    Huge thank you to Shiann for coming in today and fixing a problem I’ve been dealing with for months. Both my kitchen sink and bathroom sink were clogged, and she fixed them quickly and thoroughly. I really appreciate her help and professionalism.

    I've lived at Colonial for about 2 years now. I've had many maintenance requests over the time I've been here. One thing is for sure, though: Shiann and Tremarcus came in and fixed my back door with such promptness, skill, and kindness towards me and my space. I'm grateful to have maintenance professionals who take care of the problem and don't create more while they're here! YAY!
