Customer Feedback:
David Zaidman Painting
“I am real estate broker, and I’ve been using him almost exclusively. His prices are mid-range, he’s insured, bonded, and very good on scheduling. He doesn’t mind coming back to fix anything if there are any probelms. He’s cheerful and friendly. I’ve also recommended him to all of my clients.”

Peninsula
Customer Feedback:
Cal-Pac Roofing
“These people are gold. You just can’t find people like this anymore. I think I’ve referred five or six customers to them since they completed my job. I had a small problem a year later, and they took care of it immediately. The roof is beautiful, and the product is awesome. They put in two sky tunnels, too. Those really are terrific. I put one in the central hallway, and it just opened up the whole house. At night, even the moonlight lights up the house.”
