This website has been a labor of love precisely because the formation of Core Home Improvement was a labor of love. As noted on other pages of this site, I launched Core in 2006 after spending more than 15 years in the telecommunications and software development industries. While I learned a lot during those years, I also felt that something was missing.
That “something” turned out to be the tangible result of a day’s hard work. To be sure in software development we still produce a product. But it then is disseminated to thousands or perhaps even millions of people and the results are never quite appreciated on the production side of things.
But in home improvement I’m there from inception to design, from production to walk-through inspection. I can run my finger along the tile and granite; can smell the wood and run the water. Most important, I can see the expressions of my delighted clients when their new kitchen or bathroom is completed. There is nothing quite so rewarding as knowing you have made a fundamental improvement in the lives of the people you serve.
Best of all, I have brought all those client services skills developed over years in the technology arena and put them to use in home improvement. The result is a client base stunned by all of the dedicated hand-holding; the attention to detail; the focus on organizational skills and corporate accountability. At Core we really do try to become a homeowner’s contractor for life.
I hope you enjoy the new site. We’ll keep making additions as time goes by and I encourage you to ping us with any feedback or recommendations.
