Shanks delivers fast, competent work that often exceeds customer expectations. Mark and Eric earn consistent praise for professionalism and thoroughness. However, communication gaps between office and technicians lead to incomplete scopes, missing parts, and inflated quotes. Several customers report paying $250-2000 for jobs that required their own intervention afterward, and one documented parts marked up 300% on minor repairs.
