Featured Reviews for Specialist Contractors in Oakland, CA

The Hardcore Handyman
Specialist Contractors in Oakland, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars21 January 2018
“I honestly don't know what I'd do if Frank wasn't around. We call him to problem-solve constantly in our two stores and in my home. These old NYC and Brooklyn buildings are gorgeous, but they're basically falling down around us. Add in a bunch of landlords' bad decisions, and you gotta have someone who can make things right. Over the years Frank has hung shelves, built storage systems, rewired buzzers, fixed leaks, repaired lighting systems, built entire display cases from scratch, replaced floors, painted interiors and exteriors, installed sinks, and did it all reliably, fast, and with a smile. His problem solving abilities are legendary. He never says "no" or "I can't do it" - he finds a way to educate himself about the issue, does research, and comes up with the best solution possible and then GETS IT DONE. He is the best. Don't hesitate in hiring him. It took me 15 years in NYC to find a good handyman I am happy to say Frank is it. He's like a secret weapon!”
Golden Hammer Builder
Specialist Contractors in Oakland, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars15 June 2017
“Angel Castro was referred to me by a friend and I really appreciated the referral. He is very honest and his work quality is excellent. He was able to save me money on one of the jobs that he did for me because he discovered that part of a project could be salvaged without reducing the quality. He puts his client's best interest before his own. The only problem with Angel is that he is very much in demand. If he can do a job for you, you would be smart to grab him.”
Continuum Tile Co.
Specialist Contractors in Oakland, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars24 March 2013
“I used Dan to redo our small bathroom and was so impressed with his honesty, integrity and communication. He cleaned up every day after working and our bathroom looks fantastic. He helped us install a new shower, new tile, new toilet and vanity as well as putting in a heat lamp and heated towel rack. I really love the radiant heat floor he put in as well. He was really patient with any mistakes we made and kept to our budget which was quite reasonable. We will definitely use him again when we're ready for our next bathroom remodel.”
Fine Treehouse Building
Specialist Contractors in Oakland, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars9 August 2015
“John Henry is one of the finest craftsmen I've had the pleasure of working with. He designed and built a treehouse control room for one of our venues. It exceeded all expectations we had - in terms of eco friendliness (completely built out of scrap wood with not a single nail in the tree) and architecture (perfect front-of-the-house coverage for audio and light controls). John has an almost spiritual approach to construction lending his creations to blend naturally with the surroundings. He consulted with us at every important step of the project to ensure our requirements were being suitably addressed. John has an extremely positive demeanor and does business with total honesty. He ended up saving us hundreds of dollars on the control room treehouse project without compromising project function or quality.”
defauw design & fabrication, inc.
Specialist Contractors in Oakland, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars26 February 2014
“Henry and his crew rescued a very complicated railing job that had been mismanaged by another company. Henry came in and assessed the situation, giving us an accurate estimate of the time required and cost, and he fit us in to his busy schedule right away. He and his crew then figured out all where all the parts went and what was missing, and they worked closely with our contractor to handle certain areas that were tricky, either due to coding issues or physics. They were all very professional, knowledgable, and pleasant to work with. I'd hire them again in an instant, and recommend them highly.”

Palace of Glass
Specialist Contractors in Oakland, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars26 May 2016
“For my last project I needed 25 pieces of semi transparent textured bend inserts. Palace Of Glass provided preproduction sketches showing the different styles of pattern layout. My client choose to manufacture a sample first. This sample really helped to make final decision even though it was not cheap!!! The order was delivered timely, and photos were provided by the factory. Would order again!”
