In December of 1994 I was driving home on a little two-lane Highway and an 18-wheeler pulled out in…read morefront of me. He had no lights on his trailer so I didn't see him until he was about 50 feet away. I went under the trailer and hit the axle at around 45 mph suffering head trauma among other things. My life was forever changed. Assessing the damage still years later it was found I lost the ability to organize things around me and remember what I had. I tended to keep things out in the open so I could see it every day and take an account of what I had. Then I moved in with my entire household of stuff into my grandmother's home which was also full of stuff. To make matters worse I had become a bit of a shopaholic after my accident. I could never remember what I bought so I bought it 4 and 5 times over in many cases. I was tripping over boxes and furniture and my family or friends would no longer come inside to visit. My mom did some research and hired Randi Lyman of A Helping Hand. She couldn't have picked a better person to help me. Randi is very considerate and a positive force even in my life today. She is so supportive and in no way looks down on you regardless of your situation. She is so compassionate and incredibly professional. My house is now organized and de cluttered. She helped me make decisions where my thought processes had broken down. I can't thank her enough for what she did. I was also imbued with her thought processes for making decisions about buying and also organizing what I already have. So as new things come in, old things go out and the new stuff is organized. I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone who needs help regardless of your situation. Thanks again Randi! You are one of the finest people I know!

She was so much fun to work with - so personable, not too serious yet still very professional, and was genuinely interested in my actual life. She even wanted to meet my 8 guinea pigs, hee-hee - it was so awesome that she is also an animal lover, and has a big heart for animals (kiss-kiss for Julie from Auntie Jackie!). Randi also made a huge effort even before our first appointment to understand exactly what I was needing, and asked me to send her some photos that were both fun and also pertaining to what I used the room we would be working on for (i.e. that showed what kinds of items I make in my sewing and craft room). I call myself a mini hoarder, especially when it comes to fabrics and crafts, and she was so patient and non-judgmental towards me. It's very reassuring as well to know that she has so many years of experience working with other adults with ADHD. She snuck in some helpful gems of how to stay organized as we were working through our 3 hours without me really realizing it, but that info sunk in. Only a day after working with her, I found myself looking at a few lamps in that and another room and thinking, "I can donate those - I can let them and tons of other things like those go, and it will make my life much easier and less stressful to let them go. We're not even using them or haven't for 6 years!" She was very inspiring and working with her made me excited to do more, not only in that room but in the rest of the house. I would highly, highly recommend her!

A Perfect 10 Stars…read more Closet Connection has exceeded every expectation I had, and I cannot say enough amazing things about my experience. From the moment the owner, Jack, walked through my door, I knew I was in good hands. He was personable, patient, and incredibly understanding of my upcoming wedding and the resources I had to work with. During our consultation, he thoroughly explained every detail of the project and made sure I understood exactly what I was getting. Jack understood the assignment. He designed my dream garage right before my eyes, providing a layout that included everything I needed for a clean, organized, and functional space. He didn't rush, didn't pressure, and was the only vendor who created a full design on the spot and went over the pricing without hesitation. That level of transparency and confidence sealed the deal for me. I also want to give major kudos to my installers, Joe and Dale. They were exceptionally professional, walked me through every step of the installation, and handled the project with skill and care. Their work ethic and attention to detail truly brought Jack's vision to life. Jack, we had an instant connection--you made me feel like a Queen in my castle, and now I have a garage that matches the feeling. I am beyond elated with the final result. Closet Connection is highly recommended, worth every dollar, and absolutely deserving of 10 stars!

The peace of mind we now have from being able to utilize more of our vertical space and stay organized, has already been life-changing! Thank you, Closet Connection!!! Original review: We have not yet started our project, but so far our experience with Jack has been wonderful! He came over to do our consultation and was very thorough with measurements, the discussion of our needs/desires, giving us his expert opinions and creating a beautiful 3D design. He did not pressure us to give him an answer that day and only requested a response within the week to get the best deal. He encouraged us to get other quotes. Not only did Jack give the lowest quote, he was the only consultant that left the designs along with the quote to let us have time to think. From our discussions, it appears that he uses better materials than some other places, and offers a lifetime warranty. We look forward to getting our closets done next month and will provide an update.

You can't make a silk purse from a sow's ear. I think that would have been a good analogy for my…read moreparticular project. I had a storage space that was an absolute nightmare which I needed to get a handle on in preparation for an impromptu out of state move. Spruce Goose's own Jennifer and Kristen came to the rescue. They each worked about five hours straight non-stop, organizing, labeling, sorting, etc. A particularly challenging aspect concerning this job is that the space was very confined and limited so it was like trying to solve and manipulate a giant Rubik's cube. The weather didn't help matters, but that was no deterrent to these gals--they pushed thru like real troopers. They were both very professional and worked efficiently without judgment. Wished I could have had them each another 5 hours or more as this was a particularly big and convoluted job--sorting through years of accumulated items, clothing, tools, supplies, and personal treasures all out most of which were in disarray. The end result, while not totally completed due to time and other constraints was nonetheless satisfactory. My main reluctance to the possibility of using Spruce Goose again would be that their rate$ are very high in my opinion--but then again, if I factor in the value I place on my personal time I suppose they are worth the extra premium! I could have handled this job myself but the emotional and energetic toll extracted would have been significant.

They prefer clients who have no opinions, don't push back on anything they say, and don't question any of their billing processes which are shady and unclear. What they quote and promise and what they deliver are very different things. I was made big promises in the beginning, and was consistently let down and disappointed. We didn't work well together (mostly because I had my own opinions), which was fine, but at the end of the contract when I let them know I was disappointed and didn't wish to continue using their services I was called ungrateful and rude. I paid for a service and was unsatisfied, I have every right to walk away and the temper tantrum was unnecessary and unprofessional.
