Customer Feedback:
Cowden Automotive
“They have taken care of my cars for 3 years. I have older cars (all 75,000+ miles) , so I need a good mechanic. I trust them completely, and I know they won’t rip me off. They’re friendly and wonderful, and their shop is spotlessly clean.”

Customer Feedback:
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.”

Customer Feedback:
The Upholstery Shop
“I’m an interior designer and have had only excellent experience with them. They’ve done 30 or 40 pieces for my clients, and I’ve never had a problem. They’re the experts- I tell them what I’m looking for and they make it work.”

Customer Feedback:

“Over the years, I’ve had them do both small and large projects on my home— from major structural and stone repair, to rebuilding retaining walls, doing interior drywall and painting. They are very competent, their pricing is fair, and they always finish on schedule.“
