Jancewicz & Son out of Bellows Falls, Vermont once again has made it into this prestegist list of top 500 remodelers of the year for 2009. With a company history of outstanding performance and inovative building and remodeling it is no wonder that they are in the top 500 in the United States.

In light of the economic challenges the remodeling industry recently has faced, this year’s Top 500 list is a remarkable document. It portrays remodelers who have prevailed. Firms that have adapted and changed. Companies that have learned to do more with less. In other words, doing what remodelers have always done.

Top 500 has a long tradition, During that time, the market has had its ups and downs, and, yet, remodeling is a larger industry than ever.

Homeowners thinking of updating a kitchen or bath or adding a room might ask the staff at the local lumberyard if they knew someone who was capable of doing the job. Usually, that person wasn’t anyone who called himself a “remodeler.” Word-of-mouth advertising, then as now, was how many craftsmen got their work.

But there have been major changes, too. The local lumberyard has largely given way to big-box retailers or large distributorships. Major manufacturers now see professional home improvement as a market essential to their survival. In short, remodeling has gained respect. We like to think the Top 500 has contributed to that status.

As a remodeling industry barometer, this year’s Top 500 is as important as ever. Total aggregate dollar volume of the Top 500 remodelers declined from $4.9 billion in 2007 to $4.5 billion in 2008, but still above the $4.1 billion level of 2006 and matching 2004 numbers.

Top 500 average remodeling revenue for 2008 was $9.4 million, down from $9.7 the previous year, but still a respectable number in the five-year period from 2003 through 2008.

With so many remodelers out there in the market place today, you don't know what you are going to get. Janceqicz & Son has stayed strong and inovative over the past year to bring its customers quality remodeling today and into the future.
