Marie F.Yelp - Sacramento, CA - Honest and 100% accountable
"John and his crew are amazing! Reasonably priced, honest and 100% accountable. They do what they say they will do every time, and within the given timeframe. I have used them before for small jobs and was always pleased. The whole house re-wire (1932 knob & tube wiring replaced) went very well, even with an old lath & plaster house with weird old add-on structures that caused some extra labor. We couldn’t be happier with the job that was done."
Peggy G.Angi - Orangevale, CA - John was quick to respond
John was recommended to me by a friend... I'm so glad! Though my problem was simple, John was quick to respond, gracious, quick to fix the problem and with most fair pricing! I'd unhesitatingly recommend this company any time!!!
