Kevin Anundson, NARI president — Selling to remodelers: service vs. price
LBM Journal
At Renovations Group, Inc., our customers often come to us with a budget for a specific remodeling project or room addition to enhance their homes. Our company is as budget conscious as our clients, and while we try to meet their needs and drive prices down as far as we can, lumber and other building material products are simply too important to skimp on.

top of technology, using high-end design
