San Francisco
Customer Feedback:
Larry Lynch & The Mob
“Weddings are expensive–the cake, the catering, the site, and then the band. But the reception is what people remember, and the music is the focal point. Larry and his band didn’t disappoint. From letting me sing amateur love songs, to coordinating the cake-cutting and the toasts, Larry and his musicians were truly professional and a lot of fun. It’s obvious they really love their work!”

Customer Feedback:
Aurora Painting & Decorating
“They did a fantastic job! Dean is an artist, and it shows in his work. You can trust his judgment in color and finishes. But he and his crew also do exactly what they said they will do, and in the time that they say. He’s very meticulous. My neighbor also used him after seeing his work at my house in Richmond.”

“I’ve worked with Peter for about 9 years, after finding him in your book! Our transformer blew, and our lawn guy cut our wiring! Peter redid all that. They are reliable, and immaculately clean.”

Customer Feedback:
Ernesto Moran
“He is a wonderful hair stylist, a perfectionist. I get compliments all the time. I’m pretty picky about my hair, and I’ve been going to him for several years. I’m really happy with his work – he takes a lot of time, and does a really good job.”
