Welcome Rich Gunderman of Gunderman Construction. Rich is a homebuilder based in Calhoun, GA with many years of experience in building new homes. He obtained his contractor’s license at the young age of 20 after becoming inspired by a teacher that mentored him in high school. He started his career as a builder with America’s Home Place and in 2008 he decided to start his own company. Gunderman Construction focuses primarily on residential and light commercial new construction.
Recently, Rich had a project he was working on for an organization called Homes For Our Troops. This is an organization that builds homes for service members who have been critically injured overseas and require modifications to be made to their homes for better accessibility.
Keith Bost, the estimator for Gunderman Construction, called us to construct a safe room for one of these homes. This particular home was to be built on a slab foundation, so the safe room was constructed directly on top of the slab. This will provide easy accessibility to protection in case of an emergency for this recovering veteran.
Speaking to Rich and Keith after we poured the safe room, they were very pleased with the job we did. Keith stated, “Herbert was the most professional poured wall company I have ever worked with. I felt like we got a fair price and we were very satisfied with the work.” Rich then added, “We will definitely be sending more work your way, and will send others any time we get the chance. We really were impressed with how easy the process was.”
We enjoyed working with Gunderman Construction on this project and hope to work with them on many more in the near future.
Homes For Our Troops is a charitable organization that has built 290 homes for severely disabled veterans nationwide since 2004. All of these homes have been presented to each veteran 100% mortgage free. Homes for our troops receives 70% of its’s funds from individual supporters and community groups.
