Meet The Team | Keith Weisman
Can you believe it’s already the middle of August? With schools back in session, this time of year is always incredibly busy for everyone.
Responding to Major Events
Our team has been hard at work with our regular day-to-day projects, but we’ve also been tackling some significant challenges. Earlier this month, we sent our Large Loss Team to South Carolina to assist with the aftermath of Hurricane/Tropical Storm Debby, which made landfall on August 5th. Additionally, we responded to a two-alarm fire in Johnstown, Colorado, earlier this week.
Teach the Team Spotlight: Keith Weisman
Each month, we take the opportunity to shine a spotlight on a team member from one of our six office locations. This month, we’re excited to introduce you to Keith Weisman from our Lafayette branch.
Keith was born and raised in Champaign, Illinois. In 2022, he and his family made the move to Maurice, Louisiana. Keith jumped straight into the workforce after graduation, starting his career in residential construction, where he spent six years. A major highlight during this period was building a $14.9 million mansion. He also became a journeyman and joined the Carpenters Union.
Before joining Guarantee Restoration Services in June 2022, Keith spent 24 years with the Carpenters Union, focusing on commercial projects. He led teams in constructing banks, hospitals, restaurants, grocery stores, and universities.
A Peek into Keith’s Personal Life
Keith is happily married to his wife, Rebbecca, and together they have seven children, four of whom they have adopted. Their daughter is set to marry in October, adding another member to their growing family. The Weismans are active in sports, camping, and various adventures. They also love to travel, with an annual trip to Mexico being a family tradition.
Football Passion
The Weisman family are passionate football fans. Keith is a die-hard Dallas Cowboys supporter, while Rebbecca cheers for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Together, they’ve visited seven NFL stadiums and aim to visit them all eventually.
Words of Wisdom from Keith
When asked for his advice to employees and company leaders, Keith offered some valuable insights: “For employees, approach your tasks with responsibility and accountability. Be proactive in solving problems and take pride in delivering high-quality work. Uphold strong ethical standards in all your decisions. Your integrity will build trust and loyalty within your team and with stakeholders. For leaders, your actions set the tone for the entire team. Lead by example, demonstrate the work ethic and values you expect from others, and maintain high standards of integrity in everything you do. Respect your colleagues, follow company policies, and always act in the best interest of the organization.”
Why Keith Loves Working at GRS
When asked what he enjoys most about working at Guarantee Restoration Services, Keith said, “I love working for GRS because it fosters an environment where innovation, collaboration, and personal growth are truly valued. The team’s passion and drive inspire me to give my best every day. The company’s commitment to employee well-being and professional development makes it a place where I feel supported and motivated to excel.”
Embracing Life’s Uncertainties
Keith also shared a recent life lesson: “I’ve recently learned the importance of embracing uncertainty in life. I’ve come to realize that not everything can be planned or controlled, and that’s okay. By staying open to change and viewing challenges as opportunities for growth, I’ve found a greater sense of peace and resilience. This mindset has helped me navigate life’s unpredictability with more confidence and optimism.”
