This new office comes on the heels of the company’s recent launch in Fort Lauderdale. Orlando is now POWER’s third location in the Sunshine State after servicing the Florida market since 2017, specifically in its established Tampa territory. POWER has studied the many unique aspects of the Florida market and refined its processes to better serve the community.
POWER has signed a 29,745 square-foot lease at 6923 Lee Vista Boulevard, which is outfitted with a warehouse space occupying 10,309 square feet. Homeowners in the greater Orlando area, from Ocala all the way down to Vero Beach, can expect product offerings such as windows, roofing, gutters, doors, and attic insulation. All offerings meet Florida’s product specifications so that POWER can service both impact and non-impact areas. POWER’s goal is to be able to fully service Florida customers with the safest product and installation.
Adi Kukuljac, Vice President of Customer Development; Miguel Valentin IV, Vice President of Sales; and TJ Capo, Vice President of Project Services will lead the Orlando office.
“We are incredibly excited to expand our Florida footprint and bring a new level of service and commitment to homeowners across Orlando,” said co-CEO Asher Raphael. “Our talented, tenured Orlando team trained under the tutelage of our Tampa and Ft. Lauderdale offices, who have spent the last seven years learning the intricacies of the Florida market in order to better serve the local community.”
POWER’s reputation as one of the most trusted home remodeling companies in the country spans over 30 years and one million lifetime customers. As an A+ accredited business with the Better Business Bureau, #1 on the 2023 Fortune Best Companies in Construction, and a PEOPLE Magazine Company That Cares, POWER is setting a new standard for how companies behave.
As part of POWER’s commitment to the trades, non-installation employees are trained with the construction skills needed to complete installations through the company’s Dan Price Craftsmanship Academy. The Craftsman program allows POWER to set a new standard for install expectations in the remodeling industry. While the program matures, the Orlando office will open with two Craftsman crews alongside local installation partners.
The company’s robust expansion model includes opening two new offices in major U.S. cities each year to support its rapid growth. POWER is actively looking for installation partners to join the team, and will be hiring for additional in-field roles in the near future.

Cuba says 4 killed after speedboat from Florida opened fire in Cuban waters
Trump threatens tariffs on countries that supply oil to Cuba
Trump warned Cuba to reach an agreement with the U.S. after signing an executive order to impose tariffs on countries that supply the island with oil.
HAVANA (Reuters) – Four people were killed and seven others were wounded on Feb. 25 after a speedboat from Florida entered Cuban waters and opened fire on Cuban forces, who returned fire, Cuba’s Interior Ministry said.
All four dead were aboard the Florida-based speedboat, and another six were injured, Cuba said. In addition, the Cuban commander of border patrol boat was wounded, Cuba said.
The wounded foreign attackers were evacuated and received medical attention, Cuba said.
The incident took place amid heightened tension between Cuba and the United States, which has blocked virtually all oil shipments to the island, increasing pressure on the Communist-run government. American forces captured Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro in Caracas on Jan. 3, removing a key Cuban ally from power.
“Faced with the current challenges, Cuba reaffirms its commitment to protecting its territorial waters, based on the principle that national defense is a fundamental pillar for the Cuban state in safeguarding its sovereignty and stability in the region,” the Cuban statement said.
