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.”

Customer Feedback:
General Roofing Company
“I got them out of the Good Service Guide. They do outstanding work. They were the only company to address the specifics of the extra work we wanted done in the bid. They cleaned up every day, the crews were here early, stayed late, and had the work done in 2 days.”

Customer Feedback:
Mr. Handyman
“They found the leak in my bathroom and fixed it the first time. They had to replace the bathroom floor and some of my bathtub plumbing, and they did a good job. They were always punctual. I would definitely use them again.”

Peninsula
Customer Feedback:
Cal-Pac Roofing
“These people are gold. You just can’t find people like this anymore. I think I’ve referred five or six customers to them since they completed my job. I had a small problem a year later, and they took care of it immediately. The roof is beautiful, and the product is awesome. They put in two sky tunnels, too. Those really are terrific. I put one in the central hallway, and it just opened up the whole house. At night, even the moonlight lights up the house.”
