Customer Feedback:
Pat Ryan Moving
“These guys are great. I used them for a SF to Foster City move. They showed up on time, busted their rear ends lugging all my stuff down three flights, got it all there, no damage and at estimated time / cost. I was happy, happy, happy.”

Customer Feedback:
Sentry Alert, Inc.
“As an architect and contractor I recommend homeowners use Sentry Alert. They spend time making people feel comfortable with the system. They just finished an installation at one of my client’s homes and worked all weekend to complete the job so that the house would not be left vulnerable.”

Customer Feedback:
Live Oak Structural
“They did some seismic retrofitting on my home, and they were outstanding. Being a woman dealing with contractors can sometimes be difficult. Live Oak listened, answered every question I had, and did excellent work. They were responsive, clean, patient, and professional. I have very high standards, and I really trust Live Oak.”

Customer Feedback:
Handyman Connection
“They’ve done all kinds of things for me, for quite some time now. The last thing they did was install a ceiling fan in my home. I enjoy their prompt service, the people they send out are very polite, and I’ve just been very happy with them.”
