Jeff Campbell, owner of Jeff Campbell Construction, lives by that philosophy as he works closely with
homeowners to generate the results they desire. His team is dedicated to providing their discerning clientele with personalized service, dedication, customized designs, and attention to detail that is essential for success.

“We work with our clients every step of the way,” explains Jeff Campbell, a general contractor specializing in remodeling homes in Los Angeles for the past 22 years. “I help homeowners through the vast array of decisions during the construction process and I’m there by their side the whole time. My team and I even provide maintenance services once the project is complete.”

A few of the advantages of working with a team that can handle the entire construction project include:

• - By keeping the client’s budget guidelines in mind from the beginning, a one-stop shop approach can create a plan for clients that not only beautifully interprets their needs and wants, but also suits their finances.

• - The customer-oriented fusion of construction expertise offers homeowners greater savings and greater control over the final outcome.

• - By streamlining the entire process, the timeframe from design to completion is significantly reduced.

• - A “one-stop shop” method gives clients one point of contact and a single source of accountability.

• - The close relationship developed during the project facilitates better communication and gives clients a better sense of security.

Jeff Campbell Construction’s expansive resources and knowledge along with a record of satisfied clients have earned him respect and success in the Los Angeles construction industry. “I have a highly skilled and qualified team of subcontractors I’ve worked with for decades that allows me to provide my clients with the absolute best in new construction, whole house remodels, kitchen and bathroom renovations, and much more.”

“I want to be easy to work with,” said Daniel Patrick Donohue, owner of Oak Knoll Woodworking. “I am a make it happen kind of person, I can be flexible to help people out, if they need to add a foot to the wall, or need 3 more weeks, I can warehouse my work until they are ready.”

Oak Knoll Woodworking’s new website, www.okwoodworking.com will give contractors an opportunity to see the quality cabinet construction of Oak Knoll and find a capable and experienced cabinet maker. Their goal is to provide continual service to repeat customers and general contractors.

“From new home construction to remodels, I want to be the go to guy in cabinet making. I believe in building good relationships with general contractors, said Daniel.  Daniel previously owned companies in Sacramento and Portland, but traded them in for the friendly, laid back feel in Klamath Falls.  While his “get it done” work ethic meets fast paced, big city expectations, his friendly, relaxed and positive demeanor, appeal to contractors. “I will make it happen, I will not hold up a contractor’s schedule,” said Daniel.

Some of the services Oak Knoll Woodworking provides includes, kitchen cabinet building and installing, bathroom cabinets and custom entertainment centers.

Kitchen cabinets make up the majority of a kitchen remodeling budget. They are a major investment and should be long lasting. With the weight of heavy plate ware and the repeated use, durability is a key factor in purchasing kitchen cabinets. Oak Knoll Woodworking uses a high quality variety of woods such as, oak, maple, cherry and even exotic woods for a homeowner’s custom kitchen cabinets.

Custom bathroom cabinets provide homeowners an opportunity to tailor cabinets to their specific needs. Every bathroom is a different style and size; bathroom cabinets make a big impact on the style of the bathroom. Whether a homeowner is looking for a vanity cabinet, under sink storage or bathroom shelving, Oak Knoll Woodworking can design cabinets for the functionality and space needed in the bathroom.

Custom entertainment centers, give homeowners exactly what they need instead of spending hours searching for shelving that will fit all their media components. With the variety of electronics on the market today, it can be difficult to find an entertainment center to satisfy a homeowner’s specific needs. Oak Knoll Woodworking can build a unit to fit into a homeowner’s space. They are not limited to entertainment centers, “I have made furniture, chairs, even church pews, we are not limited,” said Daniel.

Oak Knoll Woodworking offers a 1 year warranty on their products. “It is rare that I ever have to go back but for repairs, but I want my customers to have a good feeling when they think about working with me, I don’t want to jeopardize a relationship,” said Daniel.

Peter Hughes, owner of Renaissance Interior Design, wholeheartedly agrees with that statement. A true entrepreneur, his passion for transforming his client’s visions into reality is a compelling force that brings vitality to ideas, inspires confidence, and ensures success. “A client once told me that I was an artist,” Peter says. “That’s the best compliment of all.”

With all the interior design companies available, choosing the right one can seem like a daunting task. Of course, homeowners should review a portfolio of past work, ask about a designer’s experience and credentials, and get references. However, in order to find an interior designer they truly love homeowners should look for certain qualities.

Interior designers who are passionate about their work will educate their clients about all the possibilities and help those who may not know how to express their style. Yet more is needed to discover the uniqueness of every client.

“The design process should not be a designer telling the client what to do or a one-sided conversation, but an exchange of ideas going back and forth,” Peter explains. “Good designers will listen twice as much as they talk. Early collaboration and involvement with the client along with an open mind is important.”

A homeowner should feel comfortable asking questions, expressing their needs and desires, and explaining budget constraints. A relaxed and open relationship with an interior designer who is responsive to a homeowner’s requirements is essential. A qualified designer should also help clients consider important design questions carefully and define their project.

“I advise my clients to put together a scrapbook and the process becomes fun,” Peter suggests. Before the design process begins homeowners should consider questions such as what are their likes and dislikes, what inspires them, what activities will take place in the room, what is their timeline and budget, and what modifications and changes do they want to make?

Peter feels that everyone deserves an environment uniquely their own and interior design services should be available to all, not just the wealthy. “I don’t turn anyone away,” he says. “We can find the right solutions to meet the design needs, wants, and budget of any client.”

Currently, most companies are not receiving attention for their generosity and strong corporate values, quite the opposite. People read stories and hear of greed and excess casting yet another organization in the spotlight and dampening hopes that the business culture in the US is adopting ethical values as a framework for how they do business.

PollyBro Home Remodeling understands the importance of giving. For them, it is not just a nice concept, but a way of life and the foundation for how they conduct their business. They get in touch with the heart of their customers by giving back. “If any of our clients mention a health issue that touches their family, we give to that organization in honor of our customers, we do it for our clients,” said Andrew Parrott, owner of PollyBro Home Remodeling.

On a regular basis, brothers Matt and Andrew Parrott owners of PollyBro, give a donation to a charity that has recently impacted one of their clients. Last month the company donated $250 to the Muscular Dystrophy Association, an organization committed to researching ALS, along with other related muscular diseases.  They have also been generous to The Children’s Miracle Network, an organization supporting improved healthcare for millions of children around the world.

PollyBro has a core set of values their company has adopted to create an ethical and honorable business. Values like integrity, accountability, commitment and a sense of responsibility to their community. “These values are the fundamentals for a quality life and the key to a successful business strategy,” said Andrew.

Matt and Andrew both served in the United States Marine Corps. Andrew served two tours of duty in Iraq. He and his brother wanted to find a way to continue serving their fellow servicemen. So they began making quarterly company donations to The Wounded Warrior Project. This organization is committed to honor and empower wounded service men and women. “We know the donations to The Wounded Warrior Project benefit military families and our fellow servicemen and women,” said Andrew.

“In order to maintain a good relationship with clients, contractors must be willing to devote time with the customer,” said Joel Portillo, owner of Joel & Co. Construction.

Joel is a second generation general contractor. As he worked for his father and uncle he met several people inquiring about a reliable, trustworthy, and efficient general contractor. After hearing about the unfortunate experiences homeowners were having with builders, Joel decided to attend school and become a licensed builder.

“Make sure clients are involved in the process and that time is being taken to communicate with them,” advises Joel. Customers should be treated with respect and patience. Be polite and make the time to listen to their concerns, thoughts and ideas.

“Customers trust us with their homes, so we should try to treat their homes like we would want our homes treated. Try to cause as little disturbance as possible,” said Joel. This requires contractors and the crew to clean up when they leave and keep the project site as organized as possible.

“Recognize every project is unique. Details are important from conception to completion,” explains Joel. No job should be treated as a cookie cutter project.

Word of mouth is the best advertisement a company can receive. The web provides an outlet for homeowners to voice their opinions and experiences with service providers. A general contractor should be concerned about the kind of reputation their company has in the community. “A good reputation translates into good business,” said Joel.

“Do not fool yourself,” says Welch, “Latex paints are not harmless. They contain volatile organic compounds (VOC), which can be damaging to the health of your brain. Even in low concentrations, they have been shown to cause memory loss, fatigue, dizziness, confusion, and even depression.” Welch says he has experienced most of those symptoms during his 10-year career as a painter.

Indeed, both short and long term exposure to these fumes can and will most likely affect you in a variety of ways, which are more serious than often expected. As the American Lung Association has reported, “VOC’s can produce a number of physical problems such as: eye and skin irritation, lung and breathing problems, headaches, nausea, muscle weakness and liver and kidney damage.”

Alarmingly, typical household paint contains up to 10,000 chemicals, of which 300 are known toxins and 150 have been linked to cancer.  Some of the most harmful chemicals found in paint are VOCs.

With this in mind, Eric Welch Painting is announcing that his company will be switching to zero-VOC paints on all indoor residential projects and low- to zero-VOC paints on all exteriors. “I’m going to do what needs to be done to ensure that the risks inherent in latex paint are no longer an issue,” says Welch. “It will be safer for me and my employees, and it will also be safer for the homeowners and their families.”

Many manufacturers offer paints without VOCs, including Sherwin-Williams Harmony and Benjamin Moore, Eco-spec. These paints also have significant convenience advantages: they dry quickly and barely give off an odor, allowing the building to return to use shortly after painters finish their work.

Eric Welch Painting will begin using zero- and low-VOC paints immediately. Please check them out on BuildZoom.

Typically, the insurance company offers you a settlement for the damage, but after receiving a quote from a contractor, it has fallen considerably short of the actual expense of the home repair. Awesome Design Contracting has recently worked with a homeowner experiencing this very situation.
