Twenty years ago, remodelers had a uniform: hammer and a nailbag. It was the look of the “Chuck with a truck,” who always had a clipboard on hand, and who represented what the average homeowner believed to be The Remodeler. One could argue that it was fairly accurate.
In 2020, “Remodeler” is a more complicated term. It still represents Chuck, but also it represents a much wider spectrum of professional, and a much more sophisticated level of business. It includes tech enthusiasts that digitize design processes, and college-educated business leaders that emphasize transparency to keep up with client expectations. It includes innovators and thought leaders.
This year’s Forty Under 40 class is proof of that increased sophistication—proof that remodeling has a bright future.
