Excavation |
|
| Olender's Tightspot Excavating Jonathan Olender (530) 906-7623 |
Don't you love it when you find someone that you REALLY like and feel good about? We did with Johnathan Olender. He is one of those people who will be there when he says he will, and go beyond the scope of work to do the best job possible. Even looking for ways of making things better, without charging you the extra time it took to do so. He deserves our highest recommendation! |
Glenn Allbright |
Both Glenn Allbright and Johnathan Olender worked on the excavation. They were two separate contractors. Johnathan did the most of the actual excavation, while Glenn installed the Septic and Leach Fields, he also helped take down some trees and then buried the stumps with his back-hoe (It sure saved us time if we tried to burn them or money in disposing them!). He also helped by widening our drive a little more. Glenn and Johnathan got along so well, that Glenn asked Johnathan to help him on other jobs. Jonathan then decided he wanted to learn more about installing septic systems from Glenn. |

Vance Construction |
Steve, his partner "Steve #2", along with Mike, worked their tales off. This roof was not an easy task and they put their heart and soul into it. Often risking their own life on the high, steep and cumbersome beams! It rained on them almost the entire winter of 2004/2005, which delayed us by a couple of months easy! I would recommend Steve's crew again in a heart beat. |

Although they did not install anything for us, we purchased things from them. They were very professional in everything they did and have a very nice showroom. I wish we had gone through them for our windows instead, as we did have some issues with the other company in getting our windows delivered and installed. |
