Digging Holes on Enfield Ave. for Richmond Habitat

retex team

The Retex team created all sorts of holes at a Richmond Habitat Build site in the Bellmeade neighborhood on Friday, March 25.


This home, built by Habitat for Humanity in 2006, is going through major renovations to support the next Richmond family. Josh, Katelyn, Mark, and Caleb K. spent the morning digging holes for the foundation of a new deck on the back of the house, while Caleb H. carved out space for a french door to provide deck access.


We love giving back to our community and working alongside each other every month with @habitatrva. Learn more about Richmond Habitat at https://richmondhabitat.org, and check out more photos from our volunteer day below.

While some of these contractors might be reputable, others — known as “storm chasers” — follow severe weather events, hoping to cash in on vulnerable homeowners.

Online pricing calculators and AI tools are great for ballpark numbers, but they don’t know the local labor market and specific window options for your home.

Unfortunately there are folks out there more concerned with a quick sale than with helping you with your home exteriors.

By Katelyn Lewis June 13, 2025
This Midlothian homeowner originally reached out to Retex in October 2023 for a roof repair for a leak in her kitchen as well as a roof replacement estimate. RETEX’s Andy Connor met with her, gave her both quotes, and we repaired her roof. She reached back out to Andy in March 2024, ready to move forward with RETEX on replacing her roof.
