    Countertops

    Any updates IHO? The previous owner of my house was a contractor, and he installed granite on all of the countertops. I like the look of them, but cleaning is a bit of a pain. My friends who have granite countertops as well told me that I can't use "regular" products like Clorox wipes to clean...

    Anyone know of a good landscape electrician

    Wrong, wrong, wrong, and wrong. I'm simply a satisfied customer that enjoys writing recommendations for the service providers that I'm very happy with. See my other reviews before you jump to conclusions.

    Anyone know of a good landscape electrician

    I used California Custom Landscape. They ripped out my front and back yards, which looked atrocious (previous owner let everything die) and replanted with a "tropical" theme in the front to match the rest of the neighborhood, and an "English garden" them in the back for my own piece of paradise...

    Cox versus ATT U-verse

    I had Cox for 3 years when I lived in South County. I now have AT&T in Corona, which I've had for 6 months. They're the only outfit where I live. I think Time Warner is starting to move in, but they're horrible. Overall service is good, haven't had any problems with my internet or TV. I think...

    Plantation Shutters

    I used House of Blinds in Laguna Hills for 3 reasons: 1. Yelp reviews 2. Price 3. I was trying to match existing plantation shutters, and out of 4 companies, they were the only ones that matched. I had a good experience overall and was impressed with their customer service. They didn't let...

    patio furniture

    Since summer is right around the corner (heh)... I bought a table, 6 chairs with pads, and a fire pit at Anaheim Patio during one of their sales. I went to the one at Tustin Marketplace. I really liked their selection, and they were willing to work with me on price. Great customer service as...

    kb home

    My friends bought in Primrose back in October, and they've been having issues with mold/dampness, strong odors around their home, and something structural (I think). KB has been to their home many times since November (when they moved in) to address these issues. KB doesn't have a good...
