Message from the President
of the Remodelors™ Council
Thank you for choosing the Houston Remodeling Guide as a resource for your
remodeling needs. You have made a very wise choice. The members of the Greater
Houston Builders Association Remodelors Council are committed to quality and
customer service. You should find the right contractors and suppliers for your
project within these pages and through the Remodeler
’s Council Web site on www.ghba.org. Whomever you choose, always check your
contractor
’s references and be sure he or she is registered with the Texas Residential
Construction Commission.
Founded in 1941, the Greater Houston Builders Association is one of the oldest
builders and remodelers associations in the country. The Association represents
more than 2,100 member companies and 100,000 employees.
The Association is also active in community and charitable events. Each year
members contribute property, materials and labor for the Benefit Homes Project.
The majority of the proceeds benefit the Texas Children
’s Hospital, the Alzheimer’s Association and HomeAid Houston. Almost $5 million has been raised since the
program began 29 years ago. The Remodelors Council also sponsors one or more
charitable projects each year. The goals of the Association are to further the
awareness of the members and communities of the importance of professional
business standards, to enhance the business climate for its members, and to
provide quality obtainable housing to the communities it serves.
We hope your remodeling experience is a positive one and your project is
everything you hoped it would be.
