Craftsmanship, community, and excellence in remodeling By Like Media Team
For AJ Gennaro, construction isn’t just a business—it’s a family tradition. More than 40 years ago, his father built the original Gennaro Contracting in St. Louis, Missouri, passing down the trade skills and values that define a great contractor: honesty, craftsmanship, and a commitment to doing the job right.
When AJ moved to the Pacific Northwest in 2015, he saw firsthand how difficult it was for homeowners to find dependable contractors. With a strong foundation in hands-on work and business, he set out to change that. “Neighbors kept telling me how hard it was to find someone they could trust for home projects,” AJ recalls. His commitment to detail, personal service, and integrity quickly earned a loyal client base, and the business took off.
Gennaro Contracting started as a full-service operation—handling everything from new home construction to handyman work—but eventually refined its focus to residential remodeling and composite deck construction with maintenance-free railing. “We initially tried to be everything to all our clients,” AJ says. “Now, we’ve honed in on what we do best and deliver at a high level every time.”
AJ emphasizes education, communication, and innovation to keep his team at the forefront of the industry. Attending industry-leading events, such as the International Builders Show in Las Vegas, keeps them ahead with the latest techniques and materials. “Learning from the best lets us bring that experience back to our community and excel at what we do,” AJ says.
This dedication to quality is backed by top industry certifications. Gennaro Contracting is home to a Certified Remodeler and a Certified Project Manager through the National Association of the Remodeling Industry (NARI), as well as certifications from Andersen Windows, Trex, and Deckorators. They’re also active members of the Gig Harbor Chamber and the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB), reinforcing their reputation as a trusted name in home renovation and remodeling.
But for AJ, success isn’t just about remodeling homes—it’s about building community. Gennaro Contracting partners with Kiwanis, Rotary, and Habitat for Humanity, helping raise funds for local initiatives and contributing to housing projects that make a real difference. “We want to make a difference—not just through our work with clients and employees, but also by giving back to the community.”
Customer satisfaction is the foundation of their business. AJ ensures a smooth experience by setting clear expectations from the start. “We take the time to walk clients through our process, address potential challenges, and plan carefully to make the project as seamless as possible for homeowners,” he explains.
As Gennaro Contracting looks to the future, its mission remains the same: helping homeowners fall in love with their homes again. From kitchen and bath remodels to custom decks and community initiatives, Gennaro Contracting remains committed to its motto: “Building Better Together.”
