When I came to the United States from Albania at 20 years of age with little to nothing, I wanted to build a business doing what I loved. I am so proud of what we have accomplished. I couldn’t have started this amazing company without my dedicated team of experts and loyal clients. We started small, handling many kitchen and bathroom remodeling projects and our work started getting more complex. In recent years, we have grown into a larger company because of the trust and long term relationships we have built in the area over the years, thanks to our commitment to quality. As we grow, we continue to strive to be the best in our field.
