We have been grateful for Hammers service for 7 years now as we live between two homes and they give us enormous peace of mind for when we are away. They do periodic checks of our extensive grounds in addition to the interior of our home for any unexpected calamities such as a pipe breaking and flooding our basement, finding a king snake in the water heater closet, or as in this week's intruder. We received warning texts from our security company (separate from Hammers) that there was motion inside our home, which had set off the loud alarm inside the house. We immediately called Hammers from our desert home and they quickly dispatched someone to check on the house, which was pretty brave! When they got there they indeed found an intruder - a squirrel who had come down the chimney and made himself at home at our dining room table. The Hammers patrol person was able to humanely capture the squirrel and release it. Love these guys & gals! read more

My father and I have been using Ron Hammer Services for over 3 decades whenever we had an issue to be looked at or work to be done Ron and son's have been there for us. If you need a specialized contractor Hammer's Mountain Patrol knows of all the good one's to use. Ron has saved us on countless occasions over the years. We can always count on Ron and his professional staff which has never let us down. Respectfully, Bill Caldwell read more

They are not an honest company. We were in a rented Vrbo for the weekend and the place did not have hot water and the heat did not work correctly. Evolve the managing company called them to go out and Hammer Patrol said we would not let them in. They never came or called us, but told the managing company they did. We asked them to review the outside camera footage to prove they never showed up, but they refused. Awful weekend for our entire family. Incompetent company! read more

Ron and sons have been so helpful for this first time mountain homeowner. I cannot count the many times that I have called upon on them for various issues that got resolved by their professional, reliable, and personable way of taking care of things.. A big shout out for their support staff as well. I have called to ask advice on different occasions and have been met with nothing but support and kindness. I truly do not know what I would do without them in my corner. Thanks you guys for giving me more peace of mind!!!! read more

The crew at Hammer's Mountain Patrol has been very good to us. They're worth every penny of what they charge, and they go above and beyond. They've helped us with numerous things from big to small, and I can't recommend them highly enough. Thank you Joanie, Nikki, and Ron (and crew) for taking care of us! read more

I called Hammers Mountain Patrol when our SUV was stuck in snow at our Airbnb. Ultimately we were able to get the car out without using Hammers. However I will say they were so kind and helpful! I have their number saved in case I'll ever need their services!! read more

Hammers Mountain Patrol has been a miracle for us! They have helped me with every aspect of renting our mountain home from security to cleaning help. They make it possible for our guests to reach someone locally in an emergency and do pine needle cleanup, deck repairs and even snow removal! They really are my partner! I'd be lost without them! read more

If I could give zero stars I would. We called and spoke with Ron, the owner, and were told we were put on the schedule to have our access road plowed at 8:20 AM. He told us he would shoot to be there for before noon. Then we called at 1 PM and he told us he would be there in an hour and a half. He never showed up, never answered any of our phone calls, and never gave us a call back. We own a rental home and because the road was never plowed we ended up with guests snowed in and other guests who were supposed to check stranded and sitting in their car in the freezing cold having nowhere to go. To not even give us a heads up that they couldn't make it so we could find someone else is not only rude and inconsiderate, but dangerous in these conditions. DO NOT TRUST THESE PEOPLE!!!! read more

Ron and sons did a great job of removing snow from our property. More importantly, he said he would be up at our place in Lake Arrowhead at a specific time on the day before our arrival and he called me when he arrived exactly like he said he would. He gave me a reasonable estimate and proceeded to clear our driveway, stairs, and deck. He saved my husband hours of shoveling. Very professional, prompt, and aims to please. We had the complete opposite experience with Ron than Ashley L. from San Diego. Looking forward to dealing with him when the next winter advisory hits. read more

Ron and his staff have always been first rate at helping me. They got my long access road cleared out after one of the worst snowstorms in memory, regardless of the fact that I'm not on their list of recurring snowplow customers. I can always count on them to step in when my security alarm goes off, call arrange to get repairs done, and generally help make my life in these beautiful mountains the best experience it can be. read more

Last year, I contacted Hammer's Mountain Services from a referral given to me by a local real-estate agent when I was notified by the county re. my cabin's excessive weeds and pine needles, and it was a no-brainer to call when I was notified again this year. Both times Ron and his team completed the work perfectly and on time - better yet, his staff filed the notice with the county, offering peace of mind for me not to have to deal directly with the county. Ron has communicated through every step of the process, answers/returns phone calls and is precise with what is required and what was done. He and his team are responsive, honest, thorough and cost-effective. I will call only Hammer's Mountain Services for future tree/weed/needle work, and now that I know of what else they do, I will certainly contact them should any such need arise. Highly recommended. read more

I love that Hammers Services provides so many great services all in one place. Their office staff is very nice, helpful and knowledgeable! It is great to have a company on the mountain that is reliable and dependable for local and part-time residents! I would recommend both Hammers Mountain Patrol AND Hammers Mountain Services. read more

I've used Mountain Hammer Services for forest care work-2 years, removal of dead branches on my trees, widen a rain drain by the side of my front steps and for snow removal. Ron Hammer and his crew have always done excellent work for me. If you need to get a specific job done--keep them in mind--they are very versatile. read more

On Friday December 11th, my husband, myself and our cat rode up the mountain in a Toyota Camry w/o chains. We had no idea there was ice and snow on the roads that would cause being stuck. There was no snow patrol or signs. When we reach Grass Valley and made our left from Peninsula we immediately saw ice and snow - a lot blocking - but we manage to keep going until we came across a white Silverado truck that was stuck and blocking the road. Because we slowed down & stopped, our car became stuck. Naturally we didn't know what to do. We almost made it to the top of the incline near Brentwood Drive but with our cat we could not dare to walk with the cold air. And the fact (I have to admit) our cat is fat and heavy. I thought immediately that perhaps Ron Hammer would know what to do. He not only volunteered to find us and help us get home but most of all he gave me comfort and the feeling of being safe. It turns out that the driver of the truck had been drinking and his truck kept rolling back almost on top of us. Somehow the driver backed his truck down the road and started going up again and did make it. In between events he yelled out he only lived 100 years away. We backed up too and started back up the road and got going & arrived safely at home. The comfort of Ron staying in touch with us proves that he and his company will go beyond the call of duty for their clients (friends). I would highly recommend them - you could not be in better hands!! read more
