I was in the warehouse this morning looking for a 4" X 4" post to replace my mailbox. Someone clipped my mailbox a couple of nights ago and broke the post in half. I keep looking for neighbors who have recent car damage, but no suspects yet.
While looking through our lumber, I ran into Micah Tolles, Project Manager here at SouthEnd. Although we work together, I have not seen him over the past three days. He and his wife have twin boys that are four years old, so I know his life can be hectic.
"Hey buddy, what is going on," I yelled across the warehouse. "Man, I have been everywhere this week, Everywhere," replied Micah.
So, I ask the obvious, where is everywhere?
Turns out Micah has been traveling between Lake Norman to Rock Hill, SC looking at a number of projects that homeowners are considering for spring renovations to their homes.
"I see so many homeowners that have decided to invest in a home remodeling project, people are staying put," noted the construction management gradute from WCU. "Folks are building decks, knocking out walls, residing their houses, building outdoor living areas and sunrooms. Families want to renovate their homes and recreate a new home with these projects."
He reminded me that most homeowners are ready to make the investment as activity has picked up over the past two weeks.
For the first time in over a year, customers have two or three projects that they are considering for their homes. Even some homeowners that are looking at projects for homes that are much newer, less than 5-6 years old, are calling.
Spring, eternal spring.
