The crew from Paramont windows that installed my new replacement windows
were very professional. They cleaned up afterwards, and ensured all the
windows were in proper working order. We are very happy with the
quality of the windows, and at a great price, The windows have made a
difference in the comfort as well as the heating bill in our home.

I just had a boiler service done by Henry from Dedco group. The name of the company’s owner is Frank. He was very courteous, professional, clean and kind. I would highly recommend this company to anyone. It was my first time using service pro. When I called the suggested service companies, Frank not only responded very quickly but set up a service appt. within an hour. Henry, the serviceman, was on time and did what I felt was a good job. Way to Dedco.

My sister in Lake Mary, Florida had a problem with her wood floor. Her husband passed away and she has had problems handling personal everyday problems. I got on the internet and found ServiceMagic. They refered a company called Xtreme Carpet and Tile Restoration, Inc. She had a much larger problem than a buckled floor. She had a huge leak from a crack in the foundation of her house and a ton of water in her walls which caused the buckling of the floors. This company held her hand through the insurance process to the end of the job. She told me she has never felt so comfortable with contractors in her life and they did a top notch job. Thank you for helping my sister Xtreme Carpet and Tile Restoration, Inc. I also want to thank MagicService who I talked to on the phone and made me feel comfortable about chosing them. I’m so glad this turned out for my sister. Thanks to all of you.

I needed a new deck put in with azek deck material. I decided on Brian Young Construction and he just completed it today. He is very professional did a great job and he cleaned up after himself which is really important. This is in the Seattle area. I would hire him again in a minute. Thanks ! J. Kelley
