Our Story
Owning and running a full demolition company as a minority business was a 24/7 task, but once I realized there was more to life than just working, my husband and I decided it was time to start a family. I understood that the long hours dedicated to the business would make it difficult to raise and spend time with our family. Welcoming our first child was extremely important, so the decision to start a business where I could still use my knowledge and expertise in the construction industry, while being an asset to those who were once my competitors, was an easy one. Transitioning to the expediting side was smooth, and I quickly acquired many clients, with all recommendations coming by word of mouth. Our business mission is to support our clients regardless of the challenge, guiding them through the entire process if necessary. Our values are to be kind, be present, and be honest.
