      Had to replace our old water heater, and we go a new one. I was shown a few options, and chose from there. I was informed on why I was having the issue, what could have been done to mitigate it, and how to upkeep in the future. Sean was great.

      Called to get leaky water tank replaced. The team sent Jeff over and performed way above any expectation… He is a great tech but mostly a wonderful human being. He was clear and complete in his communications. Helpful and thoughtful the whole way through. Great guy! His knowledge and professionalism shines in what he does, and does well. I have his card and will not ever hesitate to reach out, for anything that may come up in the future. Jeff leads in representing what I like to call “old school” approach to customer service and managing any task or service he provides, from simple to complex. You got a winner there, for sure!
