San Francisco
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!”

Westco Roofing
“WestCo recently re-roofed 17 apartments for me. They were very careful to protect the landscaping, and all my tenants’ cars. They’re real professionals, and very accommodating.”

Customer Feedback:
Brende & Lamb Tree & Shrub Care
“They do great work on my trees— trimming, thinning, and pruning. Their work is professional and clean. They spend a lot of time on customer service, and that’s hard to find these days. I would only go back to Brende & Lamb.”

Customer Feedback:
Birkmyer Landscapes
“I have been working with Birkmeyer Landscaping for the last 7 or 8 years, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. They are the best landscaping people that I have worked with. They are accommodating, on time, and their work is always the best. Phil Birkmeyer is just one of the best businessmen that I have ever worked with. We have established a warm friendship as a result of the satisfaction that my wife and I have had with his work. I give him a triple A rating and hope that my reference gets him the work that he deserves.”
