My Experience- [your 1 st year] Before Insert a before photo of the 1st house you worked on, or if you have a before photo of your company’s house the prior year, use that. It is helpful to talk about how you first got started and what your expectations and experience has been. If you ‘re new and you don’t have either, use a before and after just use the picture to the left, and delete this box!

What this does for the community…. Testimonials Here is what some homeowners had to say about the event: I loved the paint job and got a lot of positive feedback. I cannot thank you enough. People have stopped by saying how good the house looks, and the color and paint job. Words cannot tell you how grateful I was to be chosen. Please express my thanks to everyone and God bless. I personally thank whoever came up with the inspiration to [do] such a beautiful thing to help improve the look and vitality of neighborhoods. It was a blessing for us. Everyone seemed to be happy in what they were doing and really enjoying themselves. We will never forget you. I appreciated when they walked me around to see if they missed anything—they didn’t.
