San Francisco
Customer Feedback:
Strokes Fine Painting
“I had never worked with a color consultant before, but Dar is truly an artist. She knows the emotional balance of colors. Sometimes we’d look at a color, discuss how I felt about it, and come up exactly what I wanted. The work is never about her, it’s about you and what you alone want. She really cares about trying to identify just what that is. She is not about pushing her taste on someone.”

Customer Feedback:
Daryl Rush Builders
“The work they did on our 100 year old house so enhanced the look that a year later we are still marveling! They did a sun room addition, altered two bedrooms and did an earthquake retrofit. Daryl’s workers were quiet, clean, and very easy to have in the house.”

Fine Line Renovations
“They finished our front porch and our backyard deck from top to bottom. I thought that the price was exceptionally reasonable for the amount of work that had to be done. Very honest and straight forward. Our deck is now beautiful!”

Peninsula
Customer Feedback:
ABC Windows
“They did a wonderful job— very professional. What I liked is that ABC made the windows themselves, and that they are family-owned. They don’t just treat you like another number; they take an interest in you as a person. Their customer service was excellent, and they had the best price of the three companies I checked with.“
