My Name is Patrick

I started apprenticing with my dad Georges when I was a teenager, but even before that I was watching him work all the time.

My grandfather established our company in 1964, back when we specialized in painting. Dad picked up new trades, which made me learn more and use various sorts of tools. By working closely with my dad, I developed my own way to repair/build/create things. But the great thing is that I always try to get better and learn more.

I’ve been serving the East Bay Area since 2016.

You would wonder “why only since 2016 while he has over 25+ years of experience?” Well, as much as I love creating and building many things with my hands, I actually started my career by earning a Ph.D. in Microbiology and followed with 2 post-doctorates at the University of California at Berkeley. Well, life is always full of surprises and one day, early in 2016, I decided to get back to my first love: working on building things with my hands.

Me when I was in my Ph.D. That day I was transferring bacteria from tubes to tubes.

Then…

Me now, fixing a falling fence to accommodate a falling tree !
