This newsletter is part of a fresh branding platform and graphic identity that resulted from a three-month study to help us better understand our achievements, client experiences and strategic direction. With help from many of you, we came away from this valuable exercise with a renewed passion in our business and a firm understanding of who we are and the value we provide our customers. Now, with new processes in place to ensure we live our brand promise and a graphic identity that better aligns with who we are, we are excited to live out our mission and continue to serve you. Please know that your feedback is welcome at any time. We hope you continue to share your thoughts and experiences with us.

For Ann Murray of Beverly Hills, these points of frustration were the catalyst to a complete remodeling makeover that resulted in new custom kitchen, mudrooom, laundry room and third car garage.
