Today’s guest is Nathan Madden, General Manager of trade and commercial (Dayton,OH to Carlisle, Ky) for Pella Windows and Doors. Nathan is also very involved in the HBA (Home Builders Association) in Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky.
Both Jeff and Nathan are passionate about getting kids involved in having careers in construction. Nathan discusses his involvement in both the Cincinnati HBA and Northern Kentucky HBA and their programs for kids to get involved in the trades. Cincinnati HBA has Careers is Construction and Northern Kentucky HBA has The Enzweiler Building Institute. These programs provide opportunities and lay out the path for learning skills for a future career in the construction industry.
Nathan discusses Pella Window and Door’s company history, the local and national levels and what it means to him to work for a company that is huge but feels small with family values that is always striving to be innovative. He discusses what makes Pella great in the industry; every employee from the line to sales believes they are giving the best product to the end user. The product not only has high quality and performance, they provide great products at each level to meet the end user with the same quality and high performance.
They discuss some of the popular glass folding doors that are being used in homes recently that bring the outside in and the inside out in. Some have a 10ft opening or a whole wall that opens up.
Learn what makes a great window withstand the test of time, why Pella stands behind their products and only partners with builders like Wieland Builders. Both want to see the same high end quality product, attitude and respect the value in the materials used/received in their final delivery to a client that is expected. Together, both constantly strive to improve and move forward in the industry.
Stick around until the end to hear Jeff talk about his other Pella relationships with Jim Frey and Brett Howard.
