“I have come here as a maintenance technician countless times. NOT ONCE did these guys fail to impress me with their knowledge. They are across town for me and I don’t complain due to their unmatched service. I can bring in a busted chewed up cartridge or part and within 10 seconds the guys are like “ yup we have one right over here” and will bring me the exact match from what I had. Simply top tier. -SNS management ”

“The cartridge in my kitchen sink broke last week so I've been without that sink for a whole week. I ordered a replacement from Noel's, which I could not find anywhere else and it worked perfectly. Thank you! You saved me! ”
