‘Resource360’ Opens on Main Street

A one-stop shop for home improvement has opened in the heart of downtown New Canaan. Located at 99 Main St., Resource360 is the brainchild of town resident Todd Sell, a veteran property renovator who launched the business to assist homeowners with both kitchen and bath retail needs as well as services such as property management and interior design, and professional referrals for suppliers and trades such as painters, electricians and plumbers. “People are starting to come in,” Sell said Thursday from the front retail area at Resource360, featuring concrete countertops and custom cabinetry. “The people that come in really like our mix of products and they’re asking a lot of questions. It’s been a good start.”

Those patronizing the business are often preparing to do home renovations or “beginning the process of looking at countertops and cabinetry and lights and mirrors,” among other building materials, he said.

‘A One-Stop Shop’: ‘Resource360’ To Open on Main Street

Todd Sell developed the idea for Resource360 soon after he started renovating properties, about eight years ago. The New Canaan resident found himself bringing together a number of carefully vetted professional resources for the work and thought, “It would be really valuable for a lot of people to have a place where you can tap somebody that actually has done it before, and then also has all the resources to help you do it,” he said. “And it’s just a place where you can come and ask questions,” Sell told NewCanaanite.com on Wednesday afternoon from inside 99 Main St., whose most recent long-term tenant was Family Britches. Soon, the vacant commercial space will feature a retail area near the front for both kitchen and bath, with large sections for cabinetry and vanities, as well as a number of services, such as property management and interior design, and professional referrals for suppliers and trades such as painters, electricians and plumbers. “My vision for this place is to be a one-stop shop for whenever you need something for your house,” Sell said.
