Customer Feedback:
Lightstream Window Cleaning
“I’d give Andy my highest recommendation. He has cleaned the windows in our home for about five years. We have floor-to-ceiling windows, with many small, individual panes that are difficult to clean. He also cleans our gutters. He’s thorough, and always pleasant.”

Contra Costa County
Customer Feedback:
Earthquake Safety
“I had a very good experience with them. We wanted someone to bolt our house down, and other companies said they would have to open the walls and do all of this work, but Earthquake Safety were able to do it without all of that trouble. They were in and out really quickly and there were no problems. But if we have an earthquake and the house falls down, I’ll call you back!“

Franz Termite Control
“I think Franz really is the best. Michael really attends to the needs of his clients. I’m a realtor with Coldwell Banker in Palo Alto, and I’ve used Franz Termite for all kinds of pest control and structural work for 20 years.”
