Extreme Makeover: Home Edition

By Carol

cremhmtbBob Schoen and seven others from Florida Bath & Surfaces, Inc. joined hundreds of volunteers to build a home for a couple who adopted six special needs children from China.

The company created kitchen and bathroom countertops for the new home earlier this year for “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.”

Florida Bath & Surfaces spent just five hours early one morning installing countertops fabricated from designer renderings. This process usually takes about 10 days!
According to Schoen, President, “It was definitely a little more difficult, but there was total cooperation. We had 50 to 60 people in the house at once and everyone was pitching in. We knew it was a good thing.”

The Cambria quartz kitchen countertops and LivingStone bathroom countertops installed in the home are valued at $12,000. Cambria and LivingStone donated their materials and Florida Bath & Surfaces donated their time.

The company’s entire staff was excited and enthusiastic about the build, and the company was proud to take part in the effort to put a deserving local family in a safe, beautiful new home.
