      Richard Charles Contracting and Design formed with two things in mind: Helping customers find their vision in their homes or investment properties and changing the status quo for what skilled employees experience in the work place. Focusing on the latter will yield great results for the former. My philosophy is that customer service focus should be directed towards employees. Where buy-in isn't a periodical strategy session and where culture isn't an after thought, its an ever evolving spirit.
