San Francisco
Customer Feedback:
ABB Heating Service
“They were extremely good— fast, neat, and quick. They gave me an estimate, and when they didn’t have to do all of the work they expected, they took the price down. His workers did not play radios as most of them do, which was a real asset. They were punctual, they did what they said they would do, and I think they did a really nice job. They will be coming back soon to clean some other ducts for me.”

Jacobs Spring Fresh Cleaning
“He’s very personable, and serious about doing a good job. We use him about twice a year. He did a fantastic job on a couch that hadn’t been cleaned for years. It came out looking great.”

Contra Costa County
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.“

Customer Feedback:
Birkmyer Landscapes
“We went with Phil because he was in The Good Service Guide, and also our perception that he could bring what we really wanted into our backyard, and within our budget. The choice of plants was completely his, and he did a super job. We’ve very pleased and we would recommend him to anybody.”
