Customer Feedback:
Michael Mullin Architect, Ltd
“I can say Michael was by far the best part of my remodel process. There were problems with everybody involved, except for Michael. He rode through the whole project— he was the one person I could always count on. I have nothing but the highest accolades for Michael. I’d be thrilled to be able to work with him again.”

Customer Feedback:
The Window Specialist
“These windows make a huge difference. Recently it was raining real hard outside, and we didn’t even know! We were hesitant because we had wood windows, but the new windows look like they’re part of the original house. They’re really lovely.”

Customer Feedback:
Arachne’s Thimble
“I used to work at Kaiser in Walnut Creek. I now live in Berkeley but still take things to Arachne’s Thimble because I’ve never found anywhere better. I only have positive things to say. They’ve done things for me in a rish when I needed them, and I’ve never had any mishaps.”

Peninsula
Customer Feedback:
Hargens Inc.
“I recommend them very highly. They started out working on our rain gutters when we had a new roof installed, and then I found out that they do heating as well! They do quality work, and they meet all of their appointments (which is a rarity in this day and age!). They respected my time and my family, and I really appreciate that. Unbelievably nice, accountable, and they don’t make any false promises. If this is how they always conduct business, they are going to be around for a very long time. Integrity and honesty go a long way.”
