Remodelers Council members giving back

-

The members of the Remodelers Council of the Greater Houston Builders Associatio­n (GHBA) want to express their heartfelt sympathies to anyone affected by the recent extreme weather events and power outages. The Remodelers Council stands ready to assist neighbors as the area works to rebuild the homes and communitie­s that have been damaged.

As you assess any damage to your home, the Remodelers

Council can help you to make an informed decision regarding your contractor choices. Before you hire a contractor, do your homework to ensure that you are hiring a local, reputable, qualified individual or company to help you rebuild your home or business. Beware of “fly-by-night” operators who often show up in communitie­s impacted by disasters to try to scam homeowners. Visit ghba.org to find a reputable remodeler who services your community.
