Retex Habitat Volunteer Day – June 2023

Katelyn Lewis • June 26, 2023

On Friday, Retex’s John Gordon, Josh and Katelyn Lewis joined our friends from Lock & Key Realty to volunteer with Richmond’s Habitat for Humanity on a new build off Terminal Ave.

We got pre-e-e-tty comfortable hanging sheetrock, splitting into two teams of four to finish the drywall for the two upstairs bedrooms.


This new construction home is being sponsored by Lock & Key’s brokerage River Fox Realty, and helping out was a great way to spend a rainy day!


We love our monthly volunteer days, especially with our friends, as we give back to our local community. Meanwhile, if you’re a homeowner in need of help with your home’s exteriors, give us a call – 804-258-6300 – to schedule an appointment today.

How often you need to replace your home's siding depends on the material, but most siding products last about 30-50 years before needing replacement.
