Paul & Rhine Hines
I am originally from Puerto Rico. I graduated from a university as an aerospace engineer. After that, I worked for several big companies as a mechanical engineer, including working for Crystler at their proving grounds in Michigan. I didn’t love that weather, so we moved down to Texas, where I started working for Cooper Tires as a testing engineer.
When that company was bought out, I decided to start looking for other opportunities. I always wanted to live in Florida. We have two kids, so being closer to Puerto Rico and my family was very important. I’ve been a forensic engineer in Florida for about two years. I love it as a job, but it isn’t my passion. I’ve always had a desire to own my own business. I want to have the power and the ability to control my future and my family’s future — moving forward the way we want to move forward.
I also wanted to work alongside my wife Rhine Batiancila. She is the mother of our two-year-old son and our eight-year-old daughter. She studied hotel management and restaurant management, working for seven seasons at Gran Hotel on Mackinac Island, Michigan. She also worked for seven seasons at a resort in Vero Beach, Florida.
Everyone understands the challenges of taking care of the elderly in their family. Once you reach a certain age in your life, you look around and realize that your parents or elderly family members may have health issues or need assistance.

“ My experience with TruBlue East Manatee was phenomenal. Paul contacted me quickly and came out to give me an estimate. Within one day of accepting the quote, I was scheduled to have my project done. Peter redid some pavers for me and made a custom frame around the base of my above ground pond. He was conscientious, meticulous and made suggestions to improve my existing pond. His work was excellent. I give him enough praise. I would highly recommend TruBlue of East Manatee. ”

“ TrueBlue serving East Manatee county is the absolute best company I have ever used. I called them to give me a price to put together and install my IKEA kitchen cabinets. They showed up on time and stayed until the project was complete. Peter is a true craftsman and did an unbelievable job installing the cabinets. They look beautiful. Their prices are very fair and the quality of their work is outstanding!!!! If you are tired of dealing with companies who don’t do what they say, leave you hanging and are messy……Give Paul a call. He is very knowledgeable and is so honest.
A breath of fresh air!!!! ”

“ Paul and Rhine are 2 of nicest people anyone can meet. That's first and foremost!! I could not be happier with their work and left the job as clean as they started. Knowing the shower door was for mother in law's bathroom who's nearly 90 years old, they took the extra time and used the proper anchors to make sure it was very secure. Didn't ask them to do, just did it on their own. That meant a lot to me. I'm so glad they do other things because i'll be calling them back 100%. Very professional and super super nice!! Reasonable on top of the great work! Thank you Paul and Rhine!! ”

“ Really incredible experience.
My mom lives alone and is old enough to be having trouble when something isn’t exactly as she’s used to. So when her remote stopped working and we weren’t able to help her fix it by FaceTime, we took a shot and came to thumbtack. We lucked out finding TruBlue who were friendly, responsive and expressed their understanding and support of trying to allow our mom to age in place, happily and comfortably. They were able to come out almost immediately, and my mom was raving about how kind and patient Paul was. He solved her problem then ensured she could do it herself if it ever arises again.
TruBlue and Paul are remarkable and we can’t thank them or recommend them more highly. ”

“ Wow. Is all I can say. I expected this things to look better when Trublue came out but I didn’t expect it to look like new!! I set everything up with Paul. Raul and Enrique came out and transformed the two places I needed updated and refreshed, to look absolutely amazing. Cleaned up the everything like they weren’t even there. Amazing job and I 100% recommend if you’re looking for the best ever customer service and outstanding workmanship! Again. Wow! Thank you
