Highly recommend. We had a monster of a clog in our cast iron plumbing and were stuck without a working shower for a week. Other plumbers were booked up, but I called C-U Trade services and they were able to come fix it That same day. Thanks guys! 😊
Response from the owner:Thanks, Kayla! We’re glad we could get that cast iron clog cleared and your shower working again the same day. Appreciate you taking the time to share your experience.

We recently moved into a new home and discovered that the air conditioner had some issues. Mainly it wouldn’t turn off. I looked online for a service company and saw some great reviews for CU we called and Parker came out late afternoon and was extremely thorough very professional and very friendly. He wasn’t able to diagnose the entire problem but said he would reach out and talk to somebody that he felt good shortly after that, we got a call and Dan came out made some adjustments that helped and then was extremely patient and thorough explaining what the problem was and why came back out about a week later and replaced the thermostat and now we’re good to go. We found this company to be very responsive very accountable, extremely professional and thorough. We will be calling them for any other services that we need as well.
Response from the owner:Congratulations on your new home! We are so glad you called us when your AC was not working properly. Parker and Dan are both excellent technicians and we are so glad to hear they got things running and explained everything to you as that is what we strive to do on every job! We look forward to working with you down the road and thank you so much for the positive review!!!

This was fantastic service. We called about a blocked dryer vent and Parker resolved it less than 24 hours later. C-U’s customer service was outstanding.
Response from the owner:Thanks, David! We’re glad Parker could take care of your dryer vent quickly and appreciate the kind words about our customer service.

We use CU Under Construction for anything we need around the house and they always do a great job. Our technicians Jeremy and Parker addressed some plumbing issues for me and did a spectacular job as always. Can’t say enough good things about this group.
Response from the owner:Thank you for such a positive review! We're thrilled to hear that Dan provided excellent service during the installation of your Nest thermostat. We appreciate your support and look forward to assisting you again in the future.
