Larry Janesky is a successful business owner, author, speaker, and inventor with 29 patents. With more than 30 years of business experience, he has gone from being a self-employed home services contractor to an authority on creating and growing businesses.

It all started in 1987 with the founding of Connecticut Basement Systems, Inc. out of Larry’s first home in Devon, CT.

Larry is now at the hub of an award-winning and successful enterprise as the founder of Basement Systems Inc., Connecticut Basement Systems, CleanSpace, and Total Basement Finishing, and co-founder of Supportworks and Dr. Energy Saver.

This exclusive network connects 400 dealers in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Ireland.

Through business education and development, Larry wants to improve the lives of business owners, employees, customers, and, ultimately, the world!
