Tyler Grace — Owner, TRG Home Concepts
Tyler Grace got his start in the trades working every summer for his father’s small remodeling business. A lot of what he learned early on was how not to do things. After graduating from Drexel University with a Bachelor’s Degree in Construction Management, he was crazy (or naive) enough to start his own company. He had no debt, didn’t own a house, was not married, and had no children. He figured there was no better time to lay it all on the line. From that day on, he’s spent a lot of time reading, researching, and practicing the trades in order to hone his skills. |

Nick Schiffer— Remodeler, NS Builders
Nick Schiffer has been a carpenter his whole life. His grandmother would always tell him about the trips to the hardware store to buy new tools and boxes of nails, just to sit him down on her kitchen floor (soon to be re-done) and let him hammer nails into the floor until he was content. Nick’s specialty is definitely interior renovations, he sincerely enjoys the attention to detail and efforts its takes to execute specialty trim details. Everything he does is so methodical. He likes to picture what he’s doing and how it relates to other details in the space. Not everyone will notice these details, but he believes they will unknowingly appreciate them. |
