At Professional Interiors, Inc. we believe it is important to give back to the community we live and work in.
Our approach is two-fold. Every year we select charities to which we donate services and money. We also are continually improving our environmental practices and increasing the use of ecologically safe materials to do our part to improve the living conditions in the community.
Charitable Donations
Since 2007, we have donated considerable time and money supporting Our House’s efforts toward helping homeless children. We helped design and raise funds for a badly needed addition to their homeless child care and career counseling facilities. Professional Interiors donated over 200 hours to help jumpstart the building process. We worked with architects and sub-contractors to configure and price the entire project, consisting of a 4000 sq. ft. addition and a retrofit of the existing building. The building is now open and serving more than 75 children daily.
Cayenne has served on the Board of Our House since 2005 and in 2011 was elected Vice Chair of the Board. To learn more or to make donations, visit the Our House website.
Each year we also help two or three senior citizens. We donate free or very low cost services and encourage our HVAC plumbing and electrical subs to help also. Recently, we built a wheelchair ramp and rebuilt a rotting porch. We also repair loose shingles on leaking roofs, replace faucets and lights, repair or replace appliances and locks, and do maintenance like cleaning gutters. The guys get to know the people we help and enjoy the relationship.
Conservation and Green Building
In 2008 we entered the Inman Park parade, driving an electric car generously provided by Smart Energy Stuff to demonstrate our commitment to conservation.
We have always demonstrated our concern with conservation and health through the use of materials such as formaldehyde-free insulation, laminated beams, recycling old wood as mulch, and the recommendation of Energy Star appliances.
We practice sound and energy efficient building practices like TechShield roof decking to reduce heat in attics, high rated insulation, and tankless water heaters. We recycle metals, turn trimmed tree parts into mulch for the yard, and re-use materials where possible.
In one case we transformed an old granite curb discarded by a new development project into a beautiful front step to a porch addition. In another an old standard beam became our next client’s living room mantel.
Since 2008 all of our remodeling projects met or exceeded EarthCraft House standards. We are making that commitment formal by joining EarthCraft House.
