In a field where staff retention and workplace culture can determine long-term stability, The Brothers That Just Do Gutters has earned the Great Place to Work Certification for the fourth consecutive year. The recognition underscores a workplace where 92 percent of employees describe it as a great place to work, a result well above national averages.
Danny Horboychuk, the brand’s president, attributed the achievement to the company’s people-first philosophy. “Our employees are at the heart of everything we do,” he said. “Their feedback confirms that the culture we are building is working, and it motivates us to continue investing in them.”
The company has made training and professional development a cornerstone of its operations. Employees are offered opportunities to expand their skills and take on new responsibilities, which, in turn, has fostered loyalty and a stronger sense of ownership within the organization.
Open communication is another feature that sets the workplace apart. Leaders emphasize transparency, celebrate milestones large and small, and invite employees to contribute ideas for innovation. This approach has built a sense of shared purpose, one that employees say makes their workday both productive and rewarding.
The broader research by Great Place to Work provides context for the certification’s significance. Certified companies are 4.5 times more likely to have strong managers, and 93 percent of employees at those companies report that they look forward to coming to work. These figures illustrate the value of investing in workplace culture not only for employees but also for the overall success of the business.
For the Brothers franchise, the repeated recognition is more than symbolic. In an industry that relies on customer trust and consistent service, the ability to attract and retain skilled employees is a competitive advantage. The certification signals to prospective workers, customers, and franchisees that the company prioritizes its people as much as its product.
The Brothers That Just Do Gutters continues to expand its footprint in the home services sector, but its leadership maintains that growth is sustainable only if employees feel supported. With another year of recognition, the company is positioning itself as an employer of choice, offering a workplace model that others in the industry may look to emulate.
