Announcing With Great
Pride -- Big 50 - 2009
 Everyone
connected with Tim Lemke Construction is very proud to be the only
Minnesota remodeling company that was honored in 2009 by Remodeling
magazine. This national honor rewards remodelers who set exceptionally
high standards for professionalism and integrity through exemplary
business practices, craftsmanship, and impact their community or the
industry at large. Started in 1986, more than 1,600 remodeling companies
have been honored–currently there are 179,000 remodeling companies in the
country.
The selection process has become more rigorous recently, and the editors
of Remodeling magazine believe this is one of the strongest list of
companies vying for the honor. Each company honored opened their business
and books for examination, and demonstrated a deft ability to restructure,
retrench and flat-out hustle to remain viable in an extremely difficult
economic climate. – Remodeling Magazine.
Nominations are made by Remodeling editors, columnists, industry leaders,
and the remodeling companies themselves– before the 50 national winners
are named. (See the full press release on Awards/Honors page)
Big50 Service Excellence Award – 2009
Only FOUR of the Big50 companies were given this additional honor of
Service Excellence.
GuildQuality independently surveyed fifty customers per remodeling
company. The responses show TLC’s customers as among the most satisfied.
“We couldn’t be more proud or more humbled that our customers feel so
strongly about our service. We are very grateful for them taking the time
to respond to the survey and for their kind words,” Tim said. “Especially
in this economic climate, it is reassuring to know that our customers
understand the value of what we provide.

"We
know good work when we see it, having built two homes. And
we know a good contractor when we see one, and that's Tim Lemke
Construction.
"During our kitchen
remodeling project, Tim kept us informed of the progress.
He's always very accessible. His workmen were respectful
of the rest of the house and cleaned up every night. The
subcontractors were also top-notch craftsmen.
"I will recommend Tim
Lemke Construction to anyone who asks. In fact it seems
his company is 'working the way down our block of homes'.
He is highly competent, easy to work with, flexible and accommodating."
