Customer Feedback:
Spark Construction
“They restored a Victorian facade on my house back to the original facade from 1905. They were very competent and reliable. All of the carpenters did a wonderful job, and anything I didn’t like or wanted to change, they responded right away.“

Customer Feedback:
Live Oak Structural
“We were very, very pleased with Live Oak. They replaced some rotted joists and leaking air vents for us. They were ahead of schedule, prompt in returning phone calls and coming out, and just really good to work with.”

Contra Costa County
Customer Feedback:
Larry Lynch & The Mob
“They created just the perfect environment for our daughter’s wedding in Burlingame. I have never been to an event where everybody from the children to the old folks were up on their feet and dancing. The music was superb, and the singing terrific. The sound was comfortable when appropriate, and muted when it made sense. We couldn’t have asked for more.”

Excellent Window Cleaning
“We were very, very pleased with them. They cleaned the screens and windowsills, and basically bent over backwards to do a good job. Their pricing was fair as well. We would definitely recommend them to anyone.”
