We purchased a $3000 trash compactor (I know, we're idiots) to replace our 10-year-old trash…read morecompactor. We were assured that it was the top of the line, so without seeing anything in person, we took the word of the sales manager and ordered it. Once it was installed (by the installer they set up for us) it was immediately evident that it was "rickety" at best. It was also an eyesore, with bright, plastic looking chrome on the handle which would have been impossible to see from the tiny thumbnail across the counter we looked at before agreeing to purchase (totally on us). But more importantly it wasn't stable. It rattles horribly when you open it. It rattles horribly when you close it. And it moves all around inside of its compartment. When we contacted the store, complete with video, we were told "no refunds," which was never disclosed during the purchase process. The receipt is emailed to you with the disclosure after you purchased the item and leave the store. The response from the manager was that this was the highest quality trash compactor on the market, despite the videos showing the contrary. He said maybe the install was dome incorrectly but his installer, who is very nice, told us that was the best he could do, so it was basically too bad for us. Buyer beware.

Responded promptly to my initial contact, through multiple visits and calls (I am an engineer) worked with me (lots of knowledgeable suggestions and recommendations but never pushing anything on me) to come up with the system best for my needs. Ended up at the low end of four bids from HVAC contractors. Complete replacement of old HVAC system with state of the art heat pump system, removed all of the old duct work and installed the new system with meticulous attention to detail, making sure everything was just right. At the end of the week, a bit sad to see him go. That's when you know you have the right person looking out for you. I would use SB Heating and Air 100 times before even thinking about looking elsewhere. You can't go wrong here.

Avoid this place -- premium rent, poor living conditions, and unfair management…read more I lived in a so-called premium Apartment E and paid one of the highest rents in the complex, yet the living conditions were terrible. The unit was a heat trap with no fan or proper ventilation, even though other units in the complex do have fans. I often felt suffocated. Management was informed and took no action. The apartment is located near the parking area, and the unit was constantly full of dust no matter how often I cleaned. There was also frequent management and maintenance noise around Apartment E, making the "premium" label misleading. The toilet clogged almost every week, even with very light and normal use. This was a recurring issue that was never properly resolved. Before moving out, I wiped down all furniture surfaces, and the unit was left in good condition. Despite this, I was charged 5.5 hours of "general cleaning" for a studio apartment, which is completely unreasonable. Carpet cleaning was not even counted in that 5.5 hours. I formally requested a pre-move-out inspection, asked to be present, and requested 48-hour notice. None of this was honored. When I went to the office on a weekday before move-out, it was closed without notice, so I was never given a chance to address any concerns in advance. The cleaning was done about 10 days after I moved out, raising concerns that the hours charged reflect dust accumulation over time rather than my move-out condition. When I questioned this, management pushed responsibility onto the cleaning company instead of explaining or correcting the charge. After that, management stopped responding. Even returning the undisputed portion of my security deposit was delayed and required repeated follow-ups. High rent, poor living conditions, constant issues, and unfair deposit practices. Avoid this place and rent elsewhere.

With prompt texting, Ilya came to the property on time to provide options and rough pricing for each.

Although the client will unfortunately be going in a different direction, I plan on calling upon him again for any masonry issues/inspections/estimates I that are needed by my other clients. Masonry in Santa Barbara is an elegant craft and a niche specialty. It is best to call upon a true professional to have masonry repairs done right.
