Episode Transcript

(00:00):
My good friend Lyndal.
Woodruff is joining me from Woodruff Windows.
Hey,
Lyndol,
how you doing,
Bud?
I'm great,
Jim,
how are you,
man?
Hey,
I'm doing great.
Thank you so much.
Um So,
hey,
I wanted to talk to you today because I know you guys have a great heritage in the window business.
You guys have been doing this a very long time.
And so I wanted everyone to understand that you guys just didn't start up yesterday.

(00:23):
You're not just an average window company.
How long has Woodruff Windows been in business?
My dad started it in 1982.
So 41 years.
Yeah,
it's a long and he's still involved,
isn't he?
Actually?
You know,
it's funny.
He retired last week.
00,
did he?
Oh,
I,
so why do I have a feeling though?

(00:44):
He,
he still interjects here and there 100% and he,
he still still go to job sites.
He loves watching the guys work because our installers have been with us for a really long time and they're just great people.
They're fun to be around.
So he,
you know,
he'll always visit job sites and mingle with the homeowners and stuff like that.
That'll never stop.
So,
maybe he really hasn't retired.

(01:06):
He's just been reassigned.
He has to quality assurance and that's about it.
There you go,
there you go.
Run appointments anymore or anything like that.
Yeah.
And,
and so,
I mean,
he really was the foundation of the business.
You grew up in this business,
didn't you?
I grew up around it.
Yes,
I sure did.

(01:26):
Yeah.
It was interesting getting to know the people at the factory and,
yeah,
and it is,
it is a family business.
Um,
it's got your name all over it and you cover a lot of geographic area in,
in the greater Dallas area.
Why don't you talk about specific areas?

(01:47):
You really like to help people with their window replacement needs?
Well,
right now the super laser focus is Collin County.
So Frisco McKinney,
Plano Prosper,
kind of kind of those areas.
A lot of Mckinney.
And really the reason being is a lot of these single family homes that are in Mckinney.

(02:07):
They're all,
you know,
pushing 20 to 25 years old and they all have the original aluminum builder grade windows and starting to fog up and,
you know,
it,
it's really big wear and tear on air conditioning systems.
So we really wanted to focus on this community as our first area of like,
well,
not first area but immediate area of really intentional homeowner help because it really needs it big time.

(02:34):
And there's not like a Mckinney is very family oriented and there's not a,
like a family oriented window replacement business in the community.
No.
And that,
yeah.
And that's just it.
That's why I want to talk about this today.
I mean,
Woodruff Windows.
It's,
it's your name,
your company.

(02:55):
You are part of the community and people really do like to buy from people and not entities.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
So,
you know,
here we're very involved with the mckinney Chamber,
uh,
the Rotary Club,
um,
you know,
different nonprofits that we help support here in the,
in the community and give back.
So,
you know,
it's,

(03:15):
it's such a cool little community out here in mckinney.
Um,
and like I said,
very family oriented.
So this is the area that we're really focused in on right now.
And of course,
you know,
website submissions come in from different places in Dallas,
but our address,
our office address is here in mckinney.
So most of our submissions do come from mckinney or just surrounding areas.

(03:35):
Um So,
yeah,
this is where we're focused right now.
This is where we're digging our roots.
And this is where I'm raising my seven month old baby.
And this is where,
you know,
our,
uh,
our,
some of our new hires are raising their families and this is where we go to church and this is where we play.
And so this is the community that we want to help family owned and operated in a family community.

(03:57):
Lindol Woodruff.
Thank you so much for joining me today here on the program.
By the way,
everybody,

Call them up,

see at your windows,
especially if you're living in a home that has not had the windows replaced in 10,
15 or 20 years.
Thanks Lyndol.
Appreciate it.
