San Francisco
Customer Feedback:
Dar Greenberg
“I had never worked with a color consultant before, but Dar is truly an artist. She knows the emotional balance of colors. Sometimes we’d look at a color, discuss how I felt about it, and come up with exactly what I wanted. The work is never about her, it’s about you and what you alone want. She really cares about trying to identify just what that is. She is not about pushing her taste on someone.”

Customer Feedback:
Lorick Construction
“I was so impressed with them individually and as a group. They are flexible and intelligent, they listen, ask relevant questions, and Gigi is as smooth a multi-tasker as you are likely to meet. I may buy a “fixer upper“ just so I can hire them!”

Customer Feedback:
Thomas Mulliken Painting Contractor
“Tom did my kitchen cabinets, which turned out gorgeous, and my entertainment center to match. He also painted the whole exterior of my house. It was beyond my expectations. They are tidy, friendly, and helpful. I’ve never had such a good experience. He was worth every penny!”

Peninsula
Customer Feedback:
Wooden Window
“We own an old Oakland schoolhouse where most of the windows had been painted shut over the years. Not only did Wooden Window reverse the aging process and make them operate like new, but their workers were absolute gentlemen. They were very courteous and neat, and we felt confident about leaving them alone in our home.”
