Who
is the Remodelors™ Council?
The
Remodelors™ Council is a national award winning council
comprised of Home Builders Association members who are affiliated
or work in the remodeling industry. Over 200 members work
together with a goal of being the one source for both homeowners
and industry professionals. Council members are offered a
variety of ongoing education opportunities to keep them up
to date on the latest technology, products and environmental
issues. Business management issues are also frequently addressed,
which improves customer service.
The
Council has established Oregon's original Tour of Remodeled
Homes™ (1999) and helps to produce Remodel Portland,
the annual magazine devoted to the professional remodeling
industry and the Tour. Council members also actively participate
in both the spring and fall Portland Home & Garden Show
and the annual Surplus Sale.
As
a group, the Remodelors™ Council is generous with its
time and financial support of local charities. Through collaboration
on the Tour, playhouse projects benefiting CASAS for KIDS
and continued involvement with the ReBuilding Together (formerly
Christmas in April) program. Council members have given hundreds
of hours and thousands of dollars to support local organizations.
Ladies of the Remodelors™ Council annually participate
in the Susan G. Komen "Race for the Cure" to benefit breast
cancer research. The Council also developed a scholarship
program for local young people entering a career in the building
industry.
The
Council has been recognized on the national level for its
energy, commitment to the industry and professional attitude
toward the consumer. The Council Award for Demonstrating Remodeling
Excellence (CADRE) is the highest national award a local council
can receive. The Portland Remodelors™ Council has won
nine of these prestigious awards in the past five years. Click
