My industry certifications and affiliations show my belief in maintaining a business with quality construction standards and professional business practices.
NARI
The National Association of the Remodeling Industry is an association of experienced remodelers who stand behind their work and follow a strict code of ethics.
My certification with NARI is a Certified Remodeler (CR). This is the highest designation NARI offers. It takes years of remodeling experience to qualify for this certification along with in-class training and completion of a comprehensive test on all aspects of the remodeling business. My CR designation tells you that I understand all the trades and know how to operate a business. It reassures you that my company will remain in business to provide support for the warranties you have in place.
Minnesota GreenStar is a leading residential building standards and certification program created by Minnesotans for Minnesotans. The program promotes healthy, durable, high-performance design and construction for both new and existing homes across Minnesota.
Fundamental to the program is an objective, third-party verification system that assures consumers that the new home or remodeling project performs as designed. My certification is a MN Greenstar Qualified Associate.
Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design is an internationally recognized green building certification system, providing third-party verification that a building or community was designed and built using strategies intended to improve performance in metrics such as energy savings, water efficiency, CO2 emissions reduction, improved indoor environmental quality, and stewardship of resources and sensitivity to their impacts.
I have taken classes for certification and incorporate LEED practices into my work when possible.
