‼️⚠️ Warning long thank you post!⚠️‼️
Happy weekend everyone. We survived week 1 at the new location and we are ready to start again tomorrow.🙂
We couldn’t have done it at all without the help of some of our amazing friends and family. Thank you all. From the guy that remembered we wanted the building, to the contractor that just keeps coming up with more ideas, to the guys that helped spend endless hours pressure washing and moving things, we appreciate you all more than you’ll ever know. You know who you are and we love you.
There were a lot of hours getting the new location ready and getting us moved in. We are still working on a few little things but we are getting there.
That being said, there were some local businesses that helped us along the way to get where we are too and we’d like to give a shout out and huge thank you to the following:
🌟DC Electric for all of the updated electrical and lighting throughout the entire building
🌟Evans Flooring for the new floors throughout and so many more little projects
🌟R. Maquet Plumbing for the plumbing throughout
🌟Shepard Concrete for our ramps and paint booth pit
🌟AB Hunter for cleaning the sewer lines out
🌟City Coal & Asphalt for our new blacktop
🌟Ace Striping for our parking lines
🌟Seico Security for our security system
🌟Hunt’s Construction for installing the back man door and his support along the way
🌟Marmic Fire & Safety for our booth suppression system
🌟Jone’s Equipment for our brand new paint booth
🌟Tazewell Towing for moving some of our equipment
🌟Born Paint for our paint throughout the building
🌟KL Seamless Gutters for our new gutters
🌟Honegger Sign for moving our Bear
and finally, the City of Pekin for working with us throughout this adventure.
We look forward to seeing everyone soon and serving the community for years to come. 💞
Sincerely,
Jen & Joseph Thomas
