I'll tell you what, I couldn't be more impressed and more grateful after getting off a phone call…read more A phone call that I was EXTREMELY LUCKY this gentleman in particular even picked up. As the Saturday wore on and all three of the companies I called to get Homeowners Insurance with a Renter Property Insur Policy Packet quotes from ALL went to VM. I did my due diligence and made a short list of 4 companies to call, checking each name prior to calling 1) Proximity to the property/us 2) Better Bus Bureau rating 3) Yelp rating. The 4th and last phone call actually was one that made the list on all three counts! AND the owner of the company answered the phone himself at 3:30 pm on a Saturday. Rob Salvo of Mt. Diablo Insur answers! Instead of blowing smoke up my wazoo and gladly telling me he would love to take my business, he gave me the honest down and dirty. Telling me what was going on in the industry currently, THAT I SHOULD STAY PUT and here's why. Information that was 5,000 percent invaluable. In less than 15 minutes he, convinced me NOT to move my policy to another company and why, wait 6 months to revisit when the industry has likely ironed out these problems, be thankful my current provider has renewed us, and how to solve the LLC issue that was forcing me to change in the first place, not only THAT, but to call him back if I had trouble getting my current provider to add the LLC endorsement and he'd help me with that too!! Color me flabbergasted! All out of the graciousness and kindness of his heart. There was nothing in this phone call for him. And I will remember this for the rest of my life and tell 100 people to call Mt. Diablo Insurance because you will get honesty, fairness, loyalty and exceptional business. Thank you Rob Salvo. You made a believer out of me. You had better believe Mt. Diablo will be my first phone call in 6 months down the road.

Bill Stoll has been my insurance agent through Steven Hom Insurance Services for about three years…read morenow and has been nothing short of excellent. He always has reassured me that my wife and I were in good hands when it came to auto/renter insurance. With the highest level of professionalism and integrity, Bill continually takes the time to educate us on policy details and how the process works. The reason I write this review is to convince you all to stick with Bill and Steven Hom Insurance Services. Since I will be attending nursing school full-time pretty soon, my wife and I were looking at a number to save more money since I won't be working for the next couple years. Although rates at Steven Hom Insurance are extremely reasonable, my wife gets an incredibly cheaper rate through her work in public education which can't be found in the general market. Unfortunately we'll be switching insurance providers simply because we need to save money any way we can for the time being, but not because of a lack in quality. No No No Not at all! Steven Hom Insurance agents are the best in the market! And this isn't goodbye. Once I'm done with nursing school and find work, I plan to consider Bill once again. YOU ROCK BILL!

We were in a challenging situation trying to secure a personal umbrella policy due to having a young driver and a prior at-fault accident, and our previous carrier was canceling our umbrella. I was speaking with a couple of agencies at the same time, and Jeff was by far the most responsive, proactive and resourceful. He clearly put in the effort to find a solution that actually worked for our situation, and he explained everything in a clear and straightforward way. He was able to put together a strong package for auto, home, and umbrella coverage with the right liability limits, and made the process smooth from start to finish. We're really happy and appreciative. I actually found Jeff through a Google search, and I honestly feel lucky that I did. If you're looking for an agent who is efficient, thorough, and looks out for your best interest, I highly recommend Jeff.

Used to be amazing but ever since my first experience back in 2020 I've had to actively reach out…read moreto them to remind them that my renewals were coming up and asking them to shop rates. For my 2023 policies, my homeowners insurance carrier stopped offering policies in CA, and I was forced to switch over to another provider. I made the switch through Stone Creek but they never notified my mortgage lender of my new policy / carrier, so the lender thought I didn't have a policy and charged me for one of theirs. It took 6 months before I noticed and had to work with them to get a refund. My renewals for 2024 are actually coming up in less than 2 weeks and I have yet to receive any updates despite multiple attempted reach outs to my account manager (Robin). Ironically, I've been trying to get in contact with her for over a week (called and left a voicemail, left messages with two different receptionists) and it was only after I posted this review that I received an email from her. I shopped quotes with the same carriers directly, and am getting lower quoted rates, so at this point between the total radio silence and the higher cost of doing business with Stone Creek, I'm uncertain what SCIA's value add is. Ultimately, I ended up switching over to Jeff Wong out of Bencia and ended up saving $600 / year on my homeowners insurance alone with same carrier (Mercury). I swapped my Umbrella policy over as well, but kept my auto insurance as is as the carrier (Oregon Mutual) was still the best option.

But lately customer service is horrible. Sure, they respond quickly when you say you want to open a new policy for something. But have a question? Need other assistance? Just crickets. I think they had major turnover since the height of the pandemic and nobody seems to be local anymore. When I do talk with anyone, it's always a different person from out of state. Worse of all, when I sold a rental property and requested to cancel the policy, they cancelled the WRONG policy and I went almost 6 months with my home not being insured! I didn't realize it until much later of course because every single time I asked them to confirm my policies, they never responded. It's time to find a new broker. So sad because they used to be fantastic.

The level of service is truly white glove from start to finish. In a world where it's nearly impossible to reach a real person, Nathan's Team is responsive, proactive, and incredibly knowledgeable. When we have a question, we get a clear answer quickly. When something needs attention, it gets handled. No chasing, no call centers, no confusion. There is something incredibly valuable about working with a local agent who knows you, understands your situation, and actually cares about protecting your family and assets. We feel confident knowing our coverage is thoughtful, coordinated, and reviewed regularly not just set and forgotten. If you're looking for an insurance agent who combines expertise with personal service, Nathan and his team is it. Highly recommend.
