When homeowners search for a remodeling company, they often look for experience, quality, and reliability. But how can you be sure a contractor truly meets the highest standards? One way is through NARI Accreditation—a rigorous, industry-recognized designation that sets remodelers apart. At J.S. Brown & Co., we are proud to be the only NARI-accredited remodeler in the immediate Central Ohio area. But what does that mean for you?
What Is NARI Accreditation?
The National Association of the Remodeling Industry (NARI) is a professional organization dedicated to advancing the remodeling industry by upholding the highest standards of quality, ethics, and professionalism.
NARI Accreditation is an exclusive designation earned by companies that undergo an in-depth third-party review of their business and remodeling practices. This process evaluates financial stability, ethical business operations, customer service, and technical knowledge, ensuring that accredited companies operate at the highest level of professionalism.
How Is Accreditation Different from Certification?
Many homeowners are familiar with industry certifications, such as NARI’s Certified Remodeler (CR) or Certified Kitchen & Bath Remodeler (CKBR). While these are valuable credentials that recognize an individual’s expertise, accreditation applies to an entire company.
For a remodeling firm to be NARI-accredited, it must meet strict criteria that cover every aspect of its business operations, client experience, and quality assurance measures—something that individual certifications alone do not guarantee.
Why Does NARI Accreditation Matter?
NARI Accreditation is not easy to achieve, and that’s intentional. The designation ensures that only the most qualified, ethical, and financially stable companies earn this distinction.
To become accredited, a remodeling firm must: ✔️ Undergo a detailed review of financial and operational practices to prove business longevity and reliability. ✔️ Adhere to NARI’s Code of Ethics, which promotes transparency, integrity, and quality craftsmanship. ✔️ Demonstrate a proven track record of customer satisfaction, including documentation of completed projects and client testimonials. ✔️ Showcase industry expertise and ongoing education to stay ahead of best practices and innovations.
For homeowners, this means peace of mind knowing that your remodel is in the hands of a company that has been thoroughly vetted and holds itself to the highest industry standards.
What Does NARI Accreditation Mean for You?
Many homeowners have never heard of NARI Accreditation before. However, choosing an accredited remodeler can make a significant difference in your remodeling experience. Here’s why:
✔️ Proven Expertise – You’re working with a company that has demonstrated technical knowledge and top-tier craftsmanship. ✔️ Financial Stability & Business Longevity – Accredited firms have been vetted to ensure they are financially sound and well-established. ✔️ Ethical Business Practices – NARI-accredited companies adhere to high ethical and professional standards. ✔️ Better Project Outcomes – With a strong foundation in project management and client service, accredited firms are more likely to deliver projects on time, within budget, and to the highest quality standards. ✔️ Accountability & Consumer Protection – NARI holds accredited companies accountable, giving homeowners an added layer of protection when hiring a remodeler.
