Lil’ Brother arrived on time, were polite and clean, and came in under their bid. We had them look at 2 different possible projects for us, one which they tackled, and one which they were honest and advised us they couldn’t do. I appreciate it when a person/company knows their expertise and limits and doesn’t tackle a project just to make money. I was very pleased all the way around. Great job guys, we will definitely use you again!
