Good dude but bad communication shit
Getting an estimate was really easy and the job was done quickly. I had two tanks removed from a 2.5 foot high crawlspace, with doghouse entrance. Not a drop of oil was spilled and the space was left very clean!

Peter is a very nice person and his crew are always nice to me when I have to visit. My mom was working there for a while when she was visiting Maine, and she actually enjoyed the work.
