Guys thank you so much!! Jack from your prompt communication and scheduling to Jordan who came out and was noticeably very sharp and highly efficient in his knowledge and troubleshooting skills. Guys thank you so much for getting me and my office back up and running. Appreciate the outstanding service!

One of your drivers threw his lit cigarette out the window while driving!! After calling the company to report it, being told THIS IS NOT THEIR PROBLEM AND HUNG UP ON!! Especially with the HUGE fires we have in Reno/Sparks right now!! How irresponsible!! Imagine what their work ethic is like, they don't seem to care about what their actions could cause. NEVER DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY!!

Not sure if it is the owner or an employee but they are one of the worst drivers in Reno. Speeding, cutting people off and tailgating is a terrible look especially if the name of your company is on your truck.
