Customer Feedback:
Wooden Window
“We own an old Oakland schoolhouse where most of the windows had been painted shut over the years. Not only did Wooden Window reverse the aging process and make them operate like new, but their workers were absolute gentlemen. They were very courteous and neat, and we felt confident about leaving them alone in our home.”

Customer Feedback:
Arachne’s Thimble
“I’ve been going to Dama since she opened. She’s done all kinds of alterations for me— from changing clothing sizes, to hems, to everything else— and she’s much better than the average seamstress. Her service is excellent!”

Customer Feedback:
Blinds & Designs
“I like them enormously! They did shutters for me, and I really like the way they turned out. They were efficient and got everything done in a timely manner, and never tried to up-sell me. They also did some work for my daughter, which turned out great as well.”
