Provider: Matthews Towing & Automotive, 704-708-5304, Ask for Eric or Tom

Service Provided: All major and minor repairs, both foreign and domestic

Recommended by: Jeanie & Tom Calello, 409 Walnut Point Drive

Comments: They are honest, reasonable, and reliable and AAA approved. Finally after 5 years of going to a number of different Auto repair shops I came upon these people by accident two years ago when I needed to have my Cadillac towed. When they informed me that they could do the same repair and substantially less than the Dealer quoted I tried them and was very pleased with the results and have used them for general service on several family cars over the past two years.

Comments: Rating of Work: 5 Stars.  The quality and attention to detail is like nothing I have ever seen before in the construction business, the price is expensive but well worth the investment. You get what you pay for, they are on time, and they do what they say they will do. In most large projects there are bumps along the way but what matters most is not if there is a bump along the way but how it is handled. They do an excellent job.

Painting

 

Provider: Dutch Brothers Painting Company, Eric Doejaaren, 704-882-2614, DutchBrosPaintCo@hotmail.com

Service Provided: Indoor/outdoor painting

Recommended by: Rebecca Haydon

Comments: Eric and his brother did a great job for us when they painted our kitchen and family room. They scheduled the work promptly, completed it in the amount of time they said and did great work. The edges around trim and windows, etc were done neatly and they even cleaned up paint on the trim from a previous paint job. I highly recommend them. The only drawback is that they do not do repair work if they are doing outdoor painting.

Provider: Simitrio "Semi" Gonzalez, (704) 713-7733 Cell (Best way to reach)

Service Provided: Painting

Recommended by: Karen and Gary Randolph

Comments: Semi painted a number of our neighbors' houses and so we hired him to paint all of the inside and outside of our house.  Semi and 2 others completed repair and painting on the inside in 5 days.  They started at 8:00 am and worked until 5:30 every day, taking a brief lunch period.  They were very neat and clean and as a matter of fact, they didn't spill a drop of paint anywhere.  They moved furniture and patched holes and cracks.  I am extremely happy with the results and the quality of their work.  This is a hard working family man who has been in this country and has had this business for 8 years.  He speaks excellent English.  I would highly recommend Semi to any Sardis Plantation Homeowner.
