My wife and I have built a couple houses and done additions and it's always been a pain. Something always went wrong. This was unbelievably easy. John Shea made it fantastic. It couldn't of been a better experience. He even helped with things that weren't his responsibility. We were so surprised after having had those other experiences where things weren't done right. It was a really great experience.

We were very pleased that we selected them. They were exceptional to work with, on top of the job and communicated well. My wife was concerned about having people unsupervised in her home and later she said that she would be comfortable having dinner with the people who came to work.

The professionalism and skill of the tradesman CTS hires is unmatched. They care about their craft and take pride in the end product.

Without hesitation, the punchlist was competed. And, since the tradesmen were top-notch, the punch list was not very long at all.

Review of LeafGuard of St. Louis by Diane F.
I had an excellent experience with LeafGuard of St. Louis. They did what they said they would do when they said they would do it. Everything worked out very well.
Review of Tri-State Water, Power & Air by Raul M.
We are very happy with our water system. I can see the result in my skin and my hair. I can brag with my friends that come to my home because of the excellent water system that I have. It is one of the best pieces of equipment that I have in my house.
Review of Champion Windows of St. Louis by Nancy B.
Unfortunately, the measure was done incorrectly, but they made it work. We were inconvenienced by the wait time which caused unnecessary stress. Although the window looks nice, we are aware of the mistake. The installers were very courteous and clean.
