Estabrook has done a great job for us! Thank you! Be aware that in heavy multi day storm cycles,…read moreonce a day plowing from a service will not be enough, if you want to go out driving somewhere. So in those circumstances, you of course have to do some clearing work yourself. And if you want excellent road accessibility in winter, think about living in a home with a flat or nearly flat driveway. For best road accessibility, living on Northwoods (if you live in Tahoe Donner) is best, but you will experience more traffic and road noise.

Worst snow removal company experience ever…read more Christmas 2025 we were snowed in for days at a time. We'd wake up and have over a foot of snow in the driveway and a 3' berm at the street. We'd contact them to see when they were coming and they'd say "we already came at 2:30am". Well, that's great, but it's 9am now and our driveway isn't passable. After a few days of this, with our driveway not being passable, and them making midnight runs that don't actually help you in the morning, they charged us an extra $75, on top of the $2,300 season contract, to make our driveway passable for the first time in days. Then, a week or so later with the next snow, we had another foot in our driveway and they said "well, it rained most places in Tahoe Donner and we drove your street in the middle of the night and it wasn't that bad so we didn't bother to plow." I sent pics of the snow in my driveway, both fresh fallen and drifted, and they decided to cancel my contract in early 2026 rather than just do their job of plowing when it snows. If you live in the Bay Area and come up here every few weeks, they'll likely have your driveway clear for you when you happen to arrive. If you live up here, or rent your place out, find somebody else -- anybody else -- they want to take your money and make excuses for why they aren't driving their big fancy plows. Cancelling someone mid season is actually dangerous, too. There is no practical way to make other plans at the last minute, someone could need medical services etc., and it just shows their very low business ethics. Also, they say clearing the berm from the city plow isn't included. So, hope you like shoveling a 3' ice wall after a storm, because they say they're not going to come back and do it. Avoid at all costs.

I'm sure they are excellent mechanics. But they are horrible with people. Whether over the phone or…read morein person. Besides that, they are absolutely gouging prices. I simply wanted to purchase a mower deck belt. I knew exactly what size I needed. I called to see if they had it in stock and the guy fought tooth and nail to get me to give him make/model/serial number of the machine it was going on. Just being an absolute jerk about it. So I decided to just go in and buy it. Same dog and pony show. I said, please, just let me pay for the belt (as I needed it ASAP). He let me buy it and then stormed off into the back with a profanity laced, "It's not my___ fault if it ___ doesn't ____ work. NO RETURNS." It worked. It cost 4 times as much as the exact same brand and size on the internet. I will NEVER step foot in that store again. Ask the locals. Ask the guys next door at ACE hardware. You'll hear the same things I'm saying.

If you're looking for a marine (or other) canvas company that truly delivers, I can't recommend…read moreTahoe Canvas enough. Heather and her team did an outstanding job designing and building a brand-new Bimini top for our boat. The craftsmanship and attention to detail are exceptional--the fit is absolutely perfect, the materials are top quality, and the finished product looks like it came straight from the factory. What impressed me just as much was the customer service. Heather was professional, responsive, and incredibly easy to work with throughout the entire process. She kept us informed every step of the way and somehow completed the project in record time without sacrificing quality. It's rare these days to find a company that combines outstanding craftsmanship, excellent communication, fair pricing, and lightning-fast turnaround, but Tahoe Canvas does exactly that. We couldn't be happier with the result and will absolutely use them again for any future canvas / upholstery work. Five stars isn't enough. Thank you, Heather and the entire Tahoe Canvas team, for exceeding our expectations!
