Customer Feedback:
The Window Specialist
“We are fixing up our house and dealing with all kinds of companies. The Window Specialist’s service far surpassed everyone else’s. Ryan, who I dealt on the phone the most, could not have been nicer. The job we did with them was just perfect.”

Customer Feedback:
Mr. Handyman
“They’ve done several jobs for me. They replaced the florescent lighting in my kitchen with recessed lighting, and redid the sheet rock. They’ve fixed my doorbell, and patched a hole in my living room ceiling where we took out a stove. I feel comfortable leaving them in my home alone. I’m currently having them replace a screen door on my front porch.”

Customer Feedback:
Browning’s Plumbing
“We found Browning’s in the Good Service Guide, and they’ve been out to help us a couple times. We had a toilet improperly installed by someone else, and it was leaking through to the garage. They fixed it right up, and were so polite and great.”
