Destruction

On September 13, 2008, Hurricane Ike changed the lives of many in southeast Texas. Ike came through and wiped out homes and destroyed possessions. When Hurricane Ike hit Texas, Innovative Air Solutions founder Robert Currie found himself in a situation that many have encountered before. After the hurricane left nothing but rubble and devastation in its wake, he was faced with rebuilding his family’s home from scratch on top of re-building their business.

Damages

When Hurricane Ike hit, Robert, his wife, and their three school-aged children lost everything. When salt water seven-feet high poured into their home, all their possessions were completely destroyed.

Three days before the storm hit, they purchased a new living room suite and had it delivered, even though they initially questioned if they should wait till after the then-Gulf-only storm was over. Since the storm was rated a Category 2 at that time, they went ahead with their plans.

After the storm, the Curries waded down their street, knocking open the front door only to find their new furniture upside down along with their kitchen refrigerator. With nothing else but the clothes on their back, they moved into a friend’s upstairs for two months while they waited for a Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) trailer. Once the trailer arrived, they moved into a three-bedroom single wide trailer—Robert, his wife, their three children, and two dogs. To make their adventure more exciting, their female dog gave birth to a litter of puppies in the trailer!

Desperation

During the same time, Robert and his friend, Larry Locke, built a spec house. They listed the house with a realtor, and it was for sale less than 90 days when it was flooded and damaged as well. The Curries suffered another tens of thousands of dollars in damages with this loss.

Opportunity

Robert’s philosophy is: When catastrophe hits, you can tuck your tail and run away, or you can look for the opportunities. And out of utter destruction an opportunity did appear. Robert starting receiving calls upon calls from friends and friends of friends needing his help with estimates. So he took a leap, quit his lucrative job with plenty of security, and started his own business.
