Client Spotlight 
Brighton Gardens
Since January of 2007, All Pro has enjoyed a successful partnership with Brighton Gardens of Yorba Linda, making improvements to their senior assisted living facility. Maintenance coordinator Pravin Chandra calls us first whenever he has a repair job, as he works tirelessly to provide the best possible care to the residents at Brighton Gardens.
 
We have been happy to help them comply with fire codes, as well as general remodeling, from showers and upgrades in the restrooms, to installing new cabinets & crown moulding in their library. We have also installed doors, closed off and created new doorways, repaired windows, and numerous other repairs throughout the facility. 
 
Our very first job for them was converting an unused library into a 'movie theatre' and we are proud to still be the primary contact for this Senior Community. We look forward to helping make the facility a wonderful home for those living there for a long time to come!
 
Paul's Blog
Eleven years ago - I had just undergone surgery and was deciding about medical treatment options.....
 
Maybe it was a good thing that my business was in trouble because, looking back, I think it may have helped me keep my mind off what I was facing in life. I had never had the time to think about children, but after the surgery I did start to wonder. I thought that the radiation might make me sterile. My oncologist told me after the CT that I was cancer-free, so if I wanted we could forgo the radiation and just monitor by doing CT every 3 months. This would give us time to see if my wife Lisa could get pregnant. 
 
After almost two years of monitoring, the CTs were still reading clean, but we hadn't conceived. My urologist then tells me that there were no studies based on my actions and that I should have done the radiation right after the surgery. So, I finally decided to proceed with the radiation treatment. A week before I was to start treatment, Lisa told me she was pregnant!
 
Lo and behold, my son Adam was born in October, 2001. Since then, he has been the greatest blessing we could have ever received. Our life has changed so much, only by the grace of God. 
 
Over the years, we were also able to get our business running smoothly and it is now doing well. It has been an amazing journey, tough at times, but I would not change a thing. That's why they call it life!
 
Raindrops Keep Falling on Your Head? Install a Patio Cover!
Often, life outdoors demands we seek shelter away from it - rain or intense sunlight can make being in the elements and entertaining outside a dicey situation. Patio covers are a delightful compromise when Mother Nature refuses to cooperate with ideal weather. They allow you all the pleasures of outdoor living, plus adequate shelter from rain and intense sun. Reading, eating, relaxing will be considerably enhanced by the installation of this permanent feature.

Covering the patio will provide many more opportunities for outdoor enjoyment. A roofed cover with beams for hanging items like ceiling fans or hanging light fixtures will be wonderful patio features if you do any entertaining outside. Many covers may also be enhanced with plant life for a great blend with the natural elements. Trailing roses or ivy may wind around to add a visual effect. The benefits are endless!

And with summer almost here, right now is the perfect time to install new patio cover! Duralum now offers a Weatherwood Cedar Embossed plank design that qualifies for the 2010 Federal 30% Tax Credit.* Their exclusive Insulated Roof Panel combines the natural look of solid wood with the durability and maintenance-free performance of aluminum, energy efficient design, and a limited lifetime factory warranty, all with a lower price than a wood patio! Call All Pro Builders today for a proposal to get the patio you've always wanted!    
(See our Offer of the Month to the right.)
 
*Maximum $1500 tax credit, qualifying product is the Duralum 3 inch foam insulated Weatherwood Insulated Roof Panel.
