Why We’re the Industry Leader
Founder. Architectural Engineer. Designer. International Speaker & Author. Inventor. Construction Management Expert.
Trusted Remodel Advisor was founded on the belief that homeowners deserve more than vague bids and blind trust in contractors. That belief is rooted in the 50-year career of our founder, Mr. Gibbs a nationally respected design and construction authority, former president of the American Institute of Building Design, and advisor to the U.S. Patent Offibe. With a background in architectural engineering, an MBA, and more than 100 successful projects under his belt, Mr. Gibbs built Trusted Remodel Advisor to empower homeowners with clarity, control, and contractor-free guidance. Every TRA advisor is trained to uphold the same high standards of ethics, technical insight, and homeowner advocacy that define his legacy.
Our mission is to protect and empower homeowners through ethical, expert guided remodeling support — ensuring every client can confidently manage their renovation without relying on contractor promises alone. Our process is purpose-built to bridge the gap between design dreams and construction reality. We equip homeowners with clear specifications, budget certainty, and unbiased advice from trusted advisors who share the founder’s lifelong commitment to professionalism, transparency, and homeowner-first service.
We serve the homeowner — not contractors, not vendors. Every recommendation we make is rooted in your best interest.
Remodeling shouldn’t be a guessing game. We provide step-by-step guidance, real cost numbers, and plain-language explanations.
No kickbacks. No commissions. No contractor influence. Just free advice you can trust.
Our advisors are trained to guide, not sell. We offer practical expertise that empowers homeowners to make informed decisions.
No matter who you work with, every advisor follows the same rigorous
process — delivering consistent, high-quality service nationwide.
