He saw the need for honest construction practices and wanted to build a haven for a talented workforce. With these goals in mind, Dan has created a better business model for his employees to have a career, not just a job, and he believes his customers’ needs and homes are sacred. Since founding The Dan Company LLC and receiving his General Contracting license, Dan has helped many clients achieve their home renovation dreams.
