About Trey Willbanks

With an enthusiasm for excellent customer service and enriching client connections, I launched Willbanks Contractor Support in 2013. This venture crafts a support solution exclusively for our existing clientele, offering services from “Planning to Performance.” Now, as President & CEO of Willbanks, Inc., I’m on a mission to incorporate cutting-edge strategies, technology, and efficiency into our business model.

One major stride we’ve made is with TEAL’s AI-powered central plants, which outperform traditional ones, significantly reducing carbon footprints. My forward-thinking attitude and passion for improvement haven’t been overlooked, earning me a spot as a finalist for the 2016 Houston Business Journal’s Best CEO and Willbanks numerous accolades like the 2022 “Great Place To Work” Certification.

Beyond work, I am deeply involved in the community, being part of multiple associations and supporting local causes. I also relish time with my family, exploring new eateries, traveling, and outdoor activities. I’m thrilled to face every day as an opportunity to foster our growth and WIN at customer service, embodying my entrepreneurial spirit.
