Power Home Remodeling Opens in Orlando, Florida
The nation’s leading exterior home remodeler continues market expansion, opens its 22nd U.S. location
CHESTER, Pa., August 29, 2024–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Power Home Remodeling (“POWER”), the nation’s leading exterior home remodeler, and the Fortune #14 Best Company to Work For has expanded into Orlando, Florida. This marks the company’s 22nd office location in the country.
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.

ORLANDO, Fla. – Ahead of the coldest temperatures in years for Central Florida, the National Weather Service has issued a freeze watch for Friday morning.

TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) — A cruise ship that departed Florida has been hit by a norovirus outbreak, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The CDC reported that 94 people fell ill on the Holland America Line cruise ship Rotterdam during its voyage between Dec. 28, 2025, and Jan. 9, 2026.
Those affected by the norovirus outbreak showed the typical symptoms of vomiting and diarrhea.
The virus, which is highly contagious, is the number 1 cause of foodborne illnesses in the United States, according to the Cleveland Clinic. Symptoms appear between 12 and 48 hours after exposure and can include other symptoms like stomach pain, headaches, and fevers.
According to the CDC, 85 passengers out of 2,593 reported being sick. Nine of the 1,005 crew members reported being ill as well.
The CDC said Holland America Line and the Rotterdam crew increased cleaning and disinfection measures and quarantined those who fell ill to prevent the disease from spreading further.
CruiseMapper.com showed that the ship departed Fort Lauderdale on Dec. 28. The cruise line’s website also has several future voyages out of Fort Lauderdale as well.
8 On Your Side has reached out to Holland America for more information on the outbreak.
After a push to nearly the end of the launch window, a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket took off on Florida’s third launch of 2026.
The rocket lifted off at 4:08 p.m. Monday, January 12 from Launch Complex 40 in Cape Canaveral Space Force Station. It had originally been scheduled for earlier in the afternoon, but the launch time was repeatedly pushed back. SpaceX did not give a reason for the change in timing.
The Falcon 9 carried 29 Starlink internet satellites to orbit on the booster’s 25th mission. No sonic booms were heard in Brevard County, as the booster landed on the Just Read the Instructions drone ship in the Atlantic Ocean.
Next SpaceX rocket launch from Cape Canaveral
The next Falcon 9 rocket launch from Florida is scheduled for no earlier than 1:01 p.m. Wednesday, January 14 from Launch Complex 40 in Cape Canaveral Space Force Station.
The mission is the next batch of SpaceX Starlink internet satellites, titled Starlink 6-98.
