RAF Construction - The Executive Turned In His Suit And Tie For Work Boots Flanagan Didn't Like 'Executive Rat Race'

He runs the business with his wife, Lona, a former model from Denmark. Their RAF Construction, is based out of their home in Ex­ eter, and a workshop on wheels - a large, white van which takes him to all his contract jobs. While Lona Flanagan han­ dles the bookkeeping and the scheduling of appointments, her husbarid does all home im­ provements including in­ stalling kitchens, baths, decks, as well as performing custom carpentry work. She says she even has to schedule him to work on their home because he's so busy. The self-taught owner grew up in Coventry and is a self­ styled perfectionist.
