Mel is a real gentleman. Collected my 2 lamps that required rewiring within an hour or two. They were dropped off to me in less than 24 hours. Mel explained what he had done, rewired & showed me they were working. Any further handy person work that I require. I'll be asking Mel. Thank you for your utmost professionalism, Mel.
