American Builders is the podcast where the backbone of the country—the contractors, tradesmen, and builders who actually make things—tell their stories.


Presented by TradeGuard, the AI-powered insurance agency built for the trades, the show goes deep with founders who are building America one project at a time. Each episode breaks down how real operators think: the grind of winning bids, managing crews, navigating risk, scaling a business, and everything in between. No fluff. No corporate jargon. Just the truth about what it takes to build something that lasts.


Whether you run a $2M shop or a $200M operation, this is where you’ll learn from the people who’ve already walked the path—what worked, what didn’t, and what the next generation of builders needs to know.


American Builders is for the entrepreneurs keeping America running. And we’re here to tell their stories.

  • American Builders Ep 26 - Brent Garrett (Sirius Plumbing) | From $1M Debt to a Better Business
    Oct 1 2026

    Brent Garrett (Sirius Plumbing & Air Conditioning, The Skilled Trades Coach, author of 30 Days to a Better Business) joins Garrett Amundsen on American Builders, presented by TradeGuard.

    Brent is a second-generation plumber who built, sold, nearly lost everything, and rebuilt - then turned those lessons into a coaching practice for skilled trades owners. We dig into:

    • The $1M wake-up call - the day the lights went out
    • Why you can delegate tasks but never final accountability for the money
    • Needs-based selling - we love to buy, we hate to be sold
    • Stop closing like a bad doctor (diagnose first, then recommend)
    • Knowing why you're selling before you sell the business
    • Escaping the whirlpool - working twice as hard for half the profit
