Customer Feedback:
De Martini/Arnott Painting Company
“They were very helpful in helping me choose the colors, which was something I wasn’t expecting. They also did a faux marble finish on our fireplace— we get compliments on that every time anybody sees it. I can’t recommend them highly enough!”

“Dean really went the extra mile when he painted my beautiful Julia Morgan home in Berkeley. He did excellent work, and he treated me and my home with respect. Like all the people I have used in The Good Service Guide, he does quality work. I’m glad you’re including him.”

Customer Feedback:
TLC/Goldcrest Homes, Inc.
“I’ve used the Guide before, and think that Jim should definitely be listed. He remodeled my kitchen for me, and replaced a wall which had dry rot. He’s reasonably priced, and does high quality work. His workers are very pleasant.”

Customer Feedback:
The Window Specialist
“I was very happy with their service, and I definitely recommend them. We recently had windows installed, and although it takes a year or two to see if the quality is still there, so far they are doing great! You can use me as a reference with no hesitation.”
