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.

Florida takes lead in ICE arrests this year

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (CBS12) — Florida has become the country’s busiest hub for immigration arrests this year, with ICE agents in the Miami Field Office — which oversees Florida, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands — logging more detentions than any other region in the nation according to our news partners at the South Florida Sun Sentinel.

According to figures reported by the New York Times, agents under the Miami office are averaging about 120 arrests a day, totaling nearly 9,900 arrests as of March 10. That pace puts Florida well ahead of other regions experiencing federal “surge” operations, including Minnesota, where a high-profile enforcement push drew national scrutiny after two U.S. citizens were killed.

From the Archives: Hospital has 70-year history in Southwest Florida

The following information comes from a March 3, 2024, article in the Naples Daily News.

Founded in 1953, the first modern medical facility opened on Fourth Street South in March 1956 with the name Naples Community Hospital. The hospital’s first baby was born the next day.

Ten years later, in 1966, the hospital added 50 more beds, an emergency department and several specialized departments. Later that decade, several more departments were added including an intensive care unit.

In 1970, the hospital expanded the original building to six stories and began construction on a new, two-story building next door. This building was later expanded to six stories and was dubbed the “South Tower” while the first tower was called the “North Tower.”

Construction on the Downtown Naples facility continued in the 1980s and on Oct. 15, 1984, The North Collier Health Center opened its doors. This facility was opened as a satellite facility of the main hospital. Shortly after, on Feb. 4, 1985, another satellite facility, which included a helipad, was opened on Marco Island.

In January 1990, North Collier Hospital (the North Naples campus) opened with 50 beds at its location on Immokalee Road in North Naples. The healthcare system, as well as the local population, continued to grow during this decade.

NCH was the only hospital in Collier County until 2001.

The four-story, 156,000-square-foot center will offer advanced care for families and be housed on the NCH North Hospital campus.

In February 2007, the system expanded once again with the opening of the $64 million Jay & Patty Baker Patient Care Tower at the North Naples hospital.

In 2020, NCH purchased a 186,000 square foot office building on Immokalee Road to relocate some of its administrative support and non-clinical functions which it expects to complete in spring of 2021.

NCH also started a $35 million renovation and expansion of its Baker Hospital emergency room with a two-story, 19,000 square foot addition to expand its emergency room capacity to 47,000 square feet, with expected completion in February 2022.

In 2023, a rebrand changed what NCH stands for, becoming Naples Comprehensive Health.
