Integrative Restoration

Rapid Waters Development began working with Integrative Restoration through the work that we have done with Jeremy Caldwell - Eternalistic Design (@eternalistic) on the new DrupalMAO design. This was another project where we were to come in and fix a few issues and then be done. Because of our Rapid turnaround time and quality work we have been steadily involved with maintenance and improving features.
