Tile, sinks and faucets - a kitchen and bath renovation can be so overwhelming! Today I’m joined by Emily and Dawn of Torrco Design Center, who reveal how having the right team behind you can take the overwhelm out of the process. They also provide some great tips and best practices for accomplishing the next renovation project you tackle in your home, along with the pitfalls to watch for, and so much more.  Emily Becker Fasano is a Senior Sales & Design Associate and part owner of Torrco, a family-owned plumbing, heating, and HVAC supply wholesaler with a rich history spanning over 107 years based in Waterbury, Connecticut. As the fourth generation of the family business started by Emily’s great grandfather in 1917, she works alongside her husband Chris Fasano,Torrco’s president, and her sister Molly (Stamford location).  Emily is based in Torrco’s Design Center in New Haven, where she specializes in delivering a knowledgeable and comprehensive design experience for her clients.  Dawn Corbo is Showroom Director for Torrco Design Center and she has been with the company for 20 years, starting in her career in the showroom as an internship, while finishing a BA in Interior Design at University of New Haven. Dawn’s experience with clients over the years, and managing showrooms, helps her to lead the Torrco Design Center team in creating an exceptional client experience. Although Dawn’s focus is now on the business side of the showroom, she fulfills her passion for design by working closely with Torrco’s vendors, building relationships with the Builder, Architect, Designer community and designing the Torrco showrooms to stay on trend and inspirational. If you’re in Connecticut and have a Torrco Design Center in your local area, I encourage you to visit their showroom to learn more about all the products and services they provide for homeowners. With the sea of options and information available, having professionals like Emily, Dawn and the team at Torrco by your side through the renovation process can make all the difference, and I’m so happy that they stopped by the podcast to share their expertise with you today.  You can watch the video of this episode with Emily and Dawn, and all the interviews I have our other amazing guests on my YouTube channel, www.youtube.com/@jillkalmaninteriors.  I have a freebie that you are not going to want to miss, called Find Your Interior Design Style!
