Customer Feedback:
Chasov Electric
“I’ve used other electricians before, and they couldn’t hold a candle to him. I manage commercial real estate and am also a general contractor, so I know quality work versus schlock. He’s very honest, reputable, responds quickly, has a great crew, and understands how to do very complex electrical work.“

Customer Feedback:
Affordable Housecleaning
“They are fantastic! We’ve been using them for at least 10 years, and they are top of the line. They come out once a week, and also help my wife out with parties. We trust them implicitly, and Rafael is a really sweet guy. I can leave money scattered around the house, and know it will still be there when they leave. Their word is their honor.”

Customer Feedback:
Traverso Trees
“I’ve been using Traverso Tree for 10 years, and their work is excellent. They are reliable and neat. I have them clean and prune my 25 palm trees anually, as well as remove huge, 30-year-old trees. They’ve also done work for my church in Danville, and they’ve been very happy with them as well!”

Customer Feedback:
Hargens Inc.
“They did a gutter replacement for me— came out, did a great job, and left no mess afterwards! They are very easy to work with, and give good service. Ron Smith, who manages it, is a very nice man and really follows through on what he does. They were more affordable than any other bids that I had.”
