Meet Josh Dembicki | CoFounder and Owner

We had the good fortune of connecting with Josh Dembicki and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Josh, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
Starting Bellwether Windows, Siding, & Doors was driven by a combination of passion, market need, and a desire to make a meaningful impact in our community.

First and foremost, I saw a significant gap in the home renovation market for high-quality, reliable exterior remodeling services. Homeowners were often frustrated with subpar craftsmanship, poor communication, and lackluster customer service. I wanted to create a company that would set new standards in these areas and truly prioritize the customer experience.

Secondly, I’ve always had a passion for craftsmanship and design. The idea of transforming homes and enhancing their curb appeal while also improving their durability and energy efficiency was incredibly appealing to me. I knew that with the right team and a commitment to excellence, we could deliver outstanding results that would delight our customers and stand the test of time.

Lastly, I wanted to build a business that could positively contribute to the local community by creating jobs, fostering professional growth, and supporting local suppliers. At Bellwether, we believe in being more than just a service provider—we aim to be a trusted partner in our customers’ home improvement journeys and an integral part of the neighborhoods we serve.

By focusing on quality, innovation, and a customer-first approach, we’ve been able to carve out a niche in the market and grow steadily, all while staying true to our core values and mission.

Our journey to where we are today has not been easy. We’ve faced numerous challenges, from navigating market fluctuations to managing the complexities of large-scale projects. One of the biggest hurdles was establishing our brand identity in a competitive market.

To navigate these obstacles, we’ve focused on continuous improvement and learning. We’ve refined our processes, invested in training for our team, and always prioritized customer feedback. This approach has allowed us to turn challenges into opportunities for growth and improvement.

One key lesson I’ve learned along the way is the importance of resilience and adaptability. The market and customer needs are constantly evolving, and it’s essential to stay flexible and responsive.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I’d love to give a shoutout to the Contractor Alliance Program at James Hardie. Their support has been instrumental in our growth over the years. They’ve helped us tremendously in developing our brand identity and becoming the best James Hardie installers in the state. Their guidance and resources have been invaluable in ensuring that we consistently deliver top-quality service to our customers.

Specifically, Matt, Willie, Jim, and Cole have been incredible partners in supporting our window business and helping us to grow. Their dedication and assistance have played a significant role in our success, enabling us to provide our customers with high-quality window solutions.

These partnerships have been crucial to our journey, and I am deeply grateful for their contributions and support.
