Gotcha Covered announces new president
Experienced home improvement and franchise industry executive David Dunsmuir has been named president of Gotcha Covered, a company offering custom window treatment across the U.S. and Canada and part of the Five Star Franchising platform of home service brands.
"Gotcha Covered and Five Star Franchising stand out for their amazing growth and the high quality of service and solutions they offer customers and franchise owners," Dunsmuir said. "I have spent my entire career in the home improvement industry, from pushing carts in the parking lot as a teenager to leading the nation's largest bathroom remodeler to significant sales growth following COVID-19. I'm proud to join Gotcha Covered and will be committed to elevating the brand's excellence and building a team culture based on transparent communication and trust."
Dunsmuir succeeds Paul Linenberg as president of Gotcha Covered. He brings more than 20 years of experience to the position, including roles in sales, operations and leadership at Home Depot, Cabinets to Go and Re-Bath.
"Stepping down after 16 years has elicited a host of mixed emotions for me, chief among them a desire to make sure that the incredible staff and franchise owners within the Gotcha Covered family will be taken care of after my departure," said Paul Linenberg, Dunsmuir's predecessor as Gotcha Covered president. "I could not be more pleased to know that David will take the reins and lead Gotcha Covered into a bright future. His impressive skill set, combined with his focus on the people aspect of business, give me the ultimate peace of mind to allow me to step away knowing that Gotcha Covered is in the right hands. I look forward to watching the continued success of Gotcha Covered from afar over the years to come."
