This should have been an easy job...changing batteries in too high to reach detectors...obviously we have an issue with defective detectors even though they were all replaced in 2017. Ed was able to make the god aweful chirping go away in time for Christmas Eve. We have many jobs coming up in spring to get our too big home for empty nesters on the market. I will be relying on him for his expertise. Glad to have found him! Professional, friendly and knowledgeable. extremely fair on final nvoice. ,
Responsive, pleasant, easy to work with
Ed was great. He was friendly and patient. Before starting the project, he asked us thoughtful questions about our future plans for the space so that he could to how to best move forward (ex: hole placement in the wall). He also spent a lot of time answering our questions about potential projects we'd like to do in the future. We will definately be contacting Ed again!
