Hello Everybody


hi my name is Paul. im 23 years old. i live in havertown PA. i have been doing remolding for 7 years. i worked for one guy my hole time in the biz. i dont wanna act like im the man but im very good at what i do.

about 3 months ago my boss died from cancer and left the biz to me to run . now let me add that for the past three years ive been handling the jobs. for instance ive done all the work required to be done by us execpt plumbing and eletrical witch were subed out. also handled the customer and made sure thet the subs were on track. so i was the forman on the job for a while

well now that my boss has passed away i now need to take on more of the paperwork/pricing. now i dont know everything but i do know alot and alot of people are offering me work. if i dicide to not to run the biz i would have no problem getting a job. im fully lic. and insured to do everything but plumbing and eletrical.

but i feel that this is a good oppertunity for me. the business has been around for 33 years. the owner trusted in me to take care of everything while he spent months at a time in the hospital. he did all the pricing from his hospital bed. and his wife did all the paperwork (making sure everybody got paid and the checks got put in the bank) so i know this wont be easy but i think i can do this

so thats my story lol. i hope to get to know everybody and get some good info and to learn from people.
