Customer Feedback:
Commercial and Residential Electric
“He fixed all kinds of things for me, and I don’t know how he did it all, but he did. He is very competent, always prompt, and he works alone so there are no big crews taking over your home. We were so happy with him. I would definitely recommend him, and my recommendation is unequivocal.”

Customer Feedback:
Dinwoodie Landscapes
“Sally is much more than a ‘gardener’ — she is a horticulturist with an excellent crew. She knows what will thrive when and where. She always responds right away. We’re very fussy—we wouldn’t use her if she didn’t do excellent work.”

Customer Feedback:
Live Oak Structural
“I had about $60,000 in water damage on my home, and I hate doing home repair. Live Oak were as unobtrusive as possible, and I never had to worry about a thing! They were so polite. I would definitely recommend them.”

Peninsula
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.“
