Home Updates

An area Veteran nominated another Veteran.  While discussing the request, we found out she recently purchased an older home and her back door would not stay closed.  Her biggest concern was her emotional support dog getting out.  We suggested she also apply for herself.  We are happy to say she did and we are excited to work with the Lunsford Group LLC, a Veteran owned company.  They are replacing her back door with a steel entry door, new deadbolt and lock set.  While there, they looked at her front door and will be installing a new lock set as well.
