Stephanie Vanderbilt Named SBA Business Person Of The Year As Coastal Windows & Exteriors Celebrates 15 Years And National #1 Ranking

(MENAFN- PR Newswire) Founder Stephanie Vanderbilt launched Coastal in 2010 after a career teaching the deaf, bringing her passion for education into the remodeling space. "Our success started in a classroom," says Vanderbilt. "That mindset of putting education first is still the foundation of everything we do. We lead with empathy and transparency to help homeowners make confident decisions."

Over the past 15 years, Coastal has installed thousands of energy-efficient windows , doors, roofing, and siding systems across Massachusetts , New Hampshire, and Maine. These accolades reflect a long-standing commitment to exceptional workmanship, customer satisfaction, and team excellence.

"Coastal has demonstrated impressive job creation and community impact through programs like Roofs for Heroes." said SBA District Director Robert Nelson .

"Stephanie is the finest example of a small business in today's business world," added Michael Bevilacqua , VP of the Merrimack Valley Chamber of Commerce. "Her dedication to her customers and community - especially veterans - is especially noteworthy."

But for Vanderbilt, recognition is only part of the story. "Our mission is to serve," says Vanderbilt. "We just happen to install siding, roofing, windows, and doors." That service-first mission extends to the broader community through programs like Roofs for Heroes , which provides free roof replacements to local veterans, and Coastal has also donated over $375,000 in products and services to Habitat for Humanity .

With a 4.8-star Google rating and 7,000+ homes transformed, Coastal continues to build more than just beautiful exteriors. "When you lead with passion and empathy," Vanderbilt adds, "you create real impact, break barriers, and shape a legacy."
