Local Woman Launches a Free Homeowner Referral Service
The Homeowners Solution is a premier home referral network of dependable, skilled professionals in every field from painting, plumbing and floor refinishing to complete room additions and home renovations.
Seabrook, NH (PRWEB) May 9, 2006 -- When Deirdre Kurland's husband was called up for active duty in Iraq, she did something unusual. Tired of climbing the corporate ladder, Kurland realized that with her husband deployed to the Middle East, raising 2 small children on an inflexible work schedule wasn't going to work. Armed with her Sales and Management experience, plus her MBA from Southern NH University, Kurland decided to start a home-based business.
The Homeowners Solution LLC is an organized referral service for homeowners seeking pre-screened, skilled home improvement professionals including plumbers, painters, handymen, carpenters, electricians, home technology and general contractors. Contractors in The Homeowners Solution network pay a pre-negotiated commission to Kurland for any work secured. This means that the service is free to homeowners.
"Many homeowners don't have time to search for dependable contractors. Some are too busy with day-to-day activities, while others are new to the area and don't know who to call," said Kurland.
All of the contractors in Kurland's network are subject to a comprehensive screening process including licensing, insurance and reference checks. Before referring them, Kurland also contacts the Better Business Bureau and COnsumer Affairs Office for company ratings and any unresolved complaints for all her contractors. "It's hard to find a reliable contractor who will return your calls, show up when they say they will and provide quality work," said Kurland. "I try and take that worry away from the homeowner."
With more than 25 contractors in Kurland's network, THe Homeowners Solution serves the NH Seacoast and surrounding areas.
