Gina is a family practice physician, and will be owning the business alongside her husband. In their free time, the Fitzsimmons enjoy spending time with family and walking their two dogs.

“Over the past 5 years of providing home care services, I have gained invaluable insight into the pride people take in their homes, and how hard it is for them to find good contractors for home improvement work,” said Sean Fitzsimmons, co-owner of The Patch Boys of Lehigh Valley/Reading. “This realization, combined with my prior experience and knowledge of the construction industry, inspired me to go into business in home repair.”
