We have several projects at different stages and would like to inform everyone on our position moving forward during this unusual business climate.<br /><br />In a March 22nd press conference, Colorado Governor Jared Polis ordered all non-essential workplaces to cut their hours in half. He also stated that exempt from this order are cri<span>tical workplaces, including the construction industry. The following day, Denver&rsquo;s mayor issued a similar order and today Jefferson and Adams County. As far as Tinker Homes is aware, all permits submitted to cities will continue to be pushed forward.</span><br /><br />Tinker Homes is confident continuing work on all projects knowing that suppliers and sub-contractors are included under the critical workplace umbrella. While we continue moving projects forward, we will be practicing responsible social distancing and disinfecting all job sites intensively.<br /><br />More than ever, we believe in the strength of our communities and are here to answer all questions. Please feel free to reach out at any time.<br /><br />Sincerely,<br />&#8203;<br />Tinker Homes Team</div>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[Monday Morning Coffee with Inside The Firm]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.tinkerhomes.com/blog/monday-morning-coffee-with-inside-the-firm]]></link><comments><![CDATA[http://www.tinkerhomes.com/blog/monday-morning-coffee-with-inside-the-firm#comments]]></comments><pubDate>Wed, 26 Feb 2020 20:32:41 GMT</pubDate><category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.tinkerhomes.com/blog/monday-morning-coffee-with-inside-the-firm</guid><description><![CDATA[A few months ago, President of Tinker Homes, Brian Tinker, joined Inside The Firm podcast for a Monday Morning Coffee episode. &nbsp;We discuss how Tinker Homes and F9 Productions started working together and some tips we have learned over the years in the construction industry. &nbsp;Take a listen to the podcast below.Listen to more podcasts by Inside The Firm:&nbsp;​www.insidethefirmpodcast.com [...] ]]></description><content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="paragraph">A few months ago, President of Tinker Homes, Brian Tinker, joined <em>Inside The Firm</em> podcast for a Monday Morning Coffee episode. &nbsp;We discuss how Tinker Homes and <a href="http://www.f9productions.com" target="_blank">F9 Productions</a> started working together and some tips we have learned over the years in the construction industry. &nbsp;Take a listen to the podcast below.<br><br>Listen to more podcasts by <em>Inside The Firm</em>:&nbsp;<span style="color:rgb(51, 51, 51)">&#8203;</span><span style="color:rgb(51, 51, 51)"><a href="http://www.insidethefirmpodcast.com" target="_blank">www.insidethefirmpodcast.com</a></span></div><div><div id="917771090171865082" align="left" style="width: 100%; overflow-y: hidden;" class="wcustomhtml"><iframe width="100%" height="166" scrolling="no" frameborder="no" allow="autoplay" src="https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/727774144&amp;color=%23ff5500&amp;auto_play=false&amp;hide_related=false&amp;show_comments=true&amp;show_user=true&amp;show_reposts=false&amp;show_teaser=true"></iframe></div></div>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[Tinker Homes Top 2 Pro-Tips When Building an Assisted Living Facility]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.tinkerhomes.com/blog/tinker-homes-top-2-pro-tips-when-building-an-assisted-living-facility]]></link><comments><![CDATA[http://www.tinkerhomes.com/blog/tinker-homes-top-2-pro-tips-when-building-an-assisted-living-facility#comments]]></comments><pubDate>Fri, 06 Sep 2019 19:25:32 GMT</pubDate><category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.tinkerhomes.com/blog/tinker-homes-top-2-pro-tips-when-building-an-assisted-living-facility</guid><description><![CDATA[In Tinker Homes second podcast episode we reveal our best two tips for building an Assisted Living Facility.When you are ready to to venture into the Assisted Living industry, Tinker Homes is here to discuss your project and deliver outstanding results - for you and your future resisdents.
