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.”

Customer Feedback:
Draperies By Susan, Inc.
“I’ve been using Draperies by Susan for nearly 20 years now. Their quality of work is excellent (and I am very picky!). They have so much patience, and are never pushy. They always get things done in a timely manner. I would definitely recommend them to anyone.”

Customer Feedback:
ABC Windows
“They’re cost-effective, efficient, and fast. I got 44 windows from them for my home. I was in Hawaii for most of the time they were working on my house, and they took care of everything for me. I interviewed four other companies, and they seemed to be the best. Their workers are very clean and very skilled. The double-paned windows they installed really keep the noise down, the warmth in, and the utlities bills down.“
