Customer Feedback:
Grace Santana Plumbing
“She has worked for us for 3 years, maybe more. She’s fixed practically everything. She is honest, and takes real pride in her work. I really trust her. She’s got the zen of plumbing down, is very caring, and has always helped me when I’ve had a plumbing emergency.”

Customer Feedback:
Aarvaks Heating & Air Conditioning
“As a single woman, I don’t know much about heating and air conditioning. It’s not really my forte. I found Jeff to be incredibly helpful, patient, reasonable and knowledgeable. You can’t say that about too many contractors.”

Customer Feedback:
American Chimney Services
“I am an interior designer, and it is such a pleasure to work with a company offering such efficiency and consideration. Jose and his assistant did a beautiful job installing our fireplace, and the painting of the surround looks fantastic. They left everything in such a clean condition! We will be enjoying the warmth of our home for many years to come.”
