Testimonials
What They’re Saying
"Kent oversaw the remodel of my kitchen. He seamlessly coordinated with the designer, cabinet maker, counter installer, and electrician. He also did extensive carpentry, tiling, painting, and appliance installation. Kent was easy to work with and completely reliable. I am very satisfied with the finished product."
Jim – Stanford, CA
"The first thing you notice about Kent is that he is careful, clean, and respectful of your property, never leaving footprints or a mess. He gives great advice and is honest in his appraisal of a problem. He has fixed many things for me, professionally, thoroughly, and for a fair price. He is responsive and efficient. I highly recommend him."
Margaret – Palo Alto, CA
"Kent is my hero. I lost my dear husband in Dec. 2020 and was feeling a bit nervous about living alone. Kent came to my rescue installing security lights on my side yard and an entry door knob and deadbolt lock on the gate to my backyard. I feel much more secure now. He always has great ideas, and he takes great pride in what he does. Kent always does a great job."
Susan – Redwood City, CA
"I appreciate Kent's attention to detail and perfection and the time he's willing to put in to get it right. My courtyard deck is very happy with the wind and rain - just as beautiful, protected and shiny as ever ! 😍."
Dona – Palo Alto, CA
"Kent moved the hook ups for the washer and dryer from one room in the house to another. It was a pleasure to work with him. It looks like it has always been there. Great attention to detail in finishing."
Dave – Palo Alto, CA
"Superior work replastering and perfectly matching large section of living room ceiling with attention to details. Reasonable fee. I recommend Kent highly."
Phyllis – Palo Alto, CA
"Kent is an excellent problem solver. He was able to restore a shower stall that had been left with missing parts, finish a floor that had also not been completed, install a unique sink (several people have been impressed by). His workmanship is excellent. We have been very pleased with his help, not to mention that he is also kind."
David & Sherrie – Palo Alto, CA
"Kent is the person I trust to make repairs in my rental property. I live remotely, and I never have anything to worry about. Recently he replaced a dishwasher for my tenants. He picked up the appliance at the store of my choice, delivered it and installed it, all in a professional and timely manner—with no up-charge. He is prompt, courteous, takes COVID precautions, and communicates well with both tenants, and owners. Not only is Kent handy, but he is very clever, and can figure things out. If something can be fixed, and you prefer it, he will fix, rather than simply replace it. Everybody is happy to see Kent because he is so friendly, even under what most people regard as a stressful situation. Frankly, I no longer dread something going wrong at my rental, even though I live in another state.."
Enid – Menlo Park, CA
"Kent was one of the only people able to fix my electric heat-pump water heater after searching far and wide. He can fix almost anything and is meticulous, does excellent work and at a great value. I highly recommend Kent for any needs you have around your house or apartment."
Mary Jane – Palo Alto, CA
"Kent has been painting our family properties for over 20 years and has always done excellent work. He did a super job rebuilding the entrance to our condo. He replaced all the rotten wood and poured a wonderful concrete foundation. It blends perfectly with the rest of the building."
Larry – Palo Alto, CA
"Kent always pays attention to details and does the job right. His eye for color and creative design insures that anything he works on will impress."
