We did not luck out. We hired Ricky, the owner, for a custom bathroom vanity and storage tower,…read moreexpecting quality craftsmanship from a local small business. Instead, we got rough, poorly finished cabinet doors and six months of being ignored. The most visible areas -- the front-facing doors -- were left with raw wood grain and saw marks. A basic sanding and wood filler (used elsewhere on the same project) would have prevented it. When we sent photos, Ricky agreed it wasn't up to his standards and promised to replace the doors after "a busy patch." That was half a year ago. Since then: no responses to calls, texts, or emails. We chose him over a Restoration Hardware or Rejuvenation vanity because we wanted to support a local craftsman who would stand behind their work. That trust was misplaced. Learn from our mistake -- be wary of Dad the Builder. Project budget: $5600 Pros: energetic, young, well intentioned Cons: poor attention to detail, follow through, communication

We contacted Ricky for two projects, a single closet barn door and custom barn doors to provide…read moreseparation between two rooms. Ricky was the only one who would tackle the custom door project due to its size. We are so glad we hired Ricky. He responded quickly to our initial inquiry, he arrived on-time to the appointment and gave a fair price for the projects. Ricky worked with us during the design phase and provided us with a drawn rendering of the final project. Once we signed off on it, Ricky proceeded to make the doors in a reasonable time frame and would keep us informed as to the progress. Once the doors were made and ready for installation, Ricky arrived on-time for the appointment, he completed the installation as discussed and left everything clean afterwards. The quality of his work is fantastic! We are very pleased with the final results. We would not hesitate to hire him for future projects

This is long overdue, but we had a very positive experience working with Dave and his team. We had…read morea large, empty wall in our living room and wanted a built-in entertainment center, including ample storage for kids toys, a record player, and a few hundred records. I emailed Dave, and he quickly responded with a detailed design and quote. I collected two other quotes, and Dave's was the most competitive. Dave and his entire team were very easy to work with, which was a relief, as renovations are stressful, especially with young children. Start to finish, every person we interacted with was on time, friendly, and most importantly, skilled craftsmen. We will absolutely use Dave and his team for future cabinetry projects.

We hired JC & Sons Landscaping to update our backyard. Joe came out and we discussed everything we…read morewanted and he got back to us quickly with an estimate that was lower than the other companies we'd considered. They did some demo work, poured concrete for a new walkway and patio, added a long pony wall for a large planter, and installed new sod and irrigation. Juan and his crew were professional and respectful and communication was excellent throughout the process. The yard looks wonderful, exactly what we wanted and we're very happy with the results. Joe is an honest businessman and it was a fair price for the job. We'll definitely recommend JC & Sons Landscaping to our friends and neighbors and we'd hire Joe again if we need more work done in the future.

After meeting with Adam and several other contractors, I decided to go with Patio Guy not only…read morebecause of his five-star rating, but several other factors that were important to me (and probably you as well): 1) He could deliver and install my new cover within a week vs. the other guys taking months; 2) I wasn't limited to just the AlumaWood product (which wasn't modern enough for me), and (3) his price to install with an upgraded cover (insulated) was far below his competitors constrained by higher overhead and slower delivery times. I ended up selecting a Duralum cover that his company also offers, and I'm glad I did. It's just the look I was going for. I was also impressed with Adam's business model, which is built on quality and efficiency at a very reasonable price without cutting corners or sacrificing customer service. Now for the best part: A guy named Brody, his lead installer. In addition to being a super nice guy, his work is meticulous. The back of my home isn't linear, so there are bump-outs and protrusions, making the installation more difficult and time consuming. This wasn't the slightest challenge for Brody and his team. The finished product is snuggled tightly against my stucco and professionally sealed on the roof to prevent any water dripping through when it rains. I watched him work, measuring and cutting the aluminum to match my home so the fit and finish is far greater than I imagined. As you can tell from the photos, I still have work to do (concrete coating, fence repairs, etc.) to match the beauty of my new cover.

Adam came down next day for a detailed quote and Brody and team build new patio up in less than two days a couple weeks later. Would have been one day but they had to remove my old leaking patio otherwise it would have been one day job. 40 ft × 11 ft are dimensions for new patio which adds significant amount of usable patio space for us. Only regret is that I didn't do this years ago. Price, professionalism, communication, demo, build and clean up were all amazing. Highly recommended and would absolutely use again.

I can't recommend Lindsey enough! From the very beginning, she was professional, responsive, and so…read moreeasy to communicate with. She was always on time, listened carefully to what I wanted, and really understood my style and vision. She helped organize and decorate my business studio in a way that feels both beautiful and functional. She had a great eye for detail and made the entire process feel effortless. I never felt like she was pushing her own ideas--instead, she took the time to understand my taste and brought it to life even better than I had imagined. Working with her was such a positive experience, and my studio is now a space that I genuinely love walking into every day. If you're looking for someone who is talented, organized, reliable, and truly cares about creating a space that reflects you, I highly recommend her!

She also went above and beyond the original scope of work after noticing a few additional items needing attention. She transformed the space and it was no surprise that we ended up with multiple offers within days of listing -- undoubtedly due to the transformation she made on the home - in a neighborhood where listings typically sit for weeks at a time. Not only did she impress me, but my client loved her as well - which makes me look great in the eyes of my client. I would 100% recommend her for design and staging services and will be calling her for all my local listings & client needs in the future.
