Meet the Owner

  • Owner of TruBlue South Wilmington, Jeff Pittman.

    Jeff Pitman

    Whether you’re fixing up your first house or looking to age in place in your forever home, finding responsive, high-quality technicians can be a challenge. I’m Jeff Pittman, the owner of TruBlue of Wilmington, and I opened this business because I saw a need for a professional company that could offer a full suite of home-care services, especially for seniors and families. At TruBlue, our technicians can help with handyman repairs, cleaning services, yard work, seasonal services and minor home renovations. We also work with homeowners, realtors and rental property owners who need to get homes move-in ready quickly and keep them maintained as well as business clients. While TruBlue can work with homeowners of all kinds, we are uniquely positioned to help seniors with our home safety assessments, ability to make age-friendly home modifications and House Care Plus program. Before opening TruBlue, I spent more than 15 years working in senior-care facilities and, a few years before opening TruBlue, I launched Carolina Mobile Transport. As part of that business, we heard a lot about the house maintenance seniors needed to be able to continue to age safely and comfortably at home. I was thinking about taking on that need by myself when I found TruBlue. Our community is having a huge building boom, especially for retirees, and TruBlue allows me to help them enjoy those homes for as long as possible. TruBlue is also unique because of our commitment to service. Every job I’ve ever had has really been about providing the very best customer experience and that’s something I’m looking forward to bringing to TruBlue. Our clients should expect to be treated with dignity and respect, which includes showing up on time, being honest and doing great work. We aren’t just another handyman service – we are a full-service home maintenance company – and we work in Wilmington, Leland, Porters Neck and the surrounding areas. We are looking forward to meeting you!

Guard Your Ground: 78% of Falls Happen In or Around Your Home

Guard Your Ground: 78% of Falls Happen In or Around Your Home

September 22, 2023
Guard Your Ground: 78% of Falls Happen In or Around Your Home The Startling Reality of Falls Have you ever glanced at a statistic and felt a sudden sense of urgency? That’s the feeling many of us get when we learn that a staggering 78% of falls occur in or around one’s home. The place that should be your sanctuary, your retreat, and your comfort zone, can unfortunately also be a setting for one of the most common risks to senior health. Why Focus on Home-Based Falls? The home is where we spend a significant amount of our time, particularly for seniors who may be retired or less mobile. Yet, many of us overlook simple measures that could make our homes much safer. This September, our campaign aims to shed light on this critical issue and provide actionable solutions. TruBlue's Commitment to Fall Prevention At TruBlue, we're not just about maintaining homes, we're about enhancing lives. We take a proactive approach to fall prevention by offering home assessments to identify potential hazards like uneven flooring, clutter, and poor lighting. Our trained TruPro Home Technicians can install safety features such as grab bars, ramps, and non-slip flooring, reducing the risks where they are most likely to happen. What Can You Do? 1. Educate Yourself and Others: Knowledge is power. Knowing the risk factors and preventive measures can go a long way in reducing the incidence of falls. 2. Opt for a Home Safety Assessment: An assessment by professionals can pinpoint the exact modifications your home may need. 3. Take Advantage of Our Special Offer: In collaboration with Close The Gap we're offering 100 FREE grab bars to those who need them. It's our way of saying we care, and it's a tangible step towards reducing those fall statistics. Don't let another moment pass in a home that could be safer. Take the initiative to protect yourself and your loved ones from the unnecessary risks that come with potential falls. Visit Close The Gap to learn more about our Fall Prevention campaign and discover how you can 'Grab the Bars' to ensure a safer, more secure environment at home. Take action now. The best defense is a strong offense, and your first offensive move starts with making your home a safer place. --- This September, let's lower that 78% statistic together. We owe it to ourselves and our loved ones to make our homes as safe as they can possibly be. *TruBlue locations are individually owned and operated. Offer valid at participating locations only.

Don't Fall Behind on Fall Prevention: The Urgency of Keeping Older Adults Safe

Don't Fall Behind on Fall Prevention: The Urgency of Keeping Older Adults Safe

September 15, 2023
Don't Fall Behind on Fall Prevention: The Urgency of Keeping Older Adults Safe Did You Know? Every 11 Seconds, An Older Adult is Admitted to the Emergency Room for a Fall This startling statistic serves as a reminder that falls are not just minor inconveniences, they can be life-altering events with severe repercussions. And this September, during Fall Prevention Month, we at TruBlue are doubling down on our commitment to protect the ones you love from this danger. The High Cost of Falls Beyond physical injury, falls carry a heavy emotional toll and often lead to reduced mobility and independence for seniors. Moreover, the financial cost can be devastating, ranging from costly hospital stays to ongoing medical care. What Can Be Done? 1. Home Assessments: An essential first step to fall prevention is conducting a comprehensive home assessment to identify potential hazards like loose rugs, poor lighting, and cluttered paths. 2. Home Modifications: With trained TruPro Home Technicians, we can adapt your home to be more fall-proof. This includes installing grab bars in bathrooms, ramps instead of stairs, and better lighting to reduce the risk of trips and falls. 3. Education: Empowering seniors and caregivers with the knowledge and tools they need to assess fall risks proactively. Understanding the risk factors and how to mitigate them is half the battle won. Introducing TruBlue's Fall Prevention Campaign In collaboration with Close The Gap In Senior Care, we have launched a unique initiative this September. Our focus will be on educating the public about fall risks and offering practical solutions for fall prevention at home. One of the most straightforward and impactful ways to prevent falls is through the installation of grab bars. These offer a secure grip in areas where falls are most likely to occur, like bathrooms. This September, we're giving away 100 FREE grab bars to those who could benefit from them. Consider it a tangible expression of our dedication to your safety and a concrete step towards diminishing the alarming rate of falls among seniors. Next Steps Take the first step in ensuring the safety and well-being of your loved ones. Partner with us in our mission to "Prevent the Fall" by nominating someone for a free grab bar. This simple action can bring peace of mind to your family and is a concrete step towards a safer, more secure future. Visit Close The Gap to learn more about our Fall Prevention campaign and to nominate someone who could benefit from a free grab bar. Together, let's join hands to mitigate risks and protect the ones we love from unnecessary harm. Don't wait for a fall to take action; the best time to act is now. --- So this September, let's stand united against falls. Let's vow to take the necessary steps to ensure our loved ones can enjoy their golden years with the dignity, independence, and safety they deserve. *TruBlue locations are individually owned and operated.
