I reached out to Jim regarding a leak that was coming into the house at the lowest point of my home. I thought I would be in for a large cost to install a French drain system, but he was the first to say that we should look into seeing if we can solve this for $10. 1/ Adding some caulking to the side of the house, due to some cracking he saw in the exterior. 2/ adding to the downspout and adding a separate tube that can move the water to a different location. Super honest and thoughtful. In the future, if I need some investigation or work, Jim's my guy! Thanks for saving some money and being thoughtful. read more

We recently worked with Jim to redo the foundation and drainage system on our 1890s brick home, and we couldn't be happier with the results. He finished on schedule (and we had a really tight schedule) and didn't go a dollar over his quote. This was a really large project and I got quotes from 6+ vendors. While Jim wasn't the cheapest, he was far from the most expensive. He took care of everything - we didn't have to worry about permits or anything, and was always available to answer our calls and emails. Jim worked within our tight time frame, which was crucial for us. He provided thoughtful ideas and recommendations to help expedite the work, including how to stagger work with our other contractors outside of his crew. His expertise and attention to detail were evident in the quality of his work. Couldn't recommend Jim & his crew more! read more

Jim Gardner Construction - New foundation in basement - General Contractors Near Me - Oakland, California

I can't say enough great things about Jim and his crew. We did a complete 1910 foundation replacement and seismic stabilization. Even though we had a very tight schedule, he was able to get it done more or in the specified timeframe and on budget. The contract was signed on August 4th, work completed October 6th, with final city sign-off on October 17th. Jim's decades of experience working with the city really showed. Jim came out to do an estimate a couple of days after I filled out the form on his webpage. His estimate was significantly lower than others. He worked with the plans I has hired an engineer to draw up ~12 years ago, and got the plan approved by Oakland within 10 days. Our crawlspace is an unpleasant place to be, and I really appreciated the incredibly hard work of Luis and the rest of the crew. The only part outsourced was concrete delivery. A lot of them have worked with Jim for a long time, and they were very friendly and did a good job keep the workspace as neat as possible. Luis and Jim were great at keeping us informed about what was happening and answering our questions. The work looks great and they did a good job on fixing the siding, access hatches and soil. His estimate included everything, including the engineering revisions and permitting costs. We highly recommend Jim Gardner Construction. It's a great feeling that the house won't fall down when the Big One inevitably hits! read more

Jim came by today to estimate two drainage jobs for me. One for my personal residence and one for my rental home. First of all, Jim is very experienced and comes across as a straight shooter. He is the owner of his company and clearly takes pride on the work they do. Both of my problems have to do with water intrusion due to poor original design. Jim takes a very consultative appoach and weighs the cost of repair with the amount risk if the problem is not addressed. Rather than give me a sky-high estimate, Jim encouraged us to first determine how bad the problem is with some quick and easy to implement short-term fixes. He suggested in both cases to divert water from our gutter downspouts away from exterior walls of the house with flexible drain pipe to first see if that would mitigate the water intrusion and to report back during the rainy season or in a year when we have a better sense of the magnitude of the problem and whether simply diverting drain water is enough to mitigate the problem. I've worked w many contractors, tradesmen, and handymen over the years. There are plenty who are in it just to make a buck by hook or crook, but thank god for the honest guys like Jim, who believe in honesty and integrity and view homeowners as long term clients vs targets to be exploited. Thanks, Jim! read more

We needed to replace a bridge driveway in the East Bay hills - a big, expensive, project. After asking 3 contractors for descriptions of the work and estimates of the cost, we chose Jim Gardner. He came highly recommended and did not disappoint. He described the needed work in a common sense way and spent the time necessary for us to understand building codes and city permitting. He recommended engineers and provided detailed cost estimates. He kept to the schedule and delivered everything promised on budget. He was responsive to every request and took time to answer what must have seemed "dumb" questions. I never thought I'd say this about a contractor, but I actually looked forward to talking with him about the job! Jim's crew was the best I've ever worked with. They were courteous, professional, and remarkably skilled. They went out of their way to accommodate us, to inform us of every step in the project, and to keep the worksite safe and orderly. I have worked with several contractors over the years but never had as good an experience as I had working with Jim Gardner. I recommend him highly and without reservations. read more

Jim came out to take a look at some leaks in my garage. He was extremely easy to communicate with and very transparent. My job was too small for his team to take on, but he still took the time to help and advise me and make sure I understood his recommendations. I would love to work with Jim on any larger projects! read more

I reached out to Jim with a handful of drainage, wood rot, and crawl space concerns. Jim responded the next day and got me on the schedule for that week. Jim took the time to walk around my house with me and call out potential root causes to our problem, but told me I needed to get more information before he could quote me on any scope of work. I appreciate Jim pointing me towards the next steps in diagnosing the problem rather than sell me a solution that may or may not fix it. If you need an honest, expert opinion, I highly recommend Jim. I look forward to working with him again. read more

Very pleased with the work that was done-- especially the integrity of James Gardner. After I raised a question about blocking (to attach the house framing to the new foundation), at first glance, he said it was probably OK. And that he'd ask the foreman. Apparently, the foreman of the crew said it was done adequately, but Jim came back to personally inspect. Nope. Jim gave the crew a lecture, and sent them back to do it right, plus do a few extras. All this was done after I had made the final payment, and I would not have known the difference. It is heart-warming to know contractors who honestly care about the quality of their work still exist! Of course, the company passed all the city inspections, but my question was more about seismic issues, not the foundation itself. I hired a separate seismic company afterward. They did less that $1,000 of work, and I got a verification of being up to required insurance standards. I would definitely hire this company again if Jim Gardner (who was always easy to reach) was involved. The crew (mostly from El Salvador, I believe) was friendly and prompt. I was surprised that someone misled Jim. The French drain the the company put in works well; the basement is dry. read more

If you need French drains or foundation work --or any other work Jim does--he and is crew are great to work with, reliable, and do a great job at a competitive price. A year ago my husband and I didn't know what a French drain was. We'd lived in our 90+ year old home in Berkeley's Claremont neighborhood for almost 50 years and never had water in out basement furnace room until last winter's heavy rains. We got some emergency help and sump pumps from a general contractor we've used for years. But he advised us to hire an engineer and get French drains and do some other foundation work--as it appeared water was getting into our crawl space prior to soaking through the concrete walls of the furnace room. After getting an engineer's report that wasn't as specific as I'd expected, I spent a lot of time trying to find the right contractor. We knew this would be a big job. (The drains needed to run along the east side of our house, where we have an old, brick-patterned driveway running close to 100' from our garage to the street.) We were very concerned about damage to the driveway, which would be hugely expensive to replace. And we worried about how we could possibly match even the narrow area that definitely had to be dug up. I did a lot of looking online and was discouraged. Not many contractors seemed to specialize in this kind of work or have great reviews. Then I came across Jim Gardner Construction. His website was full of pictures of many projects with the exact kind of work we needed. I saw excellent reviews but still asked for references. Everyone I called had great things to say about Jim, including an older woman (like me), who said he always showed up promptly when she had a new problem, big or small, even in foul weather. We made an appointment to meet Jim, who arrived on time, was clear (but not pushy) about what he proposed, and promptly emailed us a written contract describing the work and the price for the drain work, including the driveway repair, and a separate price for the foundation work. Our engineer had suggested using an underground sump pump to expel the captured water to the street. Jim noticed that the ground on the opposite side of our property is lower than that on the the east side, where the drains would go. He proposed extending the drains from the bottom of the driveway across the width of the property, where gravity would move water, avoiding the need for an underground sump pump likely to require ongoing maintenance and eventually replacement. We were sold. His crew, here for weeks, was always helpful, thoughtful, hard working, and neat! They cleaned up each day, making sure all trenches were safely covered. Months later my neighbor still comments about how hard working they were. And our family is amazed at how well they cut and patched our old brickwork and matched the existing driveway. I highly recommend Jim and his crew. read more

Contacted Jim for work on our foundation and he said to fill out information on the website which I did. He emailed back asking for pictures and more details and estimated cost?? (WTH am I some estimator?) . I provided more details but there are no pictures that would be helpful to demonstrate what needs to be done. Plus am I an engineer? Does your auto mechanic ask you to diagnose why your car isn't working and how much you think the cost will be? He emailed back saying no thanks your job is too small. I asked him how he knows this and what defines a "small job"? Never heard back. My recommendation is go with someone who will actually take the time and courtesy to evaluate the scope of a project. If you read the Reviews you'll see he'll cherry pick big projects and blow off anything else. Never knew snobby construction companies exist but I guess they do. Jim, if you only work on top dollar projects then state that on your website and don't waste your time and mine with all this silly back and forth. I had no problem getting 5 other companies to come out and evaluate and give their bids. I bet he'll respond real fast with a reply to my review! read more

Mr Gardner visited my home to inspect several piers that were exhibiting "problems." His analysis off the problem was "on point!" I appreciate his efforts!! And yes, I would absolutely recommend his company!! read more

I just met with Jim this afternoon. He responded to my email quickly and was right on time for our appointment today (thank you). Jim took the time to not only inspect our foundation but went into great details about his findings - he also was patient with my many questions and provided great information. We are fortunate that in Jim's opinion we do not need extensive repairs but he did suggest some retrofitting we could do. I just want to say I appreciated his honesty and taking the time to explain everything. Thank you! read more

Just had Jim out to assess a drainage issue. He was direct, thorough and very helpful. Given that my problem was small in light of our worst rains in recent history, rather than try to sell an unnecessary solution, he suggested that I probably didn't need a big project. He instead talked me through some practical changes to garden and gutter drainage. Pleasant, knowledgeable and honest. Thank you, Jim! read more

I had originally contacted Jim to get an estimate on a new driveway, but the New Year's Eve rains presented us with a new problem, water intrusion in our family room. Jim responded to my emails over the holiday weekend and quickly came out to provide an estimate on a French drain (we should have done decades ago). His team started work within the week and worked through the worst rainstorms in early January. It was a muddy mess, but they did a good job of cleaning up at the end of each day so it was manageable. Jim was very patient with my questions and worries. I am so happy to have had this work done. They were very professional and responsive. read more

Jim came out to my house today to evaluate the foundation on our 1920s single story home. We'd had three previous people come out who ranged from willing to do the earthquake Brace and Bolt work with no second thought, to being very rude, to being alarmist. Jim spent more time with me than anyone else. He actually got under the house (with me) and discussed in frank and realistic terms what needed to be done. He didn't try to sell me on a service that was just a bandaid for us and a payday for him (Earthquake Brace and Bolt retrofit) and he didn't tell me that I should freak out. He explained how and why my foundation will need to be replaced at some point in the future, what that would look like and entail, and - ballparky - what that would cost. Now that I understand that a seismic retrofit would be work that would essentially be wasted once the necessary replacement needs to happen, I'll pass on the grant. Furthermore, I will not be over-swept with anxiety that at any moment my house will fall down (barring, of course, The Big One). Because of Jim I have a good sense of what work needs to be done, around what it will cost, and the understanding that I can work to save up that money in an unalarmed fashion. If you have a project that's within his skill set, I'd strongly encourage asking him to come out and look at it with you and talk it over. I can't vouch for his work, but I hope to in the future when our finances allow. read more

Jim Gardner came to my house (masked! thank you, Jim!) to assess what we thought was a failing - and potentially dangerous - retaining wall in our backyard. I was anticipating a pitch for a very expensive solution to our problem. Jim not only did not "pitch me", he told me I did not need him for the kind of work that needed to be done. We thought we had an urgent problem that called for an immediate, extensive, and expensive solution. Jim told us we did NOT need major construction, and we did not need to hire a company like his. He gave us detailed advice for how to fix our problem, right down to the depth of the holes we need to dig. If I ever have the need to build something or address a serious structural problem, I know where to go for the job. I feel very fortunate that I happened upon Jim Gardner Construction. read more

Jim's work, and the experience of working with him, was absolutely outstanding from start to finish. The assessment of our project was spot on, the cost was competitive, the communication was excellent, and the quality and delivery of the work exceeded our expectations. We recently moved into a 1920s home that had significant foundation issues, along with some framing that had apparently degraded and been patched repeatedly over the years. Between pest and foundation, we had received extremely pricey quotes. Jim provided us with an extremely thorough inspection of our foundation and subfloor (others just gave it a few minutes' glance) and was able to propose a solution that repaired existing damage while installing permanent drainage to help prevent future degradation. Of all the contractors we spoke to, only Jim was able to diagnose the underlying issue, and provide an economical solution that would actually solve the problem long-term. Permitting and scheduling were a breeze (Jim handled everything) and work began promptly after we accepted the bid. Jim's crew was a pleasure to work with, and were scrupulously respectful of our neighbors. The job site was clean throughout, and the crew made it easy for us to go about our normal routine during the day. Additionally, they went above-and-beyond to keep the project moving on schedule -- even though patches of rain. Through the entire process, Jim's communication was fast and thorough. We had a lot of questions, and Jim was kind enough to walk us through his team's process every step of the way. The finished result is excellent. The subfloor is in great condition, the new drainage works wonderfully, and the team did a beautiful job matching the texture and color of our stucco. We couldn't have asked for greater ease, transparency, and quality on what we assumed would be a daunting project. read more

Jim came to my house to discuss my project for 4 hours. He said it was a smallish project, but he would fit it in within 30 days. I pinged him after a month of not hearing back and he said a few more weeks, I pinged him AGAIN after that and he said "I can't do the project." I wish he would have told me he could not do it up front or at least gotten back to me with his change of mind much sooner. As it is, I canceled appointments and got off the wait lists with others and wasted 6 weeks waiting on Jim. When he finally told me he could not do it, I had to get back on the wait lists for the others some of which were now 8 weeks long (I have an appointment in October now after talking to Jim in early summer). It was especially infuriating as he said while we were talking "I really hope you let me do your house...." He may do good work, but he did not keep his word to me, he had no issue leaving me stranded and did not reply to my follow up emails asking him to at least provide a referral to someone who might help if not a later date when he himself could do the work. I would advise anyone wanting to work with him to get a written contract before eliminating other options. His other references are good and he seemed to know what my house needed (a bit off from final assessment I now have, but w/o a structural engineer I think his assessment was the best he could do), so this review is not a reflection on his skills. UPDATE: I have since exchanged several messages with Jim where he was defensive for many emails and then after a few weeks acknowledged that this was his mistake, but he still takes issue with my posting my experience to Yelp. I definitely thought a lot before posting this review, I waited weeks to give him a chance to get back to me, but I did not hear back until I posted this review and I am sure that without this review I would NEVER have heard from him offering to do this work at a later date, much less a date to my convenience. I think he thought he would do it, but then judging by other more recent reviews got bigger jobs and mine was not a priority so it got dropped. read more

Jim and his crew just completed the replacement of the original 1909 foundation of our home in Berkeley. Some great things about working with Jim: - Excellent quality of work. Everything was done as agreed and I am so happy to have the peace of mind that comes with having my shoddy old foundation replaced. - Value. I received multiple bids for this project. The proposals ranged from $120K+ with a whole bunch of added items I didn't ask for, down to much cheaper repair/retrofit options. Jim was straightforward that he wasn't willing to do a repair and a full replacement was needed, and compared to the other bids for replacement his was very competitive. - Flexibility. I reached out to Jim initially over a year before we actually began the project, and our timeline was derailed for personal life reasons. When we were ready to begin work, I reached back out to Jim and he was immediately responsive, willing to take on the project at the original bid, and able to begin within the month. I liked how little BS there was in getting things going with Jim. - Communication. With any big project, there will more likely than not be bumps in the road. You want to work with someone who's communicative and ready to respond to your concerns. In our case, the work on the foundation led to a leak in the water main. Jim was responsive late at night when I reached out about it and even sent his foreman out to address the issue. In another instance, there was an access point that wasn't completed exactly as expected. Jim and his crew quickly responded and resolved. - COVID safe. Jim and crew wore masks and took care to distance when my wife and I were out and about. This is my first and only time having foundation work done, but based on my experience I highly recommend working with Jim on similar projects of your own. For what it's worth we hope to be replacing our garage foundation in the coming years and I will absolutely hope to work with Jim again on that. read more

Jim came to our condo to meet with HOA members and give us an estimate for some foundation and drainage issues. He was very responsive, on time, and friendly. We were concerned about a number of issues and Jim did a great job explaining everything to us. He definitely calmed our nerves and helped us make a plan to fix some of the simple issues on our own. He was very quick in providing an estimate. I would definitely call him again. read more

We are filled with gratitude at getting to have Jim assess our home's foundation. As our home is a 1914 craftsmen bungalow that had some questionable work done by the prior owner, we were expecting the worst and therefore had put off getting eyes on it for several years. We found Jim to be incredibly responsive, and he had us scheduled for an inspection immediately; upon which, he found there were no major issues. GIANT sigh of relief! Big thank you to Jim for being thorough in looking over our home and foundation, thoughtful on his recommendations of the things we should do for upkeep along with maintenance needed on the small issues he did find, and respectful & honest in his assessments. He is a wealth of information, and was kind to share it so readily. We are now big fans of his and hope that someday if we ever do need work done, we get to work with him. read more

Jim is great. I reached out through his website, got a response back within a day or two and we were able to schedule a site visit within a few days thereafter. He gave us very good advice for next steps and gave us a detailed scope of work. It's been a great experience thus far and looking forward to working with Jim and his team. read more

This review is only for initial contact. Jim has never done work on my property, so I cannot speak to his work. I went his website to fill out a request for estimate and found it kinda harsh. I think the overall message is "don't waste his time". He responded to my request asking me to send pictures, provide him with measurements, and telling me that my idea of cost was way off base. Taking measurements and looking at the project should be his job not mine. That's what an estimate appointment is right? I went with someone else, and my estimate for work was spot on. read more

Jim did our foundation and we highly recommend him. He was thorough, detailed and kept us in the loop the entire time. We would definitelty work with him again. read more

I filled out an estimate form on their website and Jim replied the next day. I'm still in the estimate phase with Jim, but he's been unbelievably responsive. We were emailing back and forth late last night, often with his replies coming back within minutes of my emails. He's looked at my schematics, photos, and asked a ton of questions before giving me a rough estimate, and the estimate was completely reasonable for the work. I'm super impressed so far. read more

Jim came out to my house to take a look at a water seepage issue through my concrete foundation wall. He spend a good amount of time reviewing the issue from the inside and outside of the house. He recommended starting with a smaller DIY solution to see if that solves the issue, and to give him a call during the next rainy season if water still makes it through. Very good and honest information, rather than just pricing something that may not be needed. read more

Like one of the other reviewers, Jim just came out to give me an estimate, but ended up explaining to me why I didn't really need his services. I have a few new cracks in my front concrete stairs that I thought might be causing a problem, but Jim patiently explained that the issue is cosmetic, not structural, and can be solved (for now, anyway) with some caulk. I appreciated his willingness to crawl underneath the house to see for himself that make sure there wasn't a bigger problem. Next time I do need some work done, he'll be the first person I call for an estimate! read more

We recently bought a 1920s home and found there were some drainage problems and the wall cracks indicating settlement issues. Jim, from the get go, knows how to manage clients and their projects. He asks pointed, high-yield questions starting with his online questionnaire that help tailor his consultation to your exact needs and budget. He provides honest assessments and is uninterested in offering quick, cheap fixes that will not solve your problems - very refreshing and much appreciated. He is very knowledgable and reliable. We won't hesitate to reach out to Jim again when we have work that needs to be done! read more

Jim Gardner recently completed a small foundation job at my house. I would highly recommend Jim Gardner Construction for foundation work. To begin with, it is a pleasure doing business with him. He is very professional and always responds to questions, email, and phone calls quickly. He arrived to inspect the job on time. Provided a quote in days. He emailed complete paperwork and clearly answered questions about the contract. He provided a long list of relevant references. I called several of them and they gave Jim glowing reviews. He started the work within a week. Many of the other companies I called couldn't start for months. Second, the people working for him were great. I was home during the entire job. The worked hard, were polite and respectful, and most of all they did a great job of cleaning the worksite at the end of each day. The cost of the job was pretty much what we expected. We had some foundation work done on another part of the house about 15 yrs ago so we knew what to expect. We also contacted another construction company this time for a quote. Jim's costs were similar to the other company. The difference was that what the other company was suggesting was more of a patch job. Jim proposed something a little more extensive and we liked his proposal better even though it would cost more because he was proposing to do more. Jim was also very accommodating with regard to unexpected problems. The foundation was underneath our front door. The door needed to be rehung. At first they thought it would take about an hour but that approach wasn't working. Jim sent out another crew the next day and they spent 8 hours opening up the wall to discover the door was never properly framed. They reframed the door and re-plastered the wall. He did this all a no extra charge. I've been under the house to look at the work. I'm an engineer and, though I'm not a foundation guy, it all looked good. The City Inspector also said Jim did a lot of extra work improving our earthquake shear walls around the work area under the house. read more

Exceptional company! Jim and his wing man, Luis, completed the work on the drainage around our foundation on time and within budget. The team arrived every morning at 8 am. And they left every evening with the work area tidy (a fact noted and appreciated by our neighbors). The work they did was detailed and perfect. Luis has been working with Jim Gardner for 15 years and went the extra mile for us in every respect. I recommend this company HIGHLY. read more

This review is only for initial contact, but I highly recommend people to contact his company. I filled out the web form to request a quote on the stairs/porch area and some structural concerns we have about our Victorian home. Jim responded via email within a couple of days to schedule an in-person consultation. Ultimately, the job required wasn't something his crew would typically work on, and it wasn't easy to estimate the cost because of the historical element of the house. Still, he spent a good hour evaluating the issues/structures answering all our questions and sharing his insights on how to approach some portions of the projects DIY or handyman route instead of hiring a crew. If you have a project that fits the work categories this company provides, you should definitely contact him to check it out. read more

We had a wonderful experience working with Jim Gardner and his crew. They demolished our old, decaying porch and turned it into a beautiful addition to our kitchen. The crew arrived every day at 8am and worked consistently through 5pm, stopping only for a quick lunch. In addition to being punctual and hard working, they were kind, respectful and enjoyable to have around. The work area was tidied up at the end of every day. The job was completed on time and on budget, even when some unexpected challenges came up with our old house. Excellent workmanship. Excellent attention to details. Excellent communication all through the project. You cannot get better value and service. We highly recommend Jim Gardner Construction. read more

Jim Gardner Construction - Porch Conversion Before - General Contractors Near Me - Oakland, California

See all

I had a great experience with the work that Jim Gardner deed for me. He replaced our front stairs and porch. Everything came out looking great. One thing that especially pleased me was his diligence in handling the "punch list" of small items that needed to be taken care at the end of the job. I highly recommend this company. In fact, I am currently scheduling a second project with them. read more

The main structural beam of our house on stilts was rotting which was very scary. We got all kinds of different estimates: Some very cheap offering to simply inject some Epoxi in the wood and some insanely expensive (and alarmist) offering to not only replace the whole beam but to also fix parts of the deck and replace a few additional posts... We were very confused to get so many different and opposite estimates for the same problem. Jim Gardner's estimate was a good inbetween: he wanted to replace the rotten part of the beam only and then to fix the source of the leak that created the rot in the first place. The work him and his team did was excellent. He also was kind enough to take the time to answer ALL of our questions. We're so happy we found him and we'll definitely work with him again in the future!! read more

I highly recommend speaking with Jim. He knows his craft very well and he gives it to you straight. I called Jim because I was suspecting some foundation issues at home in the Berkeley Hills. He was very knowledgeable and honest in his assessment of my issues. At the very least, you should speak with Jim to see what he says if you are considering a project of this type. read more

I reached out to Jim Gartner about the possible need to replace the front steps on my property in Oakland. I used his website to describe the issue and provide my contact info. He called me the next business day and was able to schedule an appointment the following week! He arrived right on time for our appointment and proceeded to crawl under the house to inspect the steps from underneath - this required crawling on hands and knees 50' across a dirt floor through lots of cobwebs!. I've worked with lots of contractors over the years and very few are willing to crawl under a house just for a free estimate. He told me the stairs were in relatively good shape and just needed some repairs. And even though the cost of the repairs were below the minimum for his company, Jim took time to tell me how he would make the repairs if he was doing the job. This was another example of Jim's high integrity and probably why he has so many 5 star reviews. I'll definitely be calling him again when I have a bigger job. read more

Jim and his company is great! I needed help in getting a fence built into an existing concrete retaining wall and Jim took the time to meet with me and go over my options. None of which included his company doing the work! Jim just wanted to make sure that whether it was a job he was involved in or not that I was on the right track in getting the job done correctly. What wonderful customer service! Jim is a true professional and more knowledgeable then most regarding all aspects of construction. He even told me to call him if I run into any questions later. I would recommend his company to anyone! Thank you again Jim. read more

Jim just came by to check our foundation and drainage (older craftsman). He spent a considerable amount of time under the house and examining our porch for any structural deficiencies. Ultimately, he determined that we didn't require foundation work at this time, and I appreciate his candor. He is very knowledgable, and he helped to prioritize which improvements we should tackle first. read more
