“Dennis came out on time, explained all of the repairs needed and their associated costs. The leaking from my toilet was due to a worn out wax ring. During the replacement process, he discovered the flange needed to be repaired. He ensure the flange repair was stable, and then replaced the wax ring. Excellent work!”
