MY COMMITMENT
I remember remodeling my house and finding it incredibly difficult to have someone call me back, actually show up at my house at an arranged time, and to do quality work.
I understand that it can be overwhelming to you as a homeowner to maintain and repair things around your house.
I promise to call you back, to provide you a fair estimate (and do my best to meet that estimate), to ensure you are happy and satisfied with your projects.
I depend on referrals and I want you to be so happy you tell all your friends about my work.
Thank you for the opportunity to work for you and to make your house a home.
Sincerely,
Mark B. Mullert
