John was responsive, punctual, and very careful. He quickly understood the issues that I was trying to fix with my microwave installation. The results exceeded my expectations. I would absolutely hire him again.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
We do discounts for large jobs.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
The client tells me what exactly they are looking for and I listen and then repeat back the results they are looking for. When they agree, then I start my work.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I started as an apartment maintenance man in Bellevue, then residential and commercial construction, then joined the IBEW Local 46 to do electrical work, then went on my own after I amassed enough tools.
