He replaced my leaky and falling apart shower faucets and shower hose. it was not easy to do this because they are old fixtures. but he persevered and found similar fixtures that could be used without having to break the wall. I very much appreciated his persistence and efforts and they look great and they work great! I’m very happy! Franks your man if you want great honest and reputable service!👍 Frank/Tortora Maintenance did power washing of my house and two decks and did an outstanding job - it was alot of work and the results were awesome - they also installed new gutters on my home and the results were just as outstanding.
