Good afternoon to all of my clients, friends and anyone else that may follow my page! I hope this finds you all happy, healthy and enjoying your summer.
I wanted to take a moment to communicate some changes that I will be making to my business. I have been truly blessed to have been able to do the things I enjoyed as a career for the last 17 years. There have been many ups and downs, I have made a lot of mistakes, I have learned an immeasurable amount and I have enjoyed working on tons of fun projects!
As most of you are aware, we tragically lost our son, Jake, last October. Naturally, it absolutely devastated and wrecked me, as well as my wife and daughter. We have spent a lot of time trying to learn how to heal, and honestly-just how to function all over again. We are fortunate to have a great community that has shown so much love, compassion and support. We still have quite a ways to go, but we will make it.
For the foreseeable future, I will likely be turning down the long-term, complicated and detail oriented projects that I have so enjoyed in the past. It just simply isn’t fair to my clients and I never want to be known as “that contractor”. Not going into too much detail, but my mental health/state is not where it should be. It makes it nearly impossible to keep focused, and the anxiety of ordering/scheduling along with the focus is making me miss things or make mistakes that I wouldn’t have made in the past! This leads to frustration, anger, etc.
Not to fear-if you are already on my list, I will get your project completed! This is hopefully just a short(er) term issue while I work on myself. And by all means, please keep reaching out. This is just to manage expectations. I will still be taking jobs-its just the size of the jobs that I will be scaling back on as I’m nowhere near retirement yet!
Please text if there is any confusion, or if we have spoken and you have any concerns at all! I promise to get back with you within the next business day.
Thank all of you who have prayed for our family, or have offered support in any way at all!
Regards, Bob
