Default any one had a transmission rebuilt by craigslist shop in New caney/ Porter?

There is a shop that advertises on craigslist thats located in NewCaney/porter and I was wondering if anyone on here has used them to rebuild a 4l60e. If so what was the experience?

If it is off porter lane, I saw a guy go from the corner store to that shade teas lookin place. Looked like a ex convicted felon with his jail house tat work. I do not have a problem judging a book by its cover in this case.

As far as I know there are not any good transmission shops in that area. Used to be a couple of people but since I grew up out there I can say there are a lot of shady individuals
