The Remodeler of the Year 
		category is always the most rewarding category to judge…but also the 
		most difficult. It is always a challenge to select one winner from among 
		many who are so worthy. The criteria for Remodeler of the Year, simply 
		put, is…how much you give and give-back. It’s how much you give your 
		customers through your talents, how much you give your suppliers through 
		your loyalty and solid business practices, how much you give back to 
		your industry through your time and involvement, and how much you give 
		back to your community. Each Remodeler of the Year entrant has relative 
		strengths in each category, but the winners reflect those companies who, 
		in the judge’s opinion, are the strongest in the most areas, with 
		emphasis given to the most current year.
		
		The purpose of the Remodeler of the Year category is to encourage the 
		true professionals to raise their hand and volunteer to be examples. 
		Just as a winning project should inspire those who see it, the 
		Remodelers of the Year should inspire others to follow their lead. By 
		entering the Remodeler of the Year category, a company is agreeing to be 
		an example. 
		
		The kind of company that wins this award would be willing to help you, 
		even if you were a competitor in their market. They would do this to 
		raise the professionalism of this industry and allow you to enjoy the 
		benefits that accrue to those who do it right.
		
		These are companies and individuals that any community would be proud to 
		have, and we’re proud to honor them.
