“Faucet Replacement”

Roberto is so fantastic to work with. Super knowledgeable and friendly. Very professional and courteous. He moved my towels back under the sink neatly stacked after he was done working. It’s little things like that that motivate me to write the 5 star review. I’d recommend him for any plumbing job and I would call on him again in the future if we needed his services again.
