He dealt with our architects and other trades in the kindest most respectful manner and was always available when he was needed. He was on site every day with his 2 workers, cleaned up before they left,  and doesn&#8217;t work on multiple jobs at the same time.<br \/>I trusted them all totally. We had a 2 week break in our renovation when various materials were late&#8230; i was never worried that he wouldn&#8217;t come back to finish everything out. If something was incorrect he gladly fixed it without a fuss.<br \/>I feel so lucky to have found him. he and his guys were a true pleasure to work with!<\/p><p>Electrician:<br \/>\n <span class=\"plp-active-page\"><span class=\"\">%<\/span><\/span> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.brownstoner.com\/forum-archive\/2011\/05\/kitchenbath-ren\/2\/\" class=\"post-page-numbers\"><span class=\"\">%<\/span><\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.brownstoner.com\/forum-archive\/2011\/05\/kitchenbath-ren\/3\/\" class=\"post-page-numbers\"><span class=\"\">%<\/span><\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.brownstoner.com\/forum-archive\/2011\/05\/kitchenbath-ren\/4\/\" class=\"post-page-numbers\"><span class=\"\">%<\/span><\/a> ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We&#8217;ve just completed a full gut renovation of a our kitchen and an adjoining bathroom in our 1901 townhouse.
