Founded by Kelly’s father, Edward Kelly, and the senior Kelly’s partner Malcolm Lunt, Pete Kelly first stuck his toes into the business while a student at the University of New Hampshire. “My father asked me if I’d help out a bit, so I did,” he states simply. Kelly ultimately earned a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration and went on to explore various careers.

“But when Malcolm Lunt retired, my father asked me if I’d help him out in the store full time.” Kelly pauses, reflecting on his pivotal decision, which came with a condition. “I told my dad, ‘Okay, but I can only give you a couple of years.’” He laughs at his naivety and at his imposed timeline. “But of course,” Kelly says, “the business grew on me. I liked the idea of being my own boss, and I liked the idea of being here for my community. is history.”

Pete Kelly’s delight with the way history has turned out is etched on his face, evident by the wide smile he is unable to suppress as he tells his story of ending up at the helm of the family business. He beams and his eyes sparkle when he shares that his two daughters, Lisa, who manages the hardware store and Kate, who operates the rental shop, have joined him. “They were inspired by their dad’s entrepreneurial spirit,” he jokes, self-deprecatingly. The ability to perpetuate the family business is very rewarding,” says Kelly.

How Your Kelly's Rental Can Help With In Home Projects

Whether you are new to home improvement or an old pro, there’s one thing that they both have in common: you need to have the right tools for the job. Since the pros use them on a regular basis, it makes sense for them to own their tools. For the homeowner, however, renting may be the better option, since some tools are so expensive or rarely used. According to Good Housekeeping, studies have shown that the average power tool is used for only about half an hour in its lifetime. Had those tools merely been rented for a of couple hours, the homeowners would have saved a lot of money and space.

Depending on the size of your job, tools can be rented for a period of time that fits your needs. This article has a list of common tools and equipment which you can rent at Kelly's to make your project go smoother.

Happy Mother's Day from all of us at Kelly's Taylor Rental!

Happy National Cotton Candy Day! December 7th Did you know that cotton candy was invented by a dentist! It was! Dentist William Morrison made the first cotton candy in 1897 with the help of a candy maker named John C. Warton. Actually, cotton candy contains less sugar than other carnival treats like candy apples and fried dough. We don't need a special day to celebrate - you can always find cotton candy machine rentals right here at Kelly's Rental! #carnivalgames #rentalgames #cottoncandymachines #popcornmachines #partyrental #nbpt #newburyportma
