Customer Feedback:
Hargens Inc.
“I recommend them very highly. They started out working on our rain gutters when we had a new roof installed, and then I found out that they do heating as well! They do quality work, and they meet all of their appointments (which is a rarity in this day and age!). They respected my time and my family, and I really appreciate that. Unbelievably nice, accountable, and they don’t make any false promises. If this is how they always conduct business, they are going to be around for a very long time. Integrity and honesty go a long way.”

“Harry keeps track of the things he does for me in his diary, as well as what things need doing. Every two weeks, he does all my woodwork, dusts the lamps, and cleans the rugs. He can do anything. I am very happy with him.”

Customer Feedback:
Detail Carpet Care
“We used a carpet cleaner out of a coupon book, and the stains came back the very next day! So we called Jerome, and he re-did everything, and the stains stayed gone! After everything was said and done, he did the best job and offered the best value. He did a great job on my daughter’s carpets, too—and they were a lot worse than mine!”
