Customer Feedback:
Lorick Construction
“I was so impressed with them individually and as a group. They are flexible and intelligent, they listen, ask relevant questions, and Gigi is as smooth a multi-tasker as you are likely to meet. I may buy a “fixer upper“ just so I can hire them!”

Contra Costa County
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.”

Peninsula
Customer Feedback:
Hargens Inc.
“They did a gutter replacement for me— came out, did a great job, and left no mess afterwards! They are very easy to work with, and give good service. Ron Smith, who manages it, is a very nice man and really follows through on what he does. They were more affordable than any other bids that I had.”
