Mission Statement 

Who We Are

We love people. 


We believe that spending quality time with those we love is one of the greatest joys on earth whether it is family gathered around the kitchen island making dinner and chatting about the day or relaxing with friends on the back deck with a drink. For over 20 years, we have made ‘home’ our passion. From helping a friend with a small bathroom remodel to building our own home, and everything in between, the long list of exceptional home renovations all had one thing in common: people. Our homes are buildings that become the backdrop for the memories shared with those we love and creating beautiful spaces to make those moments happen is our passion. 


In 2022, we were presented with an opportunity to fulfill a lifelong dream of owning a family business through the purchase of St. Louis Screens. St. Louis Screens has a long history of being a reputable family business adding beauty and value to homes for over 15 years and, as it turns out, this would not only fulfill our dream of owning a family business, but would also merge our love for family, and our passion for cultivating beauty in the places and spaces where memories are made.

Our Story

The early part of our married life found me working part-time in accounting and compliance roles. Jim, after completing degrees in both teaching and accounting, spent his days teaching eighth grade math and coaching high school baseball and softball. His summers were spent helping renovate homes for friends and family.


In 2005 while I was pregnant with our third child, Jim took on his biggest project to date: building our family home. In 2007, we had our fourth child, and it was during that season that I was presented with a significant promotion opportunity at work. That was when we made the unconventional move for me to go full-time and Jim to stay home with our four young children.


Over the next 15 years, Jim stayed very busy not only managing our household but also picking up renovation work, purchasing rental homes, flipping properties, substitute teaching, and filling the screen repair role for a friend’s local hardware store. While his word-of-mouth renovation projects kept him plenty busy, we always dreamed of a bigger business. St. Louis Screens became available and not only fit right into Jim’s wheelhouse but also offered us the opportunity to specialize in one area as well as to one day hire and train expert teams as we expand. 


While the kids are older now and pursuing their interests, our business efforts have always been family-focused. We have always considered our family a team that works hard and plays hard. Our kids have been an active part of flipping houses, updating rental properties, and maintaining our own homes for many years. Our mission statement was created one night around the dinner table. It reflects our commitment to hard work, quality results, and treating people like our family.
