Equally impressed with the skilled quality of work and integrity /helpfulness of contractor. Tile patio was installed in my unexpected absence. John helped pick the tile and provided photos of same, then continued communication throughout the process. All work was completed in a highly skilled, timely and efficient manner, to my complete satisfaction.
