleared our driveway to perfection! There was at least 10 inches of heavy snowfall that trapped our car and overwhelmed our physical capabilities to shovel an exit. Then, B&C came to our rescue, cleared a path, and left us with peace of mind. Very professional and skilled. I highly recommend!
