An Important Note About Us

We aim to stop stuff from rolling downhill. What exactly does that mean? We strongly emphasize leaving each interaction, job site, situation, etc. better than when you found it. We prioritize customer service, positive fellow trade interaction, and quality.

Here’s the cheat sheet on being a team player, and therefore, how we prioritize tasks, jobs, projects, and goals while keeping the highest quality in mind:

CUSTOMER > TEAM > INDIVIDUAL

When in doubt, do what’s best for the customer, always prioritizing quality, then our team, and finally, yourself. This isn’t to say you have to meet unrealistic expectations. But, within the realm of reality and sanity, we should do everything we can to leave our customers feeling like they’re the most important part of our workday – not an afterthought or problem. Don’t agree to something when we’re not justifiably confident we can deliver. Look out for each other. Approach problems with a solutions-oriented mindset. That's what we live by.
