    Adam was very professional, patient and took time to listen, explain and answer any questions. He clearly knows what he’s doing and takes his job seriously. He diligently worked hard and got the jobs done and it looks great. He kept everything clean and was so courteous even when coming in and out of the house so many times always insisting on putting his shoe covers on and off even when I told him he didn’t have to!
