“The screening project came out good.  Just what I had envisioned. Thanks.”    -- Jim Huggins

Cathi had a great vision for the bathroom, salvaging the old and adding countertop space.  She refinished the cabinets, which both kept the look consistent with the original character of the house, and kept costs down.  I am very happy with her hard work and her great results, and I love my new bathroom."   — David D.

 ------------------------------------------------

“Cathi-the-Contractor” has done ‘handy-man’ work for me before, and so it was a no-brainer to hire her when our home bathroom ran amuck. She was prompt, offered a reasonable evaluation and quote for the job, helped us pick out the tile, and kept us informed every step of the way. All our questions have been answered professionally, and we have total trust with the job in Cathi’s hands. It’s such a pleasure to do business with someone of her caliber and experience.” 
- Cheryl & Ricardo Valdebenito

They (custom bookcases) are just exactly what I wanted--and it was great fun working with Cathi, she is a real expert!”   - Susan Dei

"I must compliment you, Cathi, on your personal attention that you have given me
and the job at hand.  You have a special talent for making the customer satisfied no matter
what the situation.  By constantly calling me and updating me on work schedules, permits, inspections, etc., I consider personal and old-fashioned management skills at their
highest level." - Leon Reichle

"You are a lifesaver!  We were faced with problems left by a contractor who walked off our job with a list of half-completed projects.  But, when we met Cathi we knew our problems would be solved!  It was such a welcome change to have construction professionals who made me feel like they respected my home and my budget!  The work is great and I always feel that there was an attention to detail and finishing the job right."  Cerese Taylor
 
------------------------------

I contracted with Cathi Chamberlain to reface our kitchen cabinets.  I must say that it was a very satisfying experience.  First of all, she is very skilled and showed considerable attention to the fine details. Cathi modernized our 30-year old cabinets to look just as good as brand new ones.  She was prompt. I did not have to worry if she was going to show up.  She was courteous and respectful. She cleaned up after the work.  These things were important to me. So, I would recommend Cathi's good work to anyone.   --Gwen Rao                                                 -----------------------------------
