Rehab work was done after Hurricane Andrew hit South Florida and SH’s immediate concern was to help its customers. At SH, one of the company’s mottos is “once a customer, always a customer.” The company took initiative to repair its homes and moved quickly to ensure that they could service client needs. Joining the long rebuilding effort taking place in South Florida at the time, SH performed work valued at approximately $5 million dollars to reconstruct its communities.
