CONTRACTORS AND VENDORS

These are the folks that helped transform our home. Say hi from Chris and Christine at 71 Hilltop Drive.

CONTRACTOR.  Devin Fisse at Southern Exposure Construction.Mountain View, CA  (650) 960-6936.  http://www.secbuilds.com
Devin did our upstairs bathroom and then our big 2nd project (exterior, decks, downstairs, dining, decking. He has a great crew, he's reasonably priced and he's flexible with you hiring subs and ordering supplies (saves money).  Only challenge is things went more slowly than expected b/c of sub contractors delays but that's part of the game.  Great guy.

A good friend of mine is using Studio3.408-292-3252 and they have been very happy with the results (creative, respects budgets and assists through the contractor process).
