San Francisco
Customer Feedback:
The Window Specialist
“We’re thrilled with our new windows—and we’re saving a fortune on energy bills. The wind used to whistle right through the old ones. The new windows have an awesome locking system that’s really easy to use, and they look beautiful. If that’s not enough, they were about a third of the price we were quoted elsewhere.”

Customer Feedback:
Norcal Construction
“I own a grocery store in Oakland that needed repairs after a fire. My adjuster suggested Norcal, and I was really satisfied with them. They suggested what should be done, did it, and made sure it met inspection. They are reliable, and I will be using them again.”

Contra Costa County
Customer Feedback:
Vintage Contractors
“They did some turf in one section of my yard, and a half-basketball court. I was out there everyday while they were working, as this project was my baby. I am not an easy person to work with, but they listened to all of my suggestions, and made sure I was happy. I would give them your highest mark. Complete professionals.” M.C. 11-19-04.

Hargens Inc.
“They replaced my rain gutters and did a great job. There were a few snags, and they took care of them right away! I would definitely hire them again.”
