Cascade Bank is Well Equipped to Help Alpine Cleaning and Restoration.

It's funny how you never think it will happen to you. Floods, fires, vandalism, or even that lovely piece of artwork you hid away — but not well enough — from your pet. It happens more often than you can imagine.

Property damage can be devastating when it does happen, and it always takes you by surprise. John Kaczka from Alpine Cleaning and Restoration knows all about it, and has made it his business to be better than a shoulder to cry on. He fixes the damage.

"We average around 75 jobs a month, covering a wide range of restoration projects," John said. Alpine Cleaning and Restoration has carried on and developed a service tradition that began in 1949 when his father opened the doors. In 1980 John bought the company from his dad and has been slowly and steadily growing it. "With any restoration project I have the attitude that where there's a will, there's a way. We can do it, we just have to determine how." Alpine has the certified personnel and skills to restore buildings and possessions "to a pre-loss condition where you don't even know there was damage," John explained.

Alpine's services are almost too varied to describe. They have a wide range of specialized equipment from vacuums to special dryers. When a home has heavy damage, they take the contents of the damaged building, clean it, dry it, and take care of it in "Pack-out" crate storage until the building is ready.

"Our motto is: service plus sensitivity plus sincerity = clientele. Cascade amplifies that and helps us to stay on track." John chose Cascade bank "because my personal banker at my old bank went away and my personal service went away and I became a number. I couldn't get anything to happen, absolutely nothing. It was like talking to a tree. Then I moved my accounts to Cascade and it's been a great working relationship ever since."

Cascade Bank shares John's can-do attitude. John said, "I was traveling in Oregon looking for a company truck. I found the perfect truck and figured I could put the expense on a credit card, but the truck dealer wouldn't do it. I wanted to drive the truck back with me and avoid the extra trip. I didn't know what to do so I called Cascade. They told me to hand the phone to the financial person. 5 minutes later the dealer hung up the phone and said "sign here and here, here's the keys, good-bye." Cascade had arranged a bank transfer with my Line of Credit and I was out of there in 15 minutes. It was really special, like magic. I really appreciate that kind of relationship."

Cascade Bank works hard to provide that kind of magic. Our team of experienced business bankers are well equipped to help Alpine Cleaning and Restoration with their financial needs. That way John Kaczka and his team can focus on restoring their customer's homes and dreams back to their original glory.
