"When we decided to build our 'Dream Home' with Mercedes Home in their breathtaking Toulon Subdivision, we wanted a digital home with the ability to expand as our needs grew," said Anthony L. Hinen, homeowner in the Community of Toulon. "S&S Electric's performance, attention to detail and customer service were phenomenal!"
"Two very important aspects in home building today are time and customer satisfaction," said Pamela Malone, Regional VP, Mercedes Homes, Tampa. "S&S Electric has not only been one of our most valuable partners but has been one of the key players in obtaining our excellent customer satisfaction rating."
The Contractor Website of the Year Award recognized contractor companies that have developed outstanding company websites that keep customers, employees and the public informed and up-to-date on company services, press, safety and events. The Awards Committee reviewed the design/layout of the website, content, links, user friendliness, and range of audience.
