Many family members play different roles throughout our company now. We are a company that believes in building homes, not houses. As a family ourselves, we know how important it is to have a place called Home: A place for our loved ones and a place to be our safe-houses. We make it our point to listen to our customers and empathize with their pains and needs. We want you to feel comfortable and safe in your own homes.
Expand has earned many designations throughout the years. Our most prized being our Certified Aging in Place Specialists Designation. Our clients want to reduce the risk of falls in their bathrooms before they happen, they want increased lighting for both safety and quality of life. Our clients want to reduce the risk of falling in their own bathrooms before it happens. They want to work with licensed, professional, experienced and certified remodelers to reduce the risk of liabilities such as uninsured, unlicensed and unprofessional work.
