Joe's Blog
Joe has been blogging about the remodeling process and experience since 2011.Am I worthy of this kindness?
As a care-giver, I was quick to show that I cared by giving a ridiculous amount of myself to those in need. It became theatrical; when I was in uniform, I was the caped crusader. I had a set of standing orders, powerful medications, lots of high-tech miniaturized...
Remodelers Advantage group visits Atlanta
My Remodelers Advantage EOS group gathered in Atlanta Georgia recently of our semi annual meeting. What a great time. RA in my mind is short for a drinking club with a remodeling…
What do we do with the big corner tub in the master?
When remodeling master bathrooms I have discovered a common theme; we are addressing repeatedly: what to do with the big soaker tub? For a while in the 70s and 80s, builders got the idea that a corner soaker tub would be just the ticket to create a spa-like feel in...

Levco Turns a Monumental Scheduling Corner
For starters, "No client has ever been upset about having their job done on time or early" the inverse is also true. For years I would tell my clients upon signing a remodeling project when I thought their project would start and end. Rarely did we make our "Best case...
Why hire a professional remodeler?
I'm not usually a big fan of guest blogs, but here is an excerpt from an email I received from a trade partner called Prosource. Prosource was recently purchased and will have a grand reopening in Boise soon. They have a focus on flooring. From the mouth of Prosource...
What’s in a word? – Meraki, that’s what
Who knew I would become a vocabulary archeologist for a day, and on top of that, would find something worth sharing? As I was innocently exploring my Greek ancestry via my late Grandma "Tuni" Fortune Levitch, I discovered a word that is used to describe doing work in...
