Young Painting & Remodeling is becoming Green

At YPR, we want to not only treat our clients well, but the environment too. We feel that we should be able to offer as many eco-friendly options as we can that still have the quality our clients deserve.

As important as that is, it's just as imperative that we understand and have the knowledge to best advise our clients on their options. Because of that, we are currently becoming "Green" certified through the National Association of the Remodeling Industry (NARI).

This 12 week course addresses specific topics such as building science application, green remodeling guidelines and solar applications to appliance selection and marketing a green business.

At the end of 12 weeks, YPR will be certified and have a solid foundation in which we will be able to offer remodeling options that are more environmentally responsible.
