Customer Feedback:

Kelley Painting & Waterproofing

“They’ve done a lot of jobs for me. It’s wonderful working with them— they’re on time, thorough, clean and courteous. They work well with neighbors, and are very professional. They’re able to handle difficult logistics with staging and scaffolding. Good men, and good work.”

Customer Feedback:

Earthquake Safety

“I had a very good experience with them. We wanted someone to bolt our house down, and other companies said they would have to open the walls and do all of this work, but Earthquake Safety were able to do it without all of that trouble. They were in and out really quickly and there were no problems. But if we have an earthquake and the house falls down, I’ll call you back!“
