San Francisco
Customer Feedback:
Wooden Window
“We own an old Oakland schoolhouse where most of the windows had been painted shut over the years. Not only did Wooden Window reverse the aging process and make them operate like new, but their workers were absolute gentlemen. They were very courteous and neat, and we felt confident about leaving them alone in our home.”

Customer Feedback:
Chris Fortner Construction
“Chris replaced our second story deck, our ground level deck, and put in a new door leading out to the backyard. Everything was done well, up to code, and we had no problems. Chris and his crew are helpful and informative, really nice and very professional. We would not hesitate to use them again.”

Contra Costa County
Customer Feedback:
McHale Insulation
“I’ve lived in the East Bay all my life and I never realized that insulation could make such a difference. My home was built in the 30s, and I just thought you had to have the heat on all winter. The whole house feels more substancial now, and the walls muffle sound.“
