San Francisco
Customer Feedback:
Michael Mullin Architect, Ltd
“I can say Michael was by far the best part of my remodel process. There were problems with everybody involved, except for Michael. He rode through the whole project— he was the one person I could always count on. I have nothing but the highest accolades for Michael. I’d be thrilled to be able to work with him again.”

Aurora Painting & Decorating
“Dean really went the extra mile when he painted my beautiful Julia Morgan home in Berkeley. He did excellent work, and he treated me and my home with respect. Like all the people I have used in The Good Service Guide, he does quality work. I’m glad you’re including him.”

Contra Costa County
Customer Feedback:
McHale Insulation
“I’ve lived in the East Bay all my life and I never realized that insulation could make such a difference. My home was built in the 30s, and I just thought you had to have the heat on all winter. The whole house feels more substancial now, and the walls muffle sound.“

Peninsula
Customer Feedback:
Ross M. Stangeland DDS
“I’d had some bad experiences with dentists when I was younger. Dr. Stangeland was very considerate. I never felt tense or uncomfortable with him. I’ve never had a health care provider who’s taken such good careof me or my family. He and his staff take a personal interest in everybody who comes in. They are truly exceptional.”
