Donatelli Castillo Builders Changes Only In Name

Chris Donatelli is now the sole owner and president of our company, renamed Chris Donatelli Builders, Inc. Chris bought out Tony's share in the business after he decided to move on and establish his own company. We appreciated his experience and drive that helped get us to where we are today, and wish him all the best in his new endeavors. Although we now have the name "Chris Donatelli Builders," the business will continue to employ the same experienced office and field staff, and provide the great craftsmanship and service that our company has been known for these past 15 years.

Donatelli Castillo Builders recently lent its support to the new EcoCenter in Palo Alto with its donation of a very unique auction item - a specially crafted birdhouse that is a replica of the old Sea Scout boathouse. The birdhouse will permanently reside on the second floor railing of the new EcoCenter, and is expected to host song sparrows, savannah sparrows and marsh wrens. When completed next year, the new environmental education center will serve 60 schools and 10,000 students in Santa Clara and San Mateo counties.

Chris Interviewed in Professional Remodeler

In the October 2006 edition of Professional Remodeler, Chris Donatelli was interviewed as part of a roundtable discussion on green building, dealing with many of the issues that green builders are facing and the future of green building. Speaking of the future of green building, Chris is quoted saying: “Honestly, I don't think it's peaked. In the future, we're going to see that more and more will be into our process. That's what I hope to see. It won't take arm twisting or an education process to take care of the house correctly; that's just going to be the way it's done.”
