Who is The Remod Squad®?

Remodelers wish to and should be taken seriously. Scherer Brothers Lumber Company believes that is the first rule of serving the fastest growing sector of our industry. Remodeling is as much an art as it is a science. It is dramatically different than new home sales and requires an entirely different service model. This is why we developed the only dedicated sales team just for remodelers - The Remod Squad®.

Remodelers have told us in no uncertain terms what they want in a long-term relationship:

Own my problems - regardless of who is to blame I need the best solution as quickly as possible.
Provide a consistent, smooth sales experience - regardless of whom I talk to or where I get my materials.
Know my operation so well that you can be an extension of my business - even to the point of meeting with my customers and me as my supply expert.
Keep me informed - not just of the latest products, but also offer me education.
Protect my reputation - nothing is worse than looking bad in front of my customers.

So what are the benefits of having a senior Remod Squad® salesperson?

Financial incentives such as discounts for growth partners.
A single contact for everything meaning fewer calls to get answers and action.
A long-term growth partner who will stand by you through the hard times.
Resource management - your Remod Squad® salesperson is your conductor. He or she orchestrates the products and services available at 5 locations so you don't have to worry about quality, availability, or delivery.

History of The Remod Squad®

1997 - In response to remodeler comments about the need for dedicated sales staff and focused products, Scherer Brothers began pulling together a group of sales people to deal solely with Remodelers. In the years that followed, The Remod Squad® grew and so did the opportunities for remodelers: from new, remodeling only products to educational seminars and presentation kits to help our customers sell more successfully. Scherer Brothers involvement in the remodeling industry grew as well, with substantial monetary contributions in support of industry associations.

The Remod Squad® believes the future of remodeling is extremely bright. Our goal is to help lead the way.
