Automatic Garage Door Corp.
“The installer was very thorough and went about his work quietly and diligently. He went over every little screw and bolt. He was pleasant and easy to work with. I would definitely recommend them!“

Customer Feedback:
Brende & Lamb Tree & Shrub Care
“I’ve been using Brende & Lamb for 10 years. I have some trees that are very hard to control, and they care for them perfectly. I run a bed and breakfast, so it is important to me that they come when we do not have guests. I wouldn’t go anywhere else!”

Peninsula
Customer Feedback:
Larry Lynch & The Mob
“Weddings are expensive–the cake, the catering, the site, and then the band. But the reception is what people remember, and the music is the focal point. Larry and his band didn’t disappoint. From letting me sing amateur love songs, to coordinating the cake-cutting and the toasts, Larry and his musicians were truly professional and a lot of fun. It’s obvious they really love their work!”
