From Trades to Trust: Tim Lee on Networking and Building Integrity Construction
In this episode of Connections That Matter, Andrew sits down with Timothy Lee, owner of Integrity Construction, to talk about what networking looks like for trades professionals—and why “giving” is often the fastest path to building trust, partnerships, and long-term opportunity. Tim shares the unexpected origin story of his business, including a real-world connection made in a NAPA parking lot that helped shape his approach to building relationships.
They also dig into what “integrity” means when you’re working inside someone’s home, how customer experience can make or break a construction business, and why systems are the difference between being busy and building something sustainable.
Why You Should Listen
If you’re a business owner who wants better referrals but feels stretched thin, this episode will help you rethink networking in a way that’s practical, relationship-driven, and realistic. You’ll hear how a contractor evaluates networking ROI, how “small” connections can become major opportunities, and what it takes to build a company that can grow without burning you out.
