Company History

The business began in October 1993 under the name Roscommens Contracting. Owner Jim Van Tassel built the company from small remodeling and furniture projects into a steady local firm. Over the years the business did home maintenance, custom furniture, and a period of home inspection work under CREIA standards.

In May 2011 the name changed to A Better Bath and Kitchen with a clear shift toward bathroom and kitchen remodeling. The showroom was added to help customers make selections and to keep projects moving smoothly. The firm still handles home repairs and smaller handyman jobs alongside larger remodels.

Leadership

Owner and founder Jim Van Tassel has decades of hands-on experience. He has worked as a CREIA home inspector, built custom furniture, and led many remodeling jobs. Jim lives and works in the Sacramento region and keeps long-standing ties with local suppliers and tradespeople.
