Customer Feedback:
Pacific Roofing Company
“They replaced my mother’s entire roof in Chinatown! There was a large amount of traffic and pedestrians, and Mr. Clark handled it so well. He stayed on site for the entire job. They showed me the wood rot in the old roof before they replaced it, which I really appreciated, and saved us $600 by carefully removing and re-using some of the existing metal materials on the roof. I was so happy with them I made them all pose for a picture and sent it to them as a thank you.”

Customer Feedback:
Live Oak Decks
“I love them! They’ve done work for my mother, my uncle, and on two of my projects. I’m an architect, and they do things right. Will is a “can-do” kinda guy, and their work is always top of the line. Their workers are very respectful, and the communication between the crew and the office is great.”

Customer Feedback:
Custom Exteriors
“They are great! They replaced every door and window in my house, and the finished product was well worth it. The house is warmer in the winter now, and the difference in the cooling in summer is unbelievable. The trim looks beautiful— so good it doesn’t even need drapes!”

Customer Feedback:
Vision Builders
“Over the years, I’ve had them do both small and large projects on my home— from major structural and stone repair, to rebuilding retaining walls, doing interior drywall and painting. They are very competent, their pricing is fair, and they always finish on schedule.“
