Palm Beach Performance responded to my request immediately. Discussed what needed and didn't need to be done. Kept me informed of the work progress along the way. And even sent someone to pick me up and took me to work as well. Followed up the next day with a phone call to make sure everything was satisfactory and that I was happy. The owner himself took care of me. I'll definitely go back. - Denise S. (5 star review on Google)
