Mike Nagel, CGR, CAPS, was named the 2007 chairman of the NAHB Remodelers, formerly NAHB Remodelors™ Council, during the International Builders’ Show in Orlando, Fla.

As chairman of the leading professional organization for residential remodeling, Nagel represents more than 14,000 remodeling industry members of NAHB.

“Whether it’s amplifying our consumer awareness, building legislative influence or increasing professionalism, I plan to raise the bar in this critical year for the remodeling industry,” said Nagel. “Continuing the work of my predecessors, it’s time to take our industry to the next level.”

Nagel is president of the design/build remodeling firm Remodel One, which he founded in 1985 and is headquartered in Roselle, Ill.

He holds a variety of leadership positions within the remodeling industry and serves on industry trade show and publication advisory boards.

Nagel also is an NAHB national life director, Build-PAC trustee and life director of his local home builders association.

In addition, he teaches a consumer awareness course in the Chicago area designed to educate the general public on the remodeling process and how to hire a remodeling contractor.
