Comments
This section includes comments good and bad on people
who have their names/services listed here. Feedback is
the only way to keep people honest or to point out
people who are particularly deserving. Keep in mind,
everyone can have a bad day.
Doors, Windows & More!
Just like the name says! Bruce Kischler did a fantastic job replacing an exterior door and two windows at our place. All three get heavy exposure from sun, wind and rain and as a result we have had a problem with leaking over the years. Bruce helped us pick the right material for our situation while keep costs in mind. Then he made an extra effort to make the installation as weather tight as humanly possible. I also appreciated the care he took just setting up and breaking down when he was finished. He was extra careful making sure not to scratch my stenciled walls, laid down drop cloths to protect our wood floors and made sure he had picked up all the trash when he was finished. He also returned my calls and showed up when he said he would. A simple thing too many contractor fail to do.
If we ever need to have any other windows or doors replace we will definitely be calling Bruce!!
Knox Roofing
These guys were great. It's that simple. They
were on time, did a good job, cleanup up, were nice,
and the price was very reasonable. Getting a new roof
is an expensive and somewhat scary experience. I wouldn't
hesitate to recommend them.
Maggie's Dog Grooming
It's hard to imagine a better value than Maggie provides.
She picks up your dog, makes them beautiful, and drops them off
when she's done. Our dog has a very difficult coat and Maggie
does an excellent job on it. Highly recommended.
Rich's Hauling and Clearing
That said, I have some brush and weed clearing/hauling to be
done on the hillside behind my house and called Rich of
Rich's Hauling because he was recommended there.
He was supposed to be here this morning, said he would bring
1-2 guys w/ him, but... no show. I planned my day around
this because it's when he said he had time, and am really
annoyed and frustrated.
I left a voice message (after getting through on his busy
line), sent an e-mail (in case the busy was that he was
on-line... he has a website), and paged him. Nothing.
He sounded super on the phone, not like a flake, and I'm
trying to reserve judgement before asking you, Todd, to
balance the recommendation on your page with my negative
experience.
The first time we hired Rich he did a very good job.
The second time he canceled on us several times and
did an OK job.
Seastrom Construction
We've only had Craig work on one job so far, but he
did a very good job on our painting, dry wall, and
floor repair project. He was on time, cleaned up,
and the work he did was good. We plan on working with him
again on further projects.
Superior Pump Company
What a great experience! The last thing you want is to have trouble with your water system. But
living in the mountains, pretty much everyone has to deal with it at some point. Part break or wear out & then... poof... nothing when you turn on the tap! :( I always wonder how people managed before running water & indoor plumbing!!
Luckily our problem wasn't quite that severe this time, but Superior Pump was able to come out and fix our problem the next day. We even got a call from their office when they were running a little late. The techncian, Jason, was just great! He was able to quickly determine the problem answered all my questions and had the parts to make the repair on the spot! They even worked with our Home Warranty Company (Old Republic)!
Like I said, a great customer experience. Highly Recommended!!
Maria Mata's House Cleaning
We've been having her clean our house for years, and have recommended to our friends up here in the mountains who also think she does excellent work, is reliable, trustworthy and reasonably priced.
Cecil Serna's Yard Work
Cecil is amazing. He does the most difficult hedge trimming, pulling up of scotch broom, hauling of yard waste et al in no time, does an excellent job and is very reasonable in terms of price. Also just a sweet, hard-working family man who obviously takes pride in his work, business and family.
Larry Keast Painting
We did a lot of research and checking of references before choosing Larry and he lived up to his great reputation. He's been a pro at painting/staining our house (2 x over the last 10+ years), which isn't easy as it gets a lot of mildew on the clear redwood siding after letting it go for too long. He worked with us as we went back-forth on choosing the right color (very flexible and didn't charge us for the extra work on his/crew's part), got all the mildew off using latest-greatest techniques, was quick/efficient/clean, etc. And, most of all, the results always turn out great, for years. I highly recommend him.
