Customer Feedback:
Excelsior Roofing Co
“I’ve used Excelsior on two different occasions— to refurbish a roof and to do some repair work around the edges. They are professional, arrive on time, and are polite and clean. They have a lot of experience. I’m very happy with their work.”

Customer Feedback:
The Floor Show
“They re-did our floors, and they did a phenomenal job! My cousin, who is an architect, had them do his wood floors in Berkeley, and he was pleased with their work as well. We’ve used them since then, and they’re coming out soon to do a new project for us.”

Contra Costa County
Customer Feedback:
The Carpet Doctor
“I’ve worked with him for several years. His pricing is excellent. I really like that he has his own little machine that comes into the house— it’s not one of those long hoses that goes out to a truck. I’ve used other carpet cleaners before, but I highly recommend Don.”

Customer Feedback:
KDG Refacing
“They gave us a spectacular living room with a huge entertainment center, cabinets, and a bar with a wine fridge. Our friends come in here and their mouths just fall open. They have wonderful ideas, are honest, and are fine people. I feel like I’m living in a new house!”
