"They're very personable and reliable as far as showing up on time. Rob Buckle's father is also a builder. He also consults on the job, which I liked. The apple didn't fall far from the tree. I really liked their general demeanor. It can be intrusive to have someone in your home. It meant a lot to me that they were friendly, cordial, and considerate. I feel these are important attributes for someone working in your home." -Candace K.
