Drove behind one of your guys on I-70 from Wanamaker entrance all the way to Burlingame & out of the three times I was looking your employee switching lanes could not take the time to use a turn signal to let others of his intentions. Do you send your employees through defensive driving classes? Apparently not. You are a business, a local one. Be an example to others out in public. Turn your headlights on and use your turn signals seconds before switching lanes would be a nice start. Makes your company look bad in the eyes of the public. This is what the van looked like which ended up turning into the Cardlock parking lot.

We had our kitchen faucet stop working over Labor Day weekend. McElroys was the only plumber to call us back. They worked with us over the phone to diagnose the issue and insure that we could leave on our trip and take care of the problem when we returned. They were professional and courteous and took care of the issue in a timely manner. We will be using them from now on.

As a third generation builder and master electrician as well as being EPA 608 certified, I can tell you they are just another company disinterested in anything but overpriced work for unaware customers. I will never use them nor recommend their service. Of the three times I've called them they refused to come every time.(I live in Lawrence), citing "no interest in that type of work" (servicing a system because they didn't do the original install).

You guys came here for a free estimate on my furnace but your free estimate came to the conclusions I needed to replace my furnace. I decided to get a second opinion from Dunco they were great come to find out that paying 74.00 dollars for a service call I found out my ignitor was bad. They replaced my ignitor and waived my service fee. Not to mention dunco was a lot friendlier.
