Customer Feedback:
Painting USA
“This is the best company I’ve ever used! I’ve had my Victorian house painted 4 times over the years, and this was by far the best job. Phillip went well beyond the call of duty. He was often out there working with his crew! I am so pleased.“

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.”

Traverso Trees
“John was very open, and gave us a good bid on our big oak tree. His workers went out of their way for me, and I bought them lunch. They’re all just good guys. Good work, and low bids— that’s what makes the world go ‘round!”

Customer Feedback:
Ross M. Stangeland DDS
“I grind my teeth, and my teeth were deteriorating— so Dr. Stangeland had to cap every single tooth in my mouth. It was a huge job, but the quality of his work is absolutely superb. I now get compliments on my teeth all the time! Everyone in his office is pleasant, and fun to be around. They made a huge ordeal very easy.”
