It's a rarity to have this in this neighborhood (Chinatown) which makes parking for the service crew challenging. This is why I try to make early appointments, preferably before noon, knowing they and their staff are East Bay based. My window for a Monday morning was between 9 am and 11 am. I was just calling their office around 10:40 am to check on the guy's status when I got a call waiting flashing. The technician told me that he was in front of the building so I ended my call with their office person and told him that I will open the door in a couple minutes as I was on the 3rd floor. It was the first time for this tech on working so I walked him floor by floor in checking the contacts, the panel response, and other potential issues with the elevator. The building is four stories high plus there is a basement station for the elevator. He was very thorough and did not find any issues. All told, he was done in a little over twenty minutes. Thanks to Neal this time and the other numerous times to Anthony and other service guys who have helped us here. Always nice to know who to call for this and possible repairs... knock wood on the latter.

From the very beginning, Austin has stood out as one of the most communicative, responsive, and reliable professionals I've worked with. He handles the maintenance of our two elevators here at Menlo Towers with a level of professionalism and attention to detail that gives us full confidence our equipment is always in excellent hands. Whenever a question or concern comes up, Austin is quick to respond, clear in his explanations, and proactive about finding solutions. That type of consistent, dependable service is invaluable to us as a community. Over the course of my management career, I've worked with several elevator service providers, and I can honestly say STAR Elevator, with Austin as our lead technician, has been the best by far. The expertise, reliability, and genuine customer care we've experienced are unmatched. Please extend our thanks to Austin and to the entire STAR Elevator team for delivering such exceptional service. We truly appreciate the partnership and look forward to working together for years to come.

Their technicians were very mindful of keeping the clutter to a minimum and cleaned up after each days work.

We love the elevator and it continues to work well. Paul has retired since the elevator was installed and the business is now run by his lead technician. They have several more Cambridge elevators installed in the area since ours. I expect they will be even better at both estimating and installing them now. SB

Fast forward to Jose showing up literally the SAME DAY I called when others that said WEEKS! We talked, he LISTENED (big thing to me) and did an estimate. I didn't even bother to get other estimates at this point because he was the ONLY one to show any concern about my house. The work was done in a timely fashion with no upselling at any point and when tiles were found to be cracked (previously undetected) he simply used the spares I had without trying to make a buck selling me new ones! Absolutely great service! Now, for the best part. Almost a year later I have the problems return. Jose comes back out, inspects and takes care of it all! Mind you, it was raining off & on and things are getting wet and he comes out the same day and does a temp repair to stop any damage. Thankfully the rain stopped. His schedule was jammed he told me and to expect them in a few days. But then they show up the next day and hammer it all out!! NOW THAT IS SERVICE. Don't hesitate, call Roofing Craftsmen.

After inspecting the roof, Jose honestly explained that I didn't need a new roof yet, saving me from an unnecessary expense and earning my trust. About 2.5 years laster, I decided I was ready for a new roof, I returned to Jose. He worked with me on pricing, communicated clearly, and provided excellent customer service throughout the entire process. Jose and his crew completed the roof on schedule, worked professionally, cleaned up thoroughly, and did an excellent job. I'm very happy with the results and expect the new roof to last for many years. Jose's honesty and integrity truly set him apart. I highly recommend Roofing Craftsman to anyone looking for quality work and a contractor they can trust. Five stars!

My friend does not live at the installation site and has limited mobility due to medical conditions, so he couldn't personally verify the quality of the work. The company knows this and yet hasn't taken the necessary steps to ensure the elevator is in working order. The elevator has multiple issues: from door interlocks that don't secure properly to a frustrating "sleep" mode that makes the elevator unresponsive. What's worse, the company has refused to honor any form of warranty to rectify these issues. While I understand that no business is perfect, the inability to deliver on a basic service after charging such a high amount is unacceptable.

In 2015 my husband and I began construction on a new-build farmhouse in the Orinda Country Club…read morearea and Steve Strand took over the construction of our home at a point where we were completing the dry wall. Despite being a brand new build, it was effectively a back-to-studs re-model when Steve came on-board. Our home is highly-custom utilizing high-end fixtures and fittings which can sometimes be finickity to install but Steve's experienced network of subs didn't get phased. The walls downstairs are custom milled poplar siding which were sawn and installed board-by-board and upstairs we have board and batten siding throughout demanding quality carpentry work. There was a moment shortly after Steve came on-board which I have shared with friends that, for me, captures how Steve approaches his work. I came up to the site a few days after Steve came on-board and he had purchased a number of Ipe decking boards for our porch. Steve was showing me these Ipe boards and explaining why he had chosen each one in terms of the vibrancy and complexity of each board and while trying to have a conversation about these boards, I was welling up because I knew then that we had finally found a contractor who cared as much as we did about the details of our home; this was on the tail of parting ways with a very challenging contractor. Steve's attention to detail never, ever, faltered regardless of what that meant to the timeline of the project. His focus on delivering an amazing outcome combined with his talent and experience to achieve that goal is the reason why he is such a successful custom home builder. As another example, the stovetop range hood took days to get perfectly right involving multiple attempts up and down a ladder to get the fit perfect. Steve could have fudged it and moved on but that's simply not his approach and I'm grateful for that everyday. There are so many areas in my home which have been elevated by Steve's attention to detail. Lastly, Steve and his superbly talented carpenter, Carlos, are professional and respectful to work with. Contractors who successfully work with clients on a custom home build need to be patient, flexible, creative and have a business model that allows them to focus on delivering an amazing outcome. Other builders might focus on speed and budget which is ideal for spec homes but not custom homes. I can't recommend Steve Strand highly enough. If you are fortunate enough to have the opportunity to work with him, you will be in the very best hands. Steve completed our home in December 2016 and worked so hard to finish the house so that we could be in for Christmas. We're indebted to Steve for coming on-board and creating such a beautiful home for our family.
