K-Designers, one of the west coast’s biggest exterior remodeling firms, commenced with a 1978 hail storm that struck the city of Casper, Wyoming. Hail damage to buildings there was so widespread local contractors could not meet demand for all the insurance claims. Brothers Lee and Larry Judson came to town, hammers in hand, to help out short term. They ended up staying on, mastering exterior remodeling and forming K-Designers.
K-Designers has never strayed from its focus on exterior remodels. For most of its early history, they did one thingsidingand did it well. Gradually they added replacement windows and exterior doors.
Larry also saw that as a larger company, they could leverage their buying power to obtain greater service and pricing from suppliers. K-Designers now buys all of its products directly from the manufacturer. And, by focusing on just a few related productssiding, replacement window and exterior doorsK-Designers is able to develop efficient systems for delivering a quality career every time.
“All the neighbors compliment how great the whole career looks”, says Tom Opatz, a satisfied K-Designers siding customer in St. Paul Park, Minnesota. “It will also save us a lot on cooling and heating and, of course, no more painting so well have more time to do other things more enjoyable.”
K-Designers is bucking the downtrend in the construction field with development plans that include expanding to new markets via acquisitions, broadening its product line for different geographical regions and marketing to its current base of over 100,000 clients. K-Designers is one of the few construction companies that is actively seeking new employees and offers good prospects for career maturation over the next few years.
