Arturo is a rare find these days. He's super honest and reasonable. Last year he helped me out with a caulking job and did good work. When my softener went out I made the mistake of calling a "professional". He diagnosed the problem as a bad motor, quoted me $1200 for a new water softener and he was on his way. He charged me $59 for the 3 mins he was there.
I then called Arturo (which I should have done first), and he came out on time as promised. He told me he'd give me a free estimate. He took a look at the softener and made numerous attempts to get it working. Rather then just look at it, he tested it and gave me an honest estimate. He recommended I pick up a new one at Home Depot and he'd install it. Using him will cost me HALF the money. On top of that he's a nice man, and a person I can trust around my home.
When something goes wrong around here, Arturo will always be the first call I make!
