It's a small imported ceramics shop, similar to something you might find in Chinatown. Second, and the loss of the one star - it's absolutely freezing inside. Shopping was uncomfortably cold and did not invite me to spend more time in the store in winter, but they did have quite a few adorable cups, plates, and mugs, although I would say most of what they carry doesn't fit any specific theme. Overall, I think attached to a tea shop I could see returning, but I don't think it quite works as it is.

I recently bought my entire kitchen appliance package from Lisa. I gave her my measurements, and she not only helped me maximize every inch of space, but also pointed me toward the features that made the most sense for how I actually use my kitchen. Her product knowledge is deep, her advice is honest, and the way she explains things makes you feel like you've already read thousands of user reviews. She truly looks out for the customer. Lisa is an absolute gem, and frankly, I'm surprised she isn't supporting a CEO of a major company with the level of professionalism, intelligence, and care she brings. Home Depot is incredibly lucky to have her.

We recently completed a whole kitchen remodel using Bay Area Cabinet Supply for our cabinets. I…read moreoriginally planned to reface our old cabinets or do IKEA cabinets with updated fronts from companies like Semihandmade, but ultimately found Bay Area Cabinet Supply to make more sense in terms of pricing, quality and time investment during the planning and design process. I walked through Bay Area Cab's Dublin showroom a few times to confirm they have cabinet styles and colors I liked, and the employees were very accommodating in letting me check out cabinet door samples to see in my actual kitchen. I'm so glad I did that, because the color we originally wanted ended up looking dingy in our northern facing kitchen. We went with their Icy Avalanche color, which is a cool toned grey, and have never loved anything more! The design and estimate process was simple and likely less time consuming than even wading through the IKEA kitchen designer yourself. Chrissy was patient, professional and very knowledgeable and made sure every detail was handled to perfection. She even hopped on the phone with our contractor a couple times to make sure every measurement was exactly correct. But her excellent customer service really came into play after our cabinets were delivered and we discovered an issue--due to a slant in our kitchen floors that weren't accounted for in our original measurements, our crown molding wouldn't fit! She and her sister, who heads their other branch, redesigned and supplied a new molding quickly so that our remodel wouldn't be too behind schedule. And if that wasn't enough, when my contractor mis-installed a drawer, Chrissy replaced the broken pieces for me immediately. For just the customer service level alone, I'm so glad I went with Bay Area Cabs. There are already so many small things that can go wrong in a kitchen remodel, and I was so glad to have the cabinets be headache-free! Finally, the quality of the cabinets is amazing. We've been in our new kitchen for about 6 months now and are happy to report that all our cabinets, drawers, shelves and doors are working perfectly. We're so happy we chose Bay Area Cab Supply for our kitchen and hope this review helps more people find out about this awesome family-owned company!

However, since I needed a job, I accepted the temp job anyways. Little did I know that that job was going to change my life! I ended up starting a career within the fire department and it's all because of Ascot Staffing! I never would have known to look at jobs within the fire department or what kind of careers were even at the department. I am SO glad Ascot Staffing placed me there! I have them to thank for my new career! Everyone was so nice and so helpful. Don & Nadine (no longer works there) were so helpful and I am super grateful for them. It was an easy process and you have to patient!!! I highly recommend going to Ascot Staffing if you're in need for a job, assistance, or any services Ascot Staffing provides! They will definitely take care of you! A few years later, I was on the other side of the spectrum being an employer looking to hire a temp employee and I worked with Don during that process. He was excellent and listened to what our needs were and gave us excellent candidates! We had a lot of great candidates to choose from which made it hard for us to hire! But that's exactly what we wanted! A good selection of people to choose from. I highly recommend going to Ascot Staffing if you're in need of a job or if you're looking for an employee. Ascot Staffing has always been so friendly, accommodating, and provides excellent service!

For my first major remodel, choosing The Bath Studio as my design and logistics partner was THE…read morebest decision. My 90s master bath was in terrible shape. I now have a functional bathroom that I enjoy using, is easier to clean, and has a lot of storage. I had a meeting with Julie where we discussed cost, potential time frames, and I decided to move forward. Julie came with a contractor to take photos and measurements. We scheduled a couple sessions and went through all the pieces and parts for several hours. Their office has a ton of samples to choose from and contrast / compare. During the meetings, Julie was creating a visual model so I could see the layout and make adjustments aesthetically and logistically. The Bath Studio produced a binder with a layout, all part numbers and vendors, and reference of where to put outlets, drawer handles, how to lay the tile, how many tiles to order, mirror positions, and dimensions etc. etc. They ordered all the parts, told me how much space I needed to store it, and parts were delivered to my garage as the demolition of the old bathroom began. Fred went through each item that was delivered, and also highlighted info that other customers had asked and the couple parts that were on backorder. Laura followed up on those, and it did not impact the time frame at all. The treatment I got from the team made me feel like a Real Housewife of San Ramon! As other Yelpers mention, there are 2 contracts: 1 with The Bath Studio and 1 with the contractor. From the construction execution side, the team was punctual and professional and it was fairly easy to get in touch with them. I was impressed with the demolition and installation of the electric infrastructure, the cabinets, sinks, linen closet, lighting, floors, accessories. The team always cleaned up after themselves which was very much appreciated. No remodel goes perfectly I guess. There was a problem during the build-out of the shower that caused some damage to my downstairs ceiling. There was another execution mishap later that took several weeks to get closed. Because I had partnered with a pro like Julie I remained confident the contractor would address these, though it was stressful. So - if you are looking to tackle a renovation and don't have the bandwidth or experience to lead and project manage the design and logistics, I totally recommend The Bath Studio.
