Best Ceiling Light Installation in Fort Worth TX
These guys are a standout team. The circuit breaker for our family room would not reset and I needed a quick fix to get our internet back up. I called 308 and Sissy answered, took my number, and said she'd see if she had anyone available to help this afternoon. She called back about five minutes later and said she had a technician who could be there in 30 minutes. She gave me the pricing up front and gave me a quote for the estimated parts needed. The price seemed frankly better than I expected.
Sure enough, 30 minutes later, Ryan was at the door. He replaced our breaker and then tested it and saw that the problem wasn't fixed. He then quickly went through the affected outlets, found the problem, and fixed it. All-in, they had my house back online literally 90 minutes after I called them.
THEN, I had mentioned to Sissy that I had a non-functioning floodlight and could the technician take a look and maybe give a repair estimate while he was here, recognizing that he would likely be between scheduled jobs due to the short notice. Instead, when Ryan got here, he hopped up on a ladder, took down the floodlight, and diagnosed and repaired it on the spot. Incredible. By the way, that 90 minutes I referenced above included the time for this second repair.
And the pricing was transparent and reasonable! The breaker cost less than the original estimate. 308 has set a new benchmark for customer service for me. They have more than earned all of my future business.

If I could give a zero ratings I would. Please find another company. I have had an insurance claim and I decided to use Mars Services. I am still waiting almost a year to complete the work on my house. Allstate reported that they were hard to reach, left voicemails, and emails with no response. I have worked with several representatives from Mars Services and they were all fired or quit for whatever reason. I am very disappointed that I still am waiting on work to be complete and April mark a year of me working with them.

UDATE INCLUDED Below! DO NOT HIRE THIS GUY! DO NOT PAY HIM IN ADVANCE!! I have to take him to court to get my money back for services he failed to provide.
!!UPDATE! HIS RESPONSE IS AGAIN MORE LIES. I have all the texts and phone call records To prove it. He has 1 5 star review. I did not say anything to him as he left. He makes up anything he wants and pretends it's truth. RUN from this unscrupulous person. Yeah I dropped a couple f bombs in some of my responses because he frustrates you beyond reason with lies. He owes me $160 before court costs. I offered a $100 settlement and he refused. He wants to give me just $25! I would give negative stars, if I could.
I have never had to write a review like this. You can see my posts and usually, if someone misleads a little, I let it go.
Once he has your money, he will figure out a way to get close to $100/hour. He will fabricate fees that he never mentions when you enter a contract with him and chargEd you for parts he recycles from other jobs and claim he bought them for you.
He has yet to provide me any reciept for a light switch that was not In a package. He also asked if he could have my brand new ceiling fans, he took down.
He was so great when I called him because I had someone else not show up and I had painters coming the next day. He said his work is phenomenal and he normally charged $85/hour BUT if I pay him $500 for 8 hours IN ADVANCE, I get deal. IT IS NO DEAL!
He came 1st day and was absolutely great for 1.5hours and I gave him his check, for services in advance.
I was flustered and rushed to get him out and get more things done before I needed to get more done before painters came the next morning. HE LOVES to kill time with chattiThat's not good when you're paying by the hour!
He also wants you to give him buildings codes and access to your place without you there. This is so he can then pad his bill.. He complained about not being able to be there by himself on two counts.
He is the poster boy for bait and switch!
I wrote an incorrect hour time on my check. I called and texted him the next morning and he confirmed I have 8 hours for $500. I also have that in writing.
He also confirmed he would come at scheduled time we agreed upon for Friday, OCt. 7th at 4:30pm and I didn't contact him Again until he contacted me that Friday. He called before our scheduled time and asked if I'm back in town? I said, umm I told you I had an appointment here in Dallas that would take me to about 4pm so 4:30pm is still the time. He launched into a whole thing about the fact he is at another job and he will be late and wanted to push out the time scheduled a week in advance. I said no, not acceptable To move to another day. I have other contractors coming that need your things done and I need them done personally as well. He finally shows up 2.5 hours late. He was clearly irritated about this.
He also left for 20 minutes, to get something from his truck as I was on the phone with my fiancé the whole time and was opening the door to find him and he comes up the stairs with yet another fabricated story about being locked out. He had his phone and could text or call for the code to glass doors he so easily forgot
Had he showed up at our agreed scheduled time, he could have completed everything and our contract could have been satisfied that night. He brings out this unpackaged almond dimmer light switch and I say, what is this? He says, it matches your other outlets... umm NO it does not?! All bathroom covers outlets are white???
We exchanged words, I left him to just get the job done and had to have his mismatched switch installed to make sure the light works.
He was done at 11:03 pm and started 7:05pm,confirmed in text,)& completed 4 hours of work. I texted next day and thanked him for installing my light. He completed 5.5 hours of total work At this point.
He texts me I only have 1.5 out of 2.5 hours left!?!? I say, 7-11 is 4 hours. He responds correct but, I went shopping and you owe me $65 for supplies and 1 hour to shop.
I said no way. You already stated you do not charge for ANY trips to Home Depot.As a handyman he is there frequently and can pick up things for multiple clients on his trips. It's not my problem you procrastinated, nor do I owe a penny for a almond fixture. He is welcome to get it! He proceeded to argue with me, make up false excuses, and then tell me to just take a $25 refund for 2.5 hours of work. Of course I said NO!
He continues to change his story-change times-alter things said and I have two witnesses that directly contradict what he says. His texts, I also have photographed, and printed his texts that contradict each other. He is a liar and a scammer. DO NOT TRUST HIM OR GIVE HIM A PENNY IN ADVANCE.
If you want him for a quick job you pay AFTER he is done, 1st time great.pay in advance, he is HORRIBLE and ARGUMENTATIVE And will 100% lie
