Certified Graduate Remodeler (CGR)
CGR Stands for Professionalism, Experience, and Commitment to Quality
A home is the largest investment that most Americans will ever make. It is also one of the most important.
This is why the NAHB Remodelers of the National Association of Home Builders created the Certified Graduate Remodeler (CGR) Program. The CGR designation helps you, the consumer, determine which remodeling contractor you can count on to do a professional job.
The CGR designation indicates that a remodeler has completed the requirements of the CGR professional designation program, including educational credits, prescribed business standards and experience. If your remodeler has earned the CGR designation, you can be assured that he or she also understands the value of continuing education and is ready to do his or her best for you.
