Max responded quickly, and flexible on schedule. They were punctual, efficient, and courteous. They even had spare materials required even though there were some surprises on our job. It was a pleasure to work with them, and I highly recommend Max.

Max installed a transfer switch and was eager to answer all my questions. Cared about the little things and made sure it was done just right, no short-cuts. Real professional, knows what he is doing and is very punctual
