Dave Marvin, one of

the principals of M3, moved to Peachtree City in

1991 and became affiliated with FitzGerald &

Sons, a family-owned plumbing company operated by

his uncle and cousins. For the first three years,

Marvin, an unrestricted licensed plumber,

supervised plumbing crews engaged in a variety of

jobs.

He became

supervisor at FitzGerald in 1994. During this

period, Marvin found himself involved not only in

plumbing work, but also in restoration in

situations where his workers had to go into walls

to stop leaks, make repairs, and replace piping.

In 1996, FitzGerald

extended its plumbing services into remodeling,

including bathroom and kitchen renovations, and

Marvin found himself directly involved in this

type of work. A design center was added in fall

of 1999.

In the meantime,

Marvin's brother-in-law Todd Melzer had come to

work for FitzGerald. A member of a home-building

family on Long Island, NY, Melzer began working

for his father at Rainbow Properties Inc.,

gaining experience over 12 years in concrete

work, framing, cabinetry, electrical and tile

work in the custom home and remodeling industry.

In March of this

year, the decision was made by Marvin and Melzer

to spin off the remodeling operation into a

full-fledged remodeling company, M3 Building

Services.

"We're a

family owned and operated business," said

Marvin. "We take pride in our workmanship

and our attention to detail. We offer a two-year

warranty on all our work performed at the

customer's home, and we also offer free

estimates."

Marvin emphasized

that the same quality products found in a

customer's home are utilized in M3's remodeling

work. "Our skilled workers are courteous,

and they maintain a clean work area," he

said. "To us, customer satisfaction is the

key element to a success business."

The company also

works with commercial, industrial and

institutional customers.

Melzer added that

the company's services are "unlimited"

when it comes to creating a "dream"

kitchen, bathroom or even finishing out

basements.

"Our design

center gives our customers an ideal place where

they can select samples of granite, marble and

tile; select colors, patterns and shapes; and

determine heights, widths and distance between

items," he said.

M3 can also handle

putting in screened-in porches, window and door

replacement, and is currently finishing out a

bonus room in a Griffin home. In addition, it is

a licensed plumbing contractor.

Customers of the

company confirm that M3 has been successful in

reaching these goals. James Cannon of Jonesboro

said he hired another company to put in cabinets

in a den bathroom.

"That company

had to tear out the wall to make the cabinets

fit, and I got M3 to come in a repair the

damage," he said. "They didn't rush,

took their time with the job, and when they had

finished, you couldn't tell that the wall had

been damaged."

Jean Shealy of

Fayetteville said that a cultured marble jacuzzi

tub in her home had cracked during the winter.

"M3 replaced the damaged tub, and their

workers left everything as if nothing had

happened," she said." They were

courteous, respectful and easy to work

with."

Taylor Kinnett of

Griffin said he hired M3 to remodel a bathroom

and fix damage below the bath after a leak in a

shower drain. He praised the remodeling company's

work in installing a simulated granite shower

with a steam unit, putting in a slate tile floor

and granite vanities, and fixing the damage in

the basement.

Allyn Schultz of

Peachtree City had the company pull out an old

tub and the tile in a bathroom and replace it

with a cultured marble walk-in shower.

"I was

delighted with the work," she said.

"The workers were very professional and

friendly, and I was very comfortable with their

being in the house when I wasn't there."

Current work for M3

includes projects in Peachtree City,

Fayetteville, Griffin, Sharpsburg, and Newnan,

and the company has also done work in Clayton

County, Pike County and in Atlanta.

The M3 offices,

including the design center, can be found at 103

Auburn Court, Suite 5, in Peachtree City. The
