Customer Feedback:
Pat Ryan Moving
“Pat and his guys showed up right on time with their friendly hellos and strong backs. They got right to work and moved me out of the loft and into my apartment in the blink of an eye. They were very careful and left no trace of the move on the walls. They charge a fair flat rate! Highly recommend.”

Customer Feedback:
Brende & Lamb Tree & Shrub Care
“Brende & Lamb is the only arborist I have ever called back. Other services always leave a mess, or don’t show up when they say they will. B&L are so knowledgeble, and have helped me with a number of projects. They are such great people to work with.”

Customer Feedback:
Brecht Construction
“I felt comfortable and safe putting my kitchen remodel in the hands of Brecht Construction. The job was a total tear-out and transformation into a gorgeous modern kitchen. The sky lights bring so much natural light into a room that was always so dark.”

Customer Feedback:
J & J Owens Electric, Inc.
“They’re awesome— first class all the way. They solved a couple of problems that our previous electrical contractor had created, and did a flawless job. They were prompt, neat, did everything by the book, and at the price they quoted. They went above and beyond my expectations. I recommend them big time.”
