In and out in 30 minutes and fixed the problem too. I’ve been without power half side of my kitchen for 3 years. My Friend had the same problem and she found them. She told me on Sunday, I called Monday and they came on Wednesday. Ivan was fast, friendly and did the job in 30 minutes. Saving this # for future. Thank you so much!
