Proud To Serve At the Corporate Volunteer Work Day for George Mark Children’s House

 Proud To Serve At the Corporate Volunteer Work Day for George Mark Children’s House

The folks at George Mark Children’s House in San Leandro are the best of the best. Their entire mission is to provide exceptional palliative pediatric care, offering critical support for children (and their families) facing chronic or terminal illnesses. They were the first of their kind in the United States, and are passionate about seeing more facilities carry on a similar mission across the country.

When we get a chance to help these wonderful folks, we take it.

While we’ve had numerous opportunities to get involved and give back over the years, the flagship event is called the Corporate Volunteer Work Day. Several other companies get involved as well, sending teams to join forces and help with routine facility maintenance items.

Vincent, our Operations Manager, plays an integral role. He knows how to manage and coordinate projects like nobody else, and showed up early with John to make sure the stage was set for the painting projects we needed to accomplish. Rollers, trays, brushes, paint… All set out and ready to go.

"...the grounds at George Mark are brighter than usual.

Our corporate partners did a good job with all their painting tasks thanks to Vincent and John who were there to prep and help our volunteers all throughout the activities.

Thank you for providing us with much needed supplies and whatnot. MB Jessee’s assistance that day was so invaluable for this project!"

"George Mark’s grounds look spectacular! A huge thank you to everyone for helping to make the return of our Corporate Volunteer Work Day such a wonderful success, and for filling our cup with your collective energy and enthusiastic support of our mission.

A special shout out also to our friends at MB Jessee Painting, Serpico Landscaping, Starbucks, Alameda County Fire Department, and San Leandro Police Department for your incredible support year in and year out."

Customer Reviews

“Awesome work by highly experienced, professional painters. They were: Conscious about the amount of time it would take. Ours had a lot of pre-work and took 3 weeks. Accommodating when we added a few last-minute changes Understanding when a heatwave hit and we remove some of the plastic sheeting over windows, which they had to put back up the next day. Accessible, especially the on-site crew (Hi Jose & Victor!) -- always answering questions and checking in. The end result is a perfect paint job that makes our 94-year-old house look brand new. I would definitely hire MBJ again”

“It was a great experience working with MB Jessee. The crew was careful and thorough as they painted the house, sealed stucco cracks, repaired dry-rotted wood, stained the deck, etc. Robert, Gersson, Jose, and all of the people involved in the process from the estimate to the job completion were friendly and professional.”

— Mike C.

“The people at M.B. Jessee are great – from the painters to the office staff to Matt. Talk about leadership from the top.”

— Kevin Ames, Mark Becker Homes

“The kitchen looks NEW! You guys are amazing.”

“My entire experience with MB Jesse was very professional. The crew were very friendly and super accommodating of my ridiculous schedule and geriatric pets in the house. The finished product, which was pretty much my entire house, far exceeds my expectations. Would definitely work with them again!”

— Heather Jordan

“Richard and crew have been great, for sure. As much as I look forward to having the job done and my house back in order, I really enjoyed having them around. You should feel really good about how they represent your company.”

— Jessica Dodson

“Everyone I dealt with was nice, helpful, and very professional. The price was reasonable! (I didn't feel like I was getting the "San Francisco price." The attention to detail and work quality was excellent. They did what they said they would do in the exact timeframe they said they would do. Highly recommend!”

— Tim Tyson

“I loved working with M.B. Jessee from start to finish on a relatively small paint job that grew a bit. I felt in very good hands from the moment Matt Jessee came out to give me the estimate and talk about my job. He was very easy to talk to and he handled my changes very well. Then the actual work done by Rigoberto and Mario was impeccable. They were neat and meticulous and the paint job looks beautiful. I could not have asked for more and when I did, they accommodated me 100%. I will not hesitate to call M.B. Jessee again and to refer them to friends.”

— Nancy Kurkjian

“Just had MB Jessee paint the interior of our house and they did a wonderful job. They tackled some crazy wallpaper as well as painted some very high ceilings and walls. The whole process was quick and they did a great job! We are very pleased. I was also very impressed by the crew. They were very personable, kind and actually took pride in the work they were doing. In one of our conversations with the lead Ricardo, he actually told me he was very proud of how the rooms had turned out. I agree sir! It turned out great and it's not often you hear someone thinking of your home like they would theirs, and putting that level of work and quality into it. That made a huge difference in how I viewed this company. Ricardo, you were fantastic and thank you for the great job, we will be using you again.”

“Julie, by the way, I have never been so impressed with the service of a painting job before! It was like magical elves came and painted our walls without us having to do a thing! It looks amazing and just wanted to let you know how happy we are. Thanks”

“The finish on my kitchen cabinets had failed, becoming tacky and grimy around the handles. M B Jessee gave me a reasonable quote, far below some others, and did an outstanding job, striping the original varnish and refinishing with a new lacquer finish. The cabinets look like new. Work was done 1 day faster than estimated. The crew was extremely hard-working, considerate, and neat. Highly recommend M B Jessee.”

“Many thanks to Rigoberto and Damon and the extraordinary team who transformed my castle in the skies.They are magicians. I appreciate their work very much.”
