I am a natural connector of people so, it was to no one’s surprise that I have created this page for my business.
Remodeling is a relationship-based business. There are those that I love to work with together to remodel homes and all the things that go along with that. Let’s face it we live in a wonderful community that has nearly everything we need to survive and prosper. Naturally there are those that I want to work with more than others. Please make no judgments about those that are not on the list and are not promoted here.
The internet, although robust, is not a replacement for local vendors and supplies. I encourage you to please think long and hard before you hit the “place your order button”. Supporting our local economy is important. That being said, I use the internet too when I can’t find what I am looking for. With luck, this page will offer some helpful information.
Why is he sharing this precious information?
This page is designed to be a self-guided tour for those that need a little help or are “Outa-Towners” moving in from parts unknown. This is a tool for my friends and acquaintances to use without interrupting me.
The page will grow and shrink over time. As we refine the list feel free to make recommendations to me. Remember “it is my list, not yours”, so I have the say-so as to who I chose to promote. Just because your favorite place or fella that fixes stuff is not on the list means nothing. Thanks, The management.
Examples of how it works
Seen on Facebook, My AC is dead 🙁 it’s up in the 80″s inside! help, I need a recommendation! I cast the line “I got a guy for that…” I was not only able to get it fixed the same day but for less than a typical HVAC response fee. That included parts! Now that’s what I am talking about!
All I want in return is…
All I want in return is some feedback. Rather than having to ask, I have done my job by referring those that I do business with in most cases and that I love. your job is to get me feedback on them. Tell um ” Joe Levitch, at Levco sent you”, then get back to me with a review. Pretty simple, but oh so very very important. (Do not skip the feedback part!) You can help to get this referral network really rolling.
How do I get on the list?
