Bradley DoeringThe Role
Homerenu is a renovation-tech startup based in the DMV (DC, Virginia, & Maryland). Our mission is to modernize the $450 billion home renovation industry by using technology to make it simpler to renovate. Right now we help contractors automate their sales & admin work with software.
About the CEO
Brad, the CEO, is a serial-founder with a wealth of experience in the home renovation industry. He started his career by building a remodelling firm in Canada, and decided that he wanted to play a bigger role in solving the challenges that homeowners and contractors face. This idea led to him starting and building the largest managed-marketplace for home renovations in Canada over the last 4 years. Brad was recruited by New Ventures in 2022 and left his previous company to pursue the much larger and fragmented market in the US. His goal with Homerenu is to apply his expertise to the American market and build something that can scale and improve the lives of millions of people.
