My home in SF was severely flooded due to a water main break. The City hired AGH to help get us back on our feet. They did an excellent job of communicating and getting the job done. They showed tremendous flexibility to get around various issues that came along the way. They went above and beyond to make sure we were satisfied with the work done. I would highly recommend them. The overall experience was excellent.

This is a long overdue review for Jack and the team from A Green Home. Back in December The City flooded our basement (long story that needs no re-telling here) and although I am mentally prepared for an earthquake, flooding took me by surprise and I didn't even know where to begin. Enter - Jack Salvato and his amazing team. Our basement was flooded, and Jack negotiated and worked through everything along with another amazing company, Ideal, who did the clean up.
Jack took the time to find out what we wanted and advised on what would work and what wouldn't with suggestions and ideas

I cannot say enough good things about Jack and his A Green Home construction crew! He did a fantastic job on my kitchen and dining room remodel and it came out more beautiful than I could have imagined. Of course his work is expert, but they made the process clean, organized and efficient. Jack and his team really go the extra mile and he made himself available for any questions I had about the project. He was also great working with our three small dogs who were on site for much of the construction. The kept the gates closed and made sure the dogs were safe during working hours. I just never

A Green Home was a dream come true. Jack and his team, Moe, hit a home run on our bath and kitchen remodel. Jack kept me informed and was clear on costs and time expectations. We will definitely use them again.
