Customer Feedback:
Classic Shades Painting
“I’ve used them twice now, and they are very professional and do a good job. They showed me a lot of color samples when they were doing my fence, which I really appreciated. Unlike most contractors, they follow-up to make sure you’re happy.”

Customer Feedback:
Brilliant Buildings
“My chimney sunk and took parts of the floor with it! They avoided having to remove the chimney by bringing out a pressure grouter and leveling the house. They took a lot of time to meet my needs, were very professional, and there was not one nail left behind.”

Contra Costa County
Customer Feedback:
Live Oak Decks
“I was so impressed with their knowledge about decks and foundations. They caught something that the original designer of the house missed, and added some support beams under our deck that serve as part of the foundation. They were responsive, and I was very happy with them.”
