Extreme Home Makeover Build’s North Escambia Foundation
October 21, 2010
The Extreme Home Makeover house under construction this week in Pensacola sits upon a uniquely North Escambia foundation.
The red dirt used for foundation was donated by Campbell’s Sand & Gravel in Century and owned by James Campbell. Four dump trucks and seven 18-wheelers each dumped two loads of dirt at the construction site on Rainbow Avenue.
American Concrete, located in Molino, donated the concrete for the foundation of the home, and lumber for the house was donated by Cantonment Building Materials. Both companies are owned by Billy Campbell.
Construction on the 3,500 square foot house started Monday and will be complete by this Sunday for Finis Gaston of Baker. The Pensacola episode of Extreme Home Makeover is scheduled to air December 12.

Pensacola Ready Mix USA also needs to receive accolades, as they donated half of the concrete for the home’s foundation, in a joint effort with American Concrete.
Yes the Campbell’s are very good people…you dont find to many bussiness owner’s that care like they about their community like the Campbells do and they are very good Chirstian people too…..It make’s me proud to know such good people like Billy Campbell and his family….God Bless Yall…. :}
welfare makes people lazy and gives them a sense of entitlement! there is no entitlement, you either earn something or you do not. this is why this country has multi generational welfare families. they are raised in the system and see how it works and what you need to do to work it. this is just another example of working the system……..
Way to go.
way to go guys i think it’s great that , in this day and age people still do stuff out of the kindness of there hearts
Mobile Lumber in Pensacola also donated Lumber for the project so we have to thank them as well
Another reason to use the north end retailers when possible.
Mr. Campbell is one fine person!!
