A&M REMODELING, INC.
A Professional Residential Remodeling Company
A&M CUSTOM HOMES, INC.
Land Development and New Home Construction

Tim began a small residential remodeling company after becoming discontent with the low quality of workmanship his employers required in order to satisfy budget and profit constraints.  Tim grew his business substantially within his first three years of providing remodeling services and then made a major strategic move to begin land development and new home construction.

While working with Tim from the time he began operations, we learned that Tim was extraordinary with attention to detail from the estimating process to the final coat of paint on the walls.  Our goal was to compliment his attention to detail on the job with quality professional services to accelerate the growth curve without letting his business run him.

ROB'S BARBER SHOP
A Local Barber Shop

We helped Rob when he opened his local barber shop which he grew to support his family in less than one year.  Rob needed help with many of the very basic accounting and tax issues.  We advised Rob on selection of a business structure, calculation of proper income tax estimates while considering withholding from his wife's job, and how to keep records so a proper accounting could be achieved for correct income tax reporting.  In addition, Rob had a passion for woodworking and we helped him identify the pros and cons of making his hobby a profession.
