Jason J - Morris Plains
"I had a problem with my home water filter and as a result, I was unable to turn back on my water while trying to replace the filter. It was late in the day and I was giving up hope that someone could come with little notice that evening. Jimmy at Sidekick was great and came over within an hour to fix my problem. He quickly assessed the problem and within 15 minutes, had me up and running again. Highly recommend and will be sure to call him again for future needs."
