Professional Organizers in San Ramon

“Karen is very talented. She is an excellent listener and truly understands our clients needs. She is patient, thorough and has a knack for streamlining systems. She makes the organization process fun! We have referred many of our clients to Karen and they have been thrilled with the end result. I can't say enough good things about Karen. I have also used her for my own home - closets and garage and there is nothing better than feeling like everything has it's place.”

“Here’s something As someone who has experienced the stress of moving several times, I can confidently say that Extensive Home Solutions has completely transformed the way I view the moving process. From the initial consultation to the moment the last box was unpacked in my new home, they made what is typically an overwhelming and chaotic experience into a seamless and surprisingly pleasant experience.”

“Tara was a cheerful and effective organizer. She helped me plan my move, organize my possessions for the move, and most importantly, dispose of stuff I no longer need. Amazing how much junk one can accumulate! - She helped me purge a lot of that!”

“My husband and I highly recommend Joby Aranda. We have worked with her several times and have been more than pleased at every turn. Joby first organized our garage and when she was finished, I couldn't believe it!!. Everything was organized, categorized and labeled! She all also took away unused and unwanted items and lots of trash. The second time we used her, she found a person to build slide out shelves for our cabinets. They were so deep that it was hard to see what was in the back. Once the shelves were done, she organized all our office supplies in one set of drawers (see the photo.and organized electronics and miscellaneous in the other. And she helped organized our. new spice drawer. At her next visit, the task was to make our office workspace more usable. We we sharing an old dining room table as a workspace, and the two of us were always complaining about the other using our space. We only had one chair so couldn't be in the office at the same time.She suggested we build a desk on one side of our office wall.... and recommended a vendor to work with. The results were fantastic and both of us are super pleased (at least we will be as soon as my. office chair arrives. You can't go wrong with Joby!”

“In order to get the most out of your living space, you need to be able to see the forest for the trees. ShipShape is expert at cutting through the clutter: creating systems for storing all the flotsam and jetsam one can't seem to live without, finding a home for the necessary detritus of modern life, and helping to purge the non-essentials that seem to proliferate all on their own (in an environmentally acceptable way). They are great for one-time projects as well as ongoing maintenance, because—if you're like our family—the road to hell is paved with good intentions.”

“I selected ALB Designs for a major remodel on a 1930's San Francisco home. The remodel included (ultimately) the kitchen and bathroom upstairs, a new connecting stairway downstairs, and new finished space downstairs (hall, laundry, utility room) to connect to a downstairs suite. ALB Designs provided architectural services, design services, and to some extent, project management services. Anne Laird-Blanton (architect) gave me multiple options based on our conversations. After much time (it took me 2 years to decide!) I finally landed on one option and the work could begin. Anne listened to me and the ultimate design reflected my desire with the added benefit of her creative and practical solutions. It can be overwhelming to pick out all the fixtures, fittings, colors, etc. and ALB Designs helped me by making suggestions or narrowing down my choices to 2 or 3. The result is a remodel that reflects my style, but is more polished and cohesive than I could have managed on my own. ALB Designs also helped me select - and manage - the contractor. It speaks volumes that we're all still speaking at the end! I hear horror stories from other people about their contractor, so I feel very lucky that she guided me to a very reliable professional who's work ethic matches hers. With projects of this size there are always surprises. When the kitchen was gutted, the contractor realized that it was a few inches larger than expected. Without even asking, Anne modified the plans to give me the pantry that I wanted, but hadn't been able to fit in before. This is just one example of her responsiveness, and the importance of having an architect who collaborates well with the contractor and client.”

“I hired Lucy last year after I found out that I was pregnant. Doing an extreme clean out/organization session had been on my list of things to do for a few years...and I knew that it wasn't going to happen any time soon on my own. I soon hired Lucy and I was so glad I did! Lucy was very methodical of how/where we should start. She was very honest and pushed me to really think about what I was keeping and why. We would separate everything into three items (1) garbage (2) goodwill (3) consignment. At one point there were 25 bags in my garage to bring to good will! Lucy and I would work together on weeknights in three hour sessions. She was always very prompt and was willing to stay longer if we were in the middle of making some good progress. My husband and I ended up buying a house soon after Lucy and I had made our way through organizing my home, and I always talk about how much I likely saved in moving costs since I had got rid of so much stuff in my organizing process! Lucy was also great in suggesting great ways to store/organize items. Once we were all moved into our new home, Lucy came over to help me organize our kitchen and a couple of areas in our house. I rave all the time about how great working with Lucy was and how it made me feel so much better about my move, and my home now!”

“Ken is great. Eager to please and easy to understand drawings. Great quality work. High standards. Job was completed on time. Amazing.”

“Maribel and her team were so efficient and formal. I was a little embarrassed to show her our pantry and closets as they were a nightmare! But she was so understanding and accommodating to what we wanted and literally changed our lives for the better! If you are looking for a well experienced professional that is creative, personable, and honest, look no further!”
