Customer Feedback:
Birkmyer Landscapes
“I have been working with Birkmeyer Landscaping for the last 7 or 8 years, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. They are the best landscaping people that I have worked with. They are accommodating, on time, and their work is always the best. Phil Birkmeyer is just one of the best businessmen that I have ever worked with. We have established a warm friendship as a result of the satisfaction that my wife and I have had with his work. I give him a triple A rating and hope that my reference gets him the work that he deserves.”

Classic Shades Painting
“I got them out of The Good Service Guide, and they did my front room, living room, dining room, and hall. They were on time, neat, professional, and listened to what I had to say. They are good representatives of your book!”

Contra Costa County
Customer Feedback:
Bonny Weil General Contractor
“The first thing I want to say is that Bonny came in on time and under budget, which is pretty much unheard of! The next thing is that she really listened to us. I never felt that she was imposing her vision on us, but she showed us different options, some of which we used. The whole kitchen remodel went very well, she has great workers who left our home spotless every day. We are very pleased.”

“Ian was great to work with, and his crew came in and did everything on time. They were professional and I was impressed that they were so efficient. They were on budget, and they only bill you for the work that is actually done. We were very happy with them!”
