Tim is great! We’ve had him out for several projects over the last 10 years. He did the electrical for our shop, wired our mini split, updated our electrical panel and altered it so we could safely plug in a small generator to the panel during an outage. There have been other projects those were just the most recent. There are a lot of projects that I will tackle but electrical is never one of them. Tim is a professional and excellent at what he does. We will continue to call him for electrical work.

Grandkids had a great time. Decent food and a better than normal beer selection to help pass the time watching kids bounce.

Such a great place for people who love golf and hanging out! My son is turning 16 so had a party there for him and it was the party dreams are made of! Food, golf, music and fun! I highly recommend this place! The staff were extremely kind and accommodating and the food was so good! So excited to have X Golf in town for future fun!

Great job!
We are delighted with our new paver driveway installed by Daniel and crew at Cascade Hardscaping. His work shows his expertise and eye for artistic detail. The neighborhood is elevated because of how our dream project turned out!

Had Powers Bath tear out tub and install new shower. Showed on-time, communicated what they were going to do and how long it would take. Took day and a half. Did a great job and Im really enjoying not having to step over tube anymore. New shower looks great.

RELIABLE,PROFICIENT, PERSONABLE
Jason showed up on time and got the job down efficiently and quickly and cleaned up afterwards. All the while being personable and professional. He went the extra mile to leave us some extra spacers and screws for an unrelated job we had going on.

I Wish I Had Found Webformix Sooner
I recently moved into a new home in Bend, Oregon, and signed up with an internet company I had not heard of before: Webformix. I only wish I had known about them sooner. They ROCK. The speed and reliability of the service are the best I have ever encountered. The internet itself is excellent, but what really sets Webformix apart is the company's GREAT attitude toward service. The staff is genuinely helpful, genuinely responsive, and genuinely super kind. That may sound simple, but it is not something I have often found in Bend, Oregon.... or really anywhere else in the United States. The people at Webformix seem to actually like helping people. Their service is immediate, and effective. I have honestly never seen anything quite like it. It almost seems too good to be true. But it is true. The internet service is the best I have ever had. The company is the best internet company I have ever dealt with. And, on top of all that, the price is lower than any internet service I have had before. Webformix has beaten every internet experience I have ever had, by a mile. It is excellent. I just want to spread the word and thank the company.

Reroof
Scott’s guys did a great job. As a exroofer myself (from years ago) I could tell they didn’t take any short cuts and clean up the area when they were done. Bob
