Episode Details

Alison sits down with husband-and-wife team Greg and Molly Cook to talk about building a trustworthy, relationship-first painting and light construction business after moving to Camden County “by happenstance.” Greg shares how a summer job he once hated turned into a 25-year career and, in 2018, the launch of Cook’s Painting & Construction—now serving customers across Camden and beyond.

They walk through what they actually do (interior/exterior painting, drywall/ceiling repair, pressure washing, wood-rot fixes, plus vetted referrals for larger construction needs) and why their approach stands out: show up when you say you will, help customers make smart, cost-sensible decisions, and finish on time—even during hurricane season. Alison adds a personal testimonial about her parents’ storm repairs to underscore the team’s responsiveness and honesty.
