Customer Feedback:
The Home Doctors
“My friend discovered them, and I’ve been using them now for about 3 years. They show up on time, are very cooperative, responsive, and do exactly what I want. They fill the gap between the larger jobs and the handyman jobs. They’re the ones you want!”

Customer Feedback:
Live Oak Decks
“I was so impressed with their knowledge about decks and foundations. They caught something that the original designer of the house missed, and added some support beams under our deck that serve as part of the foundation. They were responsive, and I was very happy with them.”

Contra Costa County
Customer Feedback:
Earthquake Safety
“I had a very good experience with them. We wanted someone to bolt our house down, and other companies said they would have to open the walls and do all of this work, but Earthquake Safety were able to do it without all of that trouble. They were in and out really quickly and there were no problems. But if we have an earthquake and the house falls down, I’ll call you back!“

Customer Feedback:
Vision Builders
“We consider ourselves fortunate to have found Helmo and his team. They’ve added lots of character to our home— coffered ceilings, crown moldings, archways and a beautiful staircase. We were living in the house the entire time, and they were always courteous. It was a pleasure.“
