Oakland/Berkeley
Customer Feedback:
Earthquake Safety
“They came out, inspected the underpinnings, and found the footings were not braced for earthquake resistance. They brought out a crew, and 2 days later they had beefed up all the supports. The city inspector checked it out and said it looks great! I enjoyed using them.“

“I found him in the Good Service Guide 11 years ago, and he’s painted just about every part of the house. He’s painted every house on my court— everyone loved the job he did for me so much. He’ll go the extra mile for you. He becomes a friend, and someone you can really rely on.”

Customer Feedback:

“I’ve been using them over 12 years and I’ve never had to complain. My carpet is probably 20 years old now, and just the other day someone said, “You look like you have new carpets!” I couldn’t recommend them enough.”
