Daily Herald: Chicago-based Veteran Opens Villa Park Miracle Method

Fred Haas, 62, has revitalized his career by extending the life of countertops, sinks, tile, bathtubs and more with refinishing services that cost up to 75 percent less than the cost to replace them.

A former Electrician’s Mate Second Class submariner, Haas has been a general contractor for most of his life, running his own construction business for 25 years. It was there that he learned the art of renovation, and his career had him working on everything from condos to hospitals. After the recession hit, Haas became worried about the future of his company, and with his passion for being a business owner driving him, he discovered Miracle Method .

“My future goal is simply to become a dominant player in the Chicago metro area,” Haas said. “I hope to have three locations running within the next five years. With the system and business plan Miracle Method has in place, combined with the money saving services I provide that any homeowner can benefit from, that’s a goal I know I can achieve.”
