Home warranty called him to check my heat pump. To start off I had to call him. It was going to…read moretake a week for him to get here. I asked him due to others that were sent before messing up, if he was an A/C man. He got his panties in a bunch and started going off about how he's been doing this for 24 years. He Never said he's a trained a/c man, But.... His site says he worked for an election for 15 years. Buddy, that ain't HVAC. After he quit crying I told him to come on and what was happing. My pump was short cycling. He got quiet. Definitely didn't know what I meant. But.... He was supposed to come on. A week later, no show or call. I talked to the warranty company, telling them it's not my place to chase these "handiboys" down. They called him Thursday after he was supposed to be here Wednesday and he told them he'd check his schedule for Fri. FOR FRIDAY?! You were supposed to be checking mine on Wednesday. I called him myself. No answer and no return call. Looks folks, after 35 years in construction I know a wanna be. DO NOT MESS WITH THIS FAKE. And if it's for your HVAC, here's two tips #1 license does not mean hvac trained. Anyone can take the test to buy freon. #2 An HVAC man WILL NOT be working on toilets, painting, decks etc.. They will be doing HVAC work. Don't waste your time with this clown. And Austin, if you'd like to dispute anything I put here feel free to try.

My husband and I are very happy with the results! Everyone who has seen inside our front door lately -- friends, family, plumbers, UPS deliverymen -- seem to be wowed by Rob's work. Even my dad, who was a high school woodshop teacher for decades and designed many of the wood furniture pieces in my childhood home, was extremely impressed. Rob was very professional and a pleasure to work with, from start to finish. He made detailed design drawings by hand, and worked with my husband and I over several iterations to make sure they were what we wanted. The drawings were so beautiful, we put them on our wall while the bookcases were being built. He gave us several different estimates for different styles and wood types, and laid out the payment schedule at the beginning of the project. Rob did a great job of answering all our questions, giving helpful design suggestions, and addressing strange requests (four different types of corbels!). He matched the whole project very well to the wood grain and stain of an existing piece of furniture. When it came time for installation, Rob and his crew (including son Wes) did a great job of accommodating odd features in our old house on-the-fly, like a very slightly sloping wall and rough stone fireplace. If they made cuts to the wood, they made attempts to do it outside to avoid getting dust in our house. They also vacuumed the wood dust frequently, which I appreciated. Now it feels like we live in a university library. I could just sit and stare at these bookcases for hours. Thanks Rob!
