Customer Feedback:
Excelsior Roofing Co
“I’ve used Excelsior on two different occasions— to refurbish a roof and to do some repair work around the edges. They are professional, arrive on time, and are polite and clean. They have a lot of experience. I’m very happy with their work.”

Customer Feedback:
Hi-Tech Hardwood Floors
“They sanded and re-stained my hardwood floors, and they did a great job. I have used a lot of contractors, and I would put them at the very, very top of the list— by far the best. The job was done perfectly, and people rave about my floors.”

“Mel? I love the man to death! He does a great job, he’s clean, on time, and fabulous. He’s painted the whole outside and inside of my house, and the stair railing. He’s on the top of my list! People actually stop by my house and ask me about the colors and who painted my house.”
