    Jim Allen has been our family's electrician for several years, during which time he's always been dependable and professional. He has a solid understanding of his trade as well as a creative mind that has enabled him to successfully address run-of-the-mill electrical situations as well as deal with the idiosyncrasies of our home. In addition to being an excellent repairman he's also shown himself to be fair, honest and reasonable in his pricing.

    I would definitely NOT recommend West Coast Exteriors! Project Manager was completely naive about city ordinance and even ignored what research I did. Stay away!

    Kitchen and living areas remodel due to water damages
    $35,000
    50 days

    We had water damage in our house that ended up affecting about 700-800 square feet including our kitchen, dining, and living space. Their work was great and I am very impressed by how it all turned out. Everyone from our project manager to the painter was very nice and easy to work with. We will hire them again!

    These guys were so amazing to my Granny repairing her home from water damage. They really went above and beyond for her. Just the little things even, making sure she was comfortable since she stayed in her home during the renovation. She doesn't get around well and they could have easily taken advantage of her. She just can't say enough good things about each and everyone of the the workers from beginning to end. The house looks phenomenal. Thank you for your integrity and attention to detail.

    The Field Supervisor keeps his appointments, works with insurance companies, is responsive to calls from clients, has quick and efficient subcontractors. Best painters I have seen---careful but fast. I heartily recommend Ikon Builders.

    When I turned on my ceiling fan and it started to smoke I got scared but Jim at Absolute Best Electric calmed me down. He asked several questions and soon we both agreed that he needed to come see it for himself. Within a short time, he had diagnosed the problem and repaired the fan. His price was very fair. In fact, he worked longer than an hour and only charged me an hour. I think I will be calling him back very soon for some light fixture upgrades that I have wanted to do for some time. I can tell he loves his work and he's excellent at what he does. He may very well be the :absolute best" in electrical service.
