Building community

We hope each of you took some time to relax over the 4th of July and rest up for a

busy summer of building and remodeling homes!

A few of our team members took the initiative to be a part of the Boyne City Parade — check out our new Ford F550 all dressed up!

Everything goes better with tacos

Preston Feather brings products, experts and builders together at the Perry Hotel

Preston Feather partnered with its distribution partner Lumbermen’s to host a product fair at the Perry Hotel on June 23rd. Vendor specialists were on site from:

• ColorFusion and Cedar Shingles

• Great American Spaces

• LP Smartside & ExpertFinish

• QE – Vesta/TruCedar

• Royal Celect Siding

• AZEK Trim and Siding with PAINTPRO

• AZEK Timbertech Decking, Rail & Trim

• FastenMaster

• Fortress Pergolas & Fortress Framing

We had a great turnout and rave reviews – on products, knowledge on how to use them and (of course) a great taco buffet. Preston Feather sales and purchasing experts were also there to share their product knowledge. Door prizes included a Solo Stove, Apple Watch, Yeti Bag, Cirkul Bundle, and a stocked cooler! Thanks to all who attended and our sponsor Lumbermen’s for making this a great event — the Rose Room at the Perry Hotel was a perfect setting for this event and we look forward to more like this in the future. Watch the video!

Learning by doing

A few of our team members recently spent time on a Petoskey jobsite to learn the correct way to install cabinetry! The project began as a blank slate in the kitchen to having full upper and lowers installed before the countertops could be measured.

This is part of our on-going staff training initiative to make sure we are up to date on the methods used on jobsite installations – all in the name of better service and expectations!

“It was great seeing all of the steps in a cabinetry install so we can answer questions that our customers have at the counter and have a better understanding of how the whole construction process works.” Noah Radoy, Petoskey Inside Sales
