We had the good fortune of connecting with Jimmy Powers Jr and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Jimmy, what is the most important factor behind your success?
I think the most important factor behind our success is that we’re about helping people. We aren’t trying to get rich quick and genuinely care for people and want to help make their dreams come true and not have to take out a loan in order to accomplish it.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
We are a general contracting company. We do roofs and fences but also remodels. We’re in a little bit of everything from pouring. Concrete to fixing drywall. It wasn’t easy but seeing the end result of each project is a joy. We’re very grateful to have business during this time and want to do our very best to help everyone that uses us.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
I’d say a breakfast at The original pancake house. Then head to the Fort Worth Zoo, it’s beautiful there. After that go to Stockyards and have lunch at shake shack. Then go to Sundance square to walk around downtown Fort Worth and afterwards dinner at Hard Eight BBQ.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
My father. He’s taught me how to love and work hard for the people you care about. He’s got the biggest heart and goes above and beyond for any and everybody. Shout out to him for making me want to be a better man.
