Testimonials

“I had a very pleasant experience with Tom as our temporary technician in Livermore and Stockton. I remember the first time I talked to Tom on the phone, he talked to me in a very courteous manner which made me think that maybe this was his only strength, and that I had to spend time training him on the various electrical systems and water systems in the company. To my surprise, he was able to quickly learn the water systems in our company, understood safety procedures and completed tasks in a timely manner. Overall, it was a good experience and a great resource for us” – Agustin, Electrical Mechanical Superintendent
