Extending a helping hand to our community

By Brent Irish, owner of Closet Envy

First and foremost, my heart goes out to everyone affected by the devastation caused by Hurricanes Helene and Milton. These storms have left a profound mark on our beloved Tampa Bay area. My home and business, like many of yours, have experienced severe flooding, bringing the reality of this hardship close to home.

In the face of such adversity, I am reminded of the strength and resilience that bind us, as a community. It is this spirit that compels me to extend not just my sympathy, but also tangible support and resources to help each of you rebuild and recover.

Complimentary In-Home Design Consultations

Our Closet Envy designers are here to assist you by assessing your existing space and working with you to design personalized solutions. We use wardrobe and space inventory worksheets to collaborate closely with our clients, helping to design or replace your storage systems based on your unique needs.

Closet and Storage System Removal Service

We understand the complexities involved in custom storage systems, especially when damage has occurred. To support homeowners, we are offering services to carefully remove and repurpose components from your existing closets and storage spaces. Our team can assess which accessories, doors, or items may be salvaged and help reincorporate them into a new, functional design. Also, remember to record possible deductions using pub 547 for casualties, disaster and thefts.

Professional Organizing Services

With qualifying purchases, we are offering professional organizing services to help restore order to your life. Our team understands what you are going through and is dedicated to making the process smoother, both before and after the installation of your new Closet Envy storage systems.

Brent Irish currently serves as the owner of Closet Envy Tampa Bay and director of business and franchise development.
