Wobbled with the labor quote, however, after it was said and done, Matt Flock did an excellent job to replace my kitchen faucet. He discovered two faulty valves under the sink and replaced the old plastic parts with brass. Excellent work by Matt. And, the customer service team was spot on with timely contact and follow through.
