Nostalgic's Inc.
Santa Barbara, CA Specialty Contractors
July 11, 2013
“During the three days it took to put in the new fireplace, I did not feel taken advantage of and was very pleased with the work. Excellent work; was very thorough and professional.”
Willhite Grading & Excavation Inc
Santa Barbara, CA Specialty Contractors
November 8, 2015
“Mr.Willhite and his crew are consistently reliable and qualified to navigate any project. The ability to hire a company that has a perfectionist as it's owner gives us great piece of mind. Since Michael has an excellent sense of design and his job sites are immaculate he is a pleasure to work with. Our latest project with Willhite Grading involved removing 2 lawns and installing a dry creek bed. It came beautifully and we will certainly call Michael for the next project.”
