Professional, hard workers, excellent communication. Installed tankless water heater, removed the old one, took care of the electrical for the unit, ran a new gas line into the house to accommodate needs, rerouted some existing lines, it was a pretty big project with a lot of small details. The guys at Coleman not only listened to our detailed requests, they did them - without us babysitting!!! They even fixed/finished a few things a previous plumber did incorrectly. Highly recommend this company.
