Customer Feedback:
Larry Lynch & The Mob
“They were absolutely fabulous. I hired them for a corporate event at the Blackhawk Automotive Museum last December, and everybody loved them! People stayed on the dance floor to the very end. It was a pleasure working with Larry and the band. Their service and professionalism were second to none. I still get rave reviews for that event!”

Customer Feedback:
Peter’s Auto Repair
“If only he could work on my American car, we would never have to go anywhere else. He is honest and easy to understand. He’s got a great sense of humor, and he doesn’t expect car owners to be mechanics. I always have a good experience.”

Customer Feedback:
McHale Insulation
“They insulated the entire East and West walls of our home. They were on time, neat, and their prices were fair. They put so many holes in the wall, and now that the job is done you can’t even tell where they were!“

Peninsula
Customer Feedback:
Crystal Springs Painting Company
“Oh, they were marvelous! I had them come out to do some extensive repair on water damage. They put the perfect finishing touch on the repair job— painting the walls and part of the stairwell. They arrived on time and cleaned up like I’ve never seen! I’ve never had anybody do a better job— everything was so professional. I’ve had several home improvement jobs done over the years, and nobody’s matched their quality!”
