DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of East Georgia
David, Leesa and Eric Anderson
How We Got Started
Eric, David and Leesa Anderson opened DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of East Georgia in June of 2016. Their business office is in Swainsboro. They also serve the areas of Vidalia, Dublin, Metter and other surrounding areas.
They became interested in buying a DreamMaker franchise after they found the Code of Values™ were not just words on a wall, but rather implemented into everyday activities within the DreamMaker business setting. They have owned and operated Anderson Homes, Inc. since early 2000 in the Swainsboro area.
The family also lived in Texas, Colorado and Oklahoma before doing mission work in Singapore for 3 ½ years.
Eric became involved in the construction/remodeling industry early on.
“I worked with a block mason while I was in high school, doing extra school (homeschool) so I could work two days a week. I then worked with a roofer part-time and spent several years doing volunteer facilities maintenance/improvement work for a Baptist mission organization,” said Eric. He started his company and built his first spec home when he was 22. When the new home market slowed down, he and his dad branched out into remodeling. “We’ve been doing remodeling ever since,” Eric said.
In 1999, when his brother and he started a vinyl siding business, his sister, Leesa, joined on as the bookkeeper. She has maintained that position through the closing of that business and the opening of Anderson Building Co., which was later renamed Anderson Homes, Inc.
Their father, David, became involved in his son’s business in the early 2000s when Eric needed help. Although the elder Anderson said his construction skills were limited when he joined the business, he still wanted to help his son succeed. He now has years of construction experience and continues to be a vital part of the business.
“When our customers are very happy with our finished product, it brings a real sense of accomplishment,” David said.
