About the Contractor

This had to be one of the toughest decisions we've made as a married couple. We started out with five contractors bidding on this job. Originally, we separated the front porch job from the rear addition, but as time marched on, we merged the jobs into one monstrous undertaking.

By the time we were down to two contractors, the decision was becoming almost uncomfortable. We had two Godly men, both displaying integrity and honesty. Both showing that they had the skills to undertake the job. Each bringing a set of positives and negatives to the table that just about balanced out each other. But we could only pick one.

And that selection went to Todd Hanlin of Distinguished Products & Services.

We'll reserve final judgement on Todd for the end of the project, but for now, we've been impressed. He's not only a general contractor with rave reviews on kudzu.com (which is actually where we found him) and excellent feedback from the referrals we called, but he's also the team lead for the D.i.R.T Ministry out of Wildwood Baptist Church in Acworth. They have partnered with a local church in Bay St. Louis, Mississippi for the purpose of helping with disaster rebuild efforts from Hurricane Katrina. As of this posting, they have actually just returned from one of their trips.

So, next step is the contract. Pray for us all on that one! =8^]
