    Not that time was a huge issue but getting it done in 1 day was nice. Cleanup was very thorough, I spent about 5 minutes picking up after they left.
    That's awesome.. like my Father always says if your going to do a job, do it right, and then clean up everything before you leave the site.

    Here is a good one that you'll like..
    A few weeks back, I had some roof, vinyl siding and some wood around my back sliding glass door that needed to be worked on. Thunderstorms and the inline wind gusts that they make, rips into everything. The first guy came out gave me an estimate of $700 not including parts, to do everything in 2 days a nice guy (so I thought).. he went over everything that needed to be done. I had another guy came out, went over the same stuff that the other guy said in regards to the repairs. Then told me that his guys could do everything in "one hour" or less for $150 including labor! The other thing that the 2nd guy did, is he used composite type wood like Trex on the bottom of the glass slider. That was smart, as it won't rot out like the other wood did.
