What makes Jenna Franco of Franco Construction Inc  a good neighbor?  

The Good Neighbor Podcast recently featured Jenna Franco from Franco Construction Incorporated, a licensed and insured general contractor based in Jensen Beach, Florida. This family-owned business offers comprehensive construction services throughout Florida's Treasure Coast, covering everything from kitchen and bathroom renovations to additions, siding, and window installations. What makes Franco Construction stand out is their commitment to being more than just contractors—they're neighbors helping neighbors create their dream spaces.

While Franco Construction serves everywhere from West Palm to Vero Beach, they're flexible about their service area depending on the project scope. As Jenna explained, they're conscious about cost efficiency for their clients. For smaller handyman services, they typically stay within their core service area, but for larger projects, they're willing to travel further. This practical approach demonstrates their commitment to providing value rather than unnecessarily inflating costs. The company has adapted to changing market trends over the years, shifting from hurricane-related exterior renovations like windows and siding to more interior remodels as community needs evolve.

One of the most enlightening parts of the conversation addressed a common misconception about Florida construction: permitting requirements. Many clients, especially those relocating from other states, assume projects can begin immediately after hiring a contractor. However, as Jenna emphasized, Florida's strict permitting laws mean that virtually all construction projects require proper permits before work can commence. Even seemingly simple projects like tub-to-shower conversions need permits, particularly in areas with homeowners associations and condominiums. This reality affects project timelines significantly, and Jenna advised listeners to factor permitting time into their renovation plans.

The personal touch of Franco Construction comes from its family business roots. Jenna shared how she initially wanted to work in her father's construction company as a child, but he encouraged her to pursue other interests. After briefly working in healthcare as a child life specialist, the COVID-19 pandemic created an opportunity for her to temporarily join the family business—and she never left. This personal connection to the company translates into how they approach client relationships, focusing on customized solutions rather than one-size-fits-all approaches. Franco Construction particularly excels at helping older homeowners modify their living spaces to improve accessibility, with tub-to-shower conversions being especially popular.

Beyond their contracting services, Franco Construction offers a valuable resource to the community through their showroom. Available to both clients and non-clients alike, the showroom features exclusive materials from select brands like Tesoro that aren't widely available at standard retailers. This openness extends to their business approach—they offer free estimates and are willing to work with clients to find solutions that fit their needs and budgets. By prioritizing relationship-building over maximizing profits, Franco Construction exemplifies what it means to be a good neighbor in the business community, making them an ideal feature for the Good Neighbor Podcast's mission of connecting local businesses with the communities they serve.
