Ceiji did an outstanding job 👍
Blake's explanation is clear and understandable. But the possible date for tenting is is too tight. Wishing to have a few more dates to chose.
Blake was great! He did a thorough inspection and let me know of a couple issues he did find. I'll set up an appointment with Josh's and have them come out and spot treat those areas, easy peasy. Thanks!
