Bill Cole

- Home Preservation Project

"I didn't know that they worked on houses, I thought they just built houses. I had wood rot everywhere ... they replaced all the rotten siding, and the paint made it look like a brand new home."

Ivory

- Rock the Block Homeowner

"My wife and I have been needing our house painted for a long time, but we couldn't do it on our own. I can’t say the words for what it means. For someone to knock on our door, then come out and get it done for us in a day is a blessing. Thank God."

- Veterans Build Homeowner

"Everyone turned over every stone to make sure it happened, and I felt really supported. It was very hope giving. "

Sam Ruggles

- Pride Build Homeowner

"What I was most excited about for Pride Build is making my house look like a place that you would want to come visit. I moved in(to this house) in late 2019 … In 2020, COVID hit. That’s when I retired. Then in 2021, cancer hit. That took the wind out of me for all of 2021 and most of 2022. So in 2023, I’m really looking forward to a new beginning, and this Pride Build actually helps. It helps a lot."

Wade Wiederhold

- Veterans Build Homeowner

"Living in a home where you're stressed, and every time it rains you have to put buckets out and clean up. It's an enormous relief to have it taken care of. "
