Advanced Renovations was
founded in January of 1998 by Duane Johns and Roger
Ketchum. In just a couple of short years David Dubé and Pat
Apple joined the team to help produce the workload that our
growing customer base required. At that time Duane became a
full time office person handling all the sales, estimating
and administrative work. After a few years of steady growth
David stepped into the office to help with estimating and
sales. With added carpenters in the field we were able to
keep multiple projects in progress at the same time. In
2005 Roger joined the office team as production manager. As
sales increased so did the need for help to produce them.
In September of 2006 Chris Nestor joined the team as a
project manager. His role quickly changed to production
manager and a couple of our experienced lead carpenters
moved into project manager roles as we balanced in house
work with subcontract labor. In the past 10 years we have
grown at a steady pace by promoting people within our team
and bringing in qualified people. With the team we now have
in place we can continue our steady growth and keep our
focus on quality and providing our customers with a
pleasurable experience throughout their project.
