October 27, 2022 - McBride Remodeling

Being recognized as the Top 500 of remodeling firms in the United States by Qualified Remodeler is a high honor for our team. The list, which is based on remodeling dollar volume, total years in business, certifications, accreditations and community service, represents the most successful remodeling firms across the country. McBride Remodeling came in at Number 414 on the list, an exciting accomplishment for our entire Northern Michigan team.

McBride Remodeling Has Grown in its 40 Years of Operations

Being recognized as Qualified Remodeler’s list of the Top 500 remodeling firms in the country is validation that the McBride Method works and that our reputation for consistent quality and dependability have earned us this distinction. Here at McBride Remodeling, we believe our clients come first and that our commitment to excellence and service have built a strong reputation throughout Northern Michigan.

McBride Remodeling began over 40 years ago with a mission to provide families in the Petoskey region with the home of their dreams and places where they can make memories. All the awards in the world won’t compare to one of our previous clients returning for another project or recommending McBride Remodeling to their friends and family. Knowing that we exceeded their expectations so that they will refer us to the people closest to them will always be our highest honor. We look forward to continuing the tradition of being the remodeling firm of choice for generations of families throughout the Northern Michigan region.

Rest assured, that when you choose to work with our team, we promise to always provide exceptional customer service and the highest quality remodeling services throughout your project.

Award Winning Service and Results

While the Top 500 list shows the volume and value of the projects we’ve been able to complete in 2022, it’s an honor to pair this with our other awards that highlight our work and quality. For instance, we’ve been named “Best Builder of the Northwest” for multiple years and have received the Guildmaster Award of Excellence. In addition, we have earned multiple certifications which represent our achievements in specific areas, such as being named a Certified Aging-in-Place specialist and Certified Green Professional.

Driven by Our Core Values

While earnings and accolades are important and an honor, we’ll always remain focused on our core values as a key driving force for our work. We will always strive to Do The Right Thing and put our clients first, prioritizing integrity, honesty and kindness. Our mantra is to Go The Extra Mile, which means we never want to stop learning, and strive to be the best communicators, while remaining a strong, supportive team. We understand what matters most is that we are good people who treat others with respect and compassion, always finding ways that we can give back to our community. That’s why we chose our 40 Acts of Kindness as a giving way to commemorate our 40 year anniversary.

Looking Toward the Future and More Growth

Although 2022 marks the eighth time McBride Remodeling has been named to the Top 500 list, this year is particularly rewarding because of the improvements we’ve made. We’ve worked hard to ensure more efficient material sourcing and availability of materials, resulting in no more waiting or backlogs for our clients. As market conditions have improved and material availability has increased, we’re excited to take on new projects and look forward to helping you achieve your dream home.

A Perfect Day on the Bay

We’re thankful for the beautiful summer weather we enjoyed at our anniversary celebration. Set at the beautiful historic Perry Hotel, overlooking Little Traverse Bay on Michigan’s “Gold Coast,” it was the perfect location to gather together. Our team works so hard and dedicates themselves to every project that we do, so it was our pleasure to pamper them a bit. Inviting our loyal clients to share in the celebration made it that much sweeter. The day was spent reminiscing over delicious food, refreshing drinks and great company. We couldn’t have asked for a better day!

The Culmination of McBride’s 40 Acts of Kindness

Throughout the year, we’ve been celebrating McBride’s 40th anniversary with our #40actsofkindness initiative. A part of the core values of McBride Remodeling is going the extra mile and giving back. So we couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate our anniversary than with an act of kindness for every year we’ve had the privilege to serve the Northern Michigan community. This included donations to Northern Michigan’s Habitat for Humanity, the Little Traverse Bay Humane Society and the 100 Men Campaign, a campaign that provides men a way to help end violence toward women and girls, organized through the Women’s Resource Center of Northern Michigan.

Celebrating Our History, Excited for the Future!

We want to say a big thank you to all of our loyal clients and dedicated group of professionals on the McBride team. It was announced at the celebration that founder Dave McBride, after 40 years as owner, will be transitioning into a well-deserved retirement and Jay Sackrider, former general manager is moving into the ownership role after years of dedicated service to the team. Both men spoke on their shared mission to always provide superior quality and professional craftsmanship to produce first-class results for our clients. We’re grateful that our reputation now speaks for itself and we appreciate every referral and family who continues to work with us for generations.

At the culmination of the party, Dave McBride was presented with a gorgeous hand-painted watercolor of McBride Remodeling. For all of us on the McBride team, we understand how important home is and we dedicate our lives to providing the spaces where families can make memories and grow together. We look forward to continuing this tradition and can’t wait to see what the next 40 years holds for McBride Remodeling!

Cheers to 40 years!
