I'm reviewing Magic Gardens because, even though we didn't use them, I still wish we had. Aerin and…read morehis crew came out to do a bid for us and they were both highly professional and extremely creative. They clearly had a vision for our yard that was informed by a wealth of experience. Unfortunately they came back with an estimate we couldn't afford, but helpfully offered to scale back the plans to make them much more affordable. I mention all this because we decided to go with a guy to just do plans, which we hoped to implement gradually over time. Big mistake! The plans were expensive and unusable because the guy didn't truly understand the complexity of landscaping. I wish we'd gone with magic gardens from the start, as they clearly grasped the nuances of light and growth and brought artistry and passion to the process.

I recently had Magic Gardens landscape my large terraced back yard, and could not be more pleased…read morewith the results. They clearly wanted to deliver my dream garden while working with me to stay within my budget, involving me extensively in the process of design, plant selection, and placement, going so far as to save the wildflowers we had planted. I appreciated their vast knowledge of plants that would do well in our climate and soil conditions. All workers were friendly, considerate, and respectful of our property, and the work was completed surprisingly quickly for such a large job. Although it wasn't cheap, the pricing and billing was explained in detail with full transparency, work was done efficiently, and the project came in under budget. Now I just have to sit back and watch things grow!

We…read morecalled Williams Electric and within about two hours Geoff was at our house pulling the (disturbingly melted) offending breaker from the panel. He also checked connections on and tightened down all the other breakers on the panel, so we can be confident that there's no other problems lurking in that box. Thanks Geoff for the quick response and thorough work! Our house is warm and cozy again.

We called Rhonda and Jeff during a stressful and urgent situation and they were the only ones who…read moretruly showed up when we needed help. Instead of immediately pushing an expensive on-site visit, Jeff took the time to FaceTime with us, walked us through what to look for, and helped us safely troubleshoot the issue in real time. They were calm, knowledgeable, and focused on solving the problem and not upselling. This was especially appreciated because several other electricians we contacted either didn't respond or immediately tried to charge ridiculous amounts without even understanding the situation. It's rare to find someone who is both technically solid and genuinely helpful, especially in an urgent moment. We felt informed, supported, and not taken advantage of. Highly recommend Rhonda and Jeff!! Highly recommend if you're looking for an electrician who actually cares and operates with integrity.

The same person who previously came to help us came to take measurements of the window so they could order a replacement. They came by & we never heard from them again. They warned us the replacement could take a few months. A year later (ish), we reached out. They said they need to come by again & get the label from the window. We offered a good time (10 a.m. or later on date x). Now again not responding. I would never use this company again & do not recommrnd them. This unnecessary stress is ridiculous. I'm going to talk to my cc company to see what can be done. I'll also be contacting BBB, etc when I have the wherewithal. Luckily, my husband doesn't delete emails, so I have all my documentation.

Finding a good painter is hard. Finding an amazing painter is near impossible....then we found JB…read moreTownsend through our award winning interior designer and we feel like we have won the lottery. (Side note...I never write Yelp reviews, nor was asked to write this, nor got any discounts to write this. I just felt obligated to share my pure joy.) JB Townsend is no casual painting crew. They have a hands on management team that has experience in corporate level facilities management, so they have been held to standards much higher than residential real estate. Their understanding of interior design, construction, and paint materials/options gives them the advantage over everyone. Their whole crew, who was at our home for a week, was professional, organized, and respectful of our home (during covid). They were even very friendly to our children and dog. Their pricing is absolutely fair for the premier quality level of work they deliver. You will not be disappointed and most likely finding yourself inspired to write a Yelp review to express your appreciation.

Townsend Painting did a terrific job on our home. They stained our cedar siding, three redwood…read moredecks, and our wood stairs. They also painted a deck railing and one inside wall. Chris gave us a thoughtful estimate with good suggestions for cleaning and staining the wood. They were not cheap, but the work was absolutely outstanding. The crew used a pressure cleaner, a wood brightener, and sanding to prepare the surfaces. The stain was applied slowly by brush. The lead painter, Juan, was amazingly careful and paid great attention to detail. Chris came by every day to check on the progress and, in a few cases, asked for further work to take care of small problems we had not noticed. They also stained some wood trim that we had not included in the original bid. Our siding now looks like new. Thank you Townsend for doing such a great job!

If only 0 stars was an option…read more... Please do not purchase a voucher for duct cleaning from this company. I did (through Amazon local - although the business name listed was Fresh Breeze Air Duct cleaning which actually has some decent reviews on Yelp). The technician who came to my home was polite, professional, on time, etc. so we got off to a great start. But he immediately started finding major things wrong with my heat system that made it "impossible" for him to clean the ducts. In total, over $700 of repairs (and I was "lucky my house hadn't burned down" because of my furnace). When I balked at the estimate, the price immediately dropped to $500. When I said I wanted to get some other estimates since this was the first I'd heard about the issues, his entire tone and demeanor changed and he got pretty aggressive. I felt nervous having him in our home at that point and asked him to leave without even putting things back together. Today I had a reputable heating service come in and take look. They agreed that some of the work should be done, but the total bill is going to be $300 and I just have a much better feeling about the quality of work. And, by the way, they told me that the work that needed to be done had nothing to do with being able to clean the ducts - it would have been fine for him to do that part. So in the end, I got $0 of value from my $69 voucher (which Amazon Local was good enough to refund). Just a really stressful morning. Save yourself the trouble!

Please listen to all of these reviews. This is definitely a BIG time scam goin on here (can't…read morebelieve I got sucked into it , no pun intended). I would love to put these guys out of business... at least Amazon gave me my $49 dollars back, but I'm still out $150 for the additional 10 minutes of work they did on my 6 vents! Dean's has got some bad karma coming their way for sure!! I've never written a bad review for anything before but I REALLY don't want this to happen to another person. They don't even deserve 1 star. I've tried to contact them numerous times but to no avail. They were subcontracted by Duct Cleaning Services. I think this also reflects badly on them by the way. They were not helpful either. This is a very short version of a very long & stressful experience.

There's a reason Angelo and his team have 160 five star reviews (and counting). We worked with…read moreAngelo to find a SFH with some pretty specific requirements. Once we met him, we knew he'd be the perfect agent for our search given his decades of experience working in the Bay Area markets we were targeting. The best part of the whole experience is for us is that Angelo stayed in constant contact and was proactive with finding properties that met our somewhat strict requirements. Every day he would proactively send us new listings as soon as they came on the MLS, and he was instrumental in helping us write competitive offers on the few homes that we liked. In the end, with Angelo's guidance, we were able to beat out several other competing buyers to secure a home that checked all our boxes and was by far the nicest we'd come across in our months of searching. We feel incredibly lucky to have had him on our side from day 1 to the day we got the keys. I would (and will be) recommending to literally anyone who's looking to buy or sell property in the Bay to reach out to Angelo and his team first!

I would highly recommend Angelo to anyone looking to sell their home!
