Customer Feedback:
Retrospect Fine Furniture
“They brought my Art Deco chair back to the way it looked in the 30’s. Then they designed a spectacular custom radiator cover to look like an old-fashioned radio. Cornelius really does top-notch work, and he’s s a delight to work with. I can’t rave enough about the guy.”

Oakland/Berkeley
Customer Feedback:
Columbine Landscaping
“They re-did my whole front yard, hand built stone walls and terraces, and made a very lovely space. They put in a sprinkler system and ground cover, and made the whole yard look brand new. That was 6-8 months ago, and she’s already followed up to replace some plants and put down more ground cover. I can call her any time and she will follow up.”

Customer Feedback:
Vintage Contractors
“I was referred to them by a friend of mine to work on a residential roof deck design and build project. I am an architect, and together we came up with the design and it turned out gorgeous. I would use them again and would definitely refer them to other people.” M.B. 11-13-04.

Customer Feedback:
Northwest Termite & Pest Control
“I checked around and their prices were well within the normal range. They did a good job of inspecting my home in Oakland. I was very satisfied. One of the best things about them in that they will reinspect your property for reinfestation once a year for five years afterwards.“
