How do you use your previous experience and/or education to do your job?

What do you love about remodeling?
In our industry – Fabrication and Installation of Countertops – I love knowing how happy our customers are with their new surfaces.  Some changes are just a simple new countertops, and some are major remodelers, but in both cases the countertops are the “bling” in their remodel and knowing we’re a part of that is very satisfying.
