Our Team

Four leads who stay on the project from the first email to the last touch-up.

Lead Project Guide

Maya Chen

Maya is the person who turns a kitchen complaint into a written scope. She visits the house, asks how the morning actually goes, and keeps the email thread in one place so you are not retelling the story to a new name each week.

She has guided room projects for fifteen years, first as a coordinator for finish crews and now as the lead who decides whether a job fits Get Betta Soon. If a request needs a different trade to lead, she says that in the first reply. Households stay with her because the schedule on Monday still matches the note from the week before.

On site she checks protection at the doors, confirms which rooms are off limits, and walks the punch list in daylight. She would rather delay a finish day than sign off on a door that rubs.

Carpentry Lead

Andre Brooks

Andre builds the parts of a room you touch: doors, casing, benches, shelves, and the trim that makes a new floor look finished. He scribes to wavy walls and would rather recut a piece than fill a gap with caulk and hope.

He started as a trim carpenter and still keeps a notebook of profiles from houses he has worked in, so a new casing can match an old one when that is what you want. Built-ins are drawn with your table height and your storage, not with a default from a catalog.

He walks homeowners through how a hinge lid or a shelf pin works before the piece is painted, so the useful version gets built the first time.

Color and Finish Lead

Priya Shah

Priya chooses paint, tile, metal, and stain the way the room is lived in. She leaves sample boards overnight because a color that looks soft at noon can turn cold under a lamp. She writes down sheen by room so a hallway can be washed and a ceiling can stay quiet.

Before Get Betta Soon she specified finishes for remodel crews and got tired of colors being picked from a screen. She now requires a daylight check for any surface larger than a backsplash accent. Households often keep her notes after the job because they explain why a white was rejected.

She also reviews caulk color, grout, and the small hardware that photographs never show. Those choices are on the punch list beside the walls.

Flooring Lead

Luis Ortega

Luis plans floors from the subfloor up. He listens for bounce, checks moisture, and measures every door before a plank is locked. A handsome board on a soft patch is not a result he will leave in a hallway.

He has laid hardwood, engineered boards, and tile in kitchens and entries, and he is particular about transitions. Stairs, sliders, and the room you are not replacing get a drawing, not a guess on the last day. Materials that need to acclimate stay in the house until they are ready.

At the end he walks the floor in socks with you. Raised nails, proud seams, and vents that rock are fixed before the job is called complete.

How the team shows up

You will not meet a rotating cast. The lead for your scope is named in the estimate. Helpers are introduced. If a tile setter or glass installer joins for a defined task, Maya writes that into the schedule the week before.

Crews work Mon – Sat between 8:00 am and 6:00 pm unless you and Maya agree to a different window in writing. Shoes, music, and the rooms that stay private are covered before the first morning. Questions go to the same email thread so nothing lives only in a conversation on the driveway.
