What is your "why"? Why do you do what you do?
I am very proud of the fact that since our inception in 1982 R. Godfrey Consulting has provided client consultation in pre-project situations to prevent unwise & costly product selection and purchasing. RGC assists the client by eliminating the gaps and mistakes that often occur during the Architectural and Interior design stages, product selection, contractor bidding process, building enclosure & acclimation, product delivery & proper acclimation of flooring products at the installation site, the proper substrate preparation and installation process and finally, protecting the flooring installation during the proper and timely move-in process. RGC also performs site inspections, provides testing and a report of finding that determines cause of failure, and if necessary assigns responsibility for the failure. In the long term, and in post project completion situations we assist the client and their attorney, as an expert witness, to assist in mediation, arbitration and to testify in deposition or at trial. -
Qualifying Questions: What are three questions we can ask clients to help pave the way for a referral? List them here.
