Jeff's Resume'

 

 

When someone is working for you, it's important to know who they are and what their experience is. So many people, whether builders or homeowners hire people and have no idea if they have the experience. We consider ourselves working for you and you need to  know that we can do the job we're hired for. Jeff has vast experience. Not only practical experience but he is a 5th generation construction worker. Like the photo shows he has had a lifelong classroom, from his father and grandfather to his uncles, the Tindall family has been in Drywall and construction for generations. We think it matters.
