I needed to change my toilet and wanted someone who could speak English so I did not have to keep using Google to translate what I needed. Santiago was very easy to talk to and communicate with, very calm, trustworthy, and easy to schedule with. He changed the toilet, cleaned up, removed the debris and the old toilet, and everything works as I expect. He gave me a fair price, I am very happy with him, and I would recommend him.

I hired Dominik to check out a short circuit that happened, see if the electric connections were alright, and change the lights that were affected. He came with another person, they did the job, and he was very professional. When I asked questions, he responded very clearly and explained things well. It was a good experience, he fixed the problem, and the price felt a bit on the high end but he is a very skilled person.

Marc has always fulfilled on time, came very quickly to the places, and responded with seriousness on delivery and price. He did maintenance on some properties for me, an integral reform, and also installations of electricity and water, and when I need someone I keep him in my agenda. He is not the cheapest, but he is serious, keeps his price and at the end of the work there are no surprises - the job ends as he said it was going to be. Communication with Marc is very good, he responds right away.
