Derek and Brandon removed a very old and abandoned water heater from my basement. It was many decades old, with thick steel walls, and had a lot of accumulated sediment. They had to move it up a narrow and steep staircase, and did the job with a high level of teamwork and without complaint. They are "go to" guys for challenging work. I am impressed.
