The Best of the North Bay’s unsung service industry
The service industry is the backbone of the North Bay. It’s the quiet force that keeps our economy humming, our homes intact, our cars running, and—let’s be honest—our sanity somewhat preserved. While other sectors get the glitz and glam, it’s the service professionals who prevent us from careening into full-blown chaos.
Think about it: Where would we be without Holman Plumbing, for example, making sure we don’t have to turn our kitchen sinks into accidental fountains? Or Sonoma County Comfort Heating & Air, ensuring that we don’t suffer an existential crisis every time the temperature dares to fluctuate? And let’s not forget Peace Out Junk, the heroes who make all those “I should really clean out the garage” moments actually happen.
Of course, it’s not just about function—it’s also about the little luxuries. Flamingo Resort & Spa in Santa Rosa provides the kind of escape that makes you forget about your inbox for a blissful moment. E.R. Sawyer Jewelers reminds us that some things can be fixed (even if it’s just your favorite necklace, not your life choices). Meanwhile, W Real Estate helps locals and newcomers alike navigate the ever-elusive art of finding a home in Wine Country.
And let’s not forget the behind-the-scenes pros who keep businesses running smoothly. West County Net helps keep local companies visible and thriving in the digital world, Sprint Copy Center ensures branding looks as sharp as the businesses themselves and Suited Hospitality knows that the right choices can turn a great idea into a household name.
From the experts keeping our finances in check to the ones making sure our final send-offs are handled with dignity, the service professionals of the North Bay make life run just a little bit smoother. And for that, we tip our hats (which may even have been purchased at one of the region’s fine boutiques).
