Paul
Tremblay, one of Trumbull-Nelson’s most capable
Project Superintendents, knows the inside of a
church. This is not to suggest that you’ll hear him
proselytizing about his religious faith. Those
familiar with Paul know him as a straight-shooter
who lives by the Golden Rule. Rather, it’s
reflective of the fact that he has become the
“turn-to” guy when the Company builds or renovates
church facilities. Notable Upper Valley projects
that reflect his handiwork include the United
Methodist Church of Lebanon; St. Thomas Episcopal
Church renovation, in Hanover; and Dartmouth College
Church of Christ renovation, in Hanover. His broad
experience at supervising such projects has actually
earned him the nickname, “St. Paul.” What he brings
to each and every T-N undertaking, whether church,
school or commercial pursuit, is a passion for
creating construction excellence and a strong
customer service philosophy.
Paul, a native of Lebanon, NH, has been associated
with Trumbull-Nelson for 19 years. He came to the
Company with a background that include a
4-year stint in the Navy, building construction for
a Texas general contractor, and 13 years of work in
a supervisory role for a large local printer.
Paul’s interest in construction is continually
piqued by the challenges associated with renovation
work. In fact, one of his toughest, but most
interesting challenges as a Superintendent involved
renovations to the Sheldon Library at…are you
ready…St. Paul’s School, in Concord, New Hampshire.
Renovation to the historic building involved a
variety of very unique stone and millwork
applications. “There were 47 molding profiles on the
Library project,” indicates Tremblay.
“Notable Upper Valley projects that reflect his
handiwork include the United Methodist Church of
Lebanon; St. Thomas Episcopal Church renovation, in
Hanover; and Dartmouth College Church of Christ
renovation, in Hanover.”
Though he remains steadfast in all of his work
efforts, Paul relates that job duties are generally
much easier today than in years past. “My work is
typically less physical, with much more
(companywide) emphasis on safety.” When he’s not
working on a T-N jobsite, Paul may be found surfing
the web for unique treasures (he collects old
bottles), or he may be tackling a home project in
his woodworking shop.
Paul, and Joann, his wife of 44 years, reside in
Enfield, NH. Family outings and reunions keep them
both busy. It’s easy to understand why. They have 5
children, 16 grandchildren and 4 great
grandchildren.
Trumbull-Nelson Construction Company values its long
relationship with Paul. Church project or not, the
Company knows that Paul Tremblay approaches each
building and renovation task with a ‘religious
fervor’. And Company client’s quickly come to
appreciate his strong commitment to quality and
service. |
