About Us

Your Repair Professional

I was born in Junction City in 1953 and I am 1971 graduate of Junction City High School. While attending Kansas State University majoring in marketing, I was working part time for a Falley’s grocery store. The owners were big believers in decentralized management and I quickly realized that I could make a good salary and bonus by managing one of their stores so I quit college my junior year and started working at Falley’s. I continued working in the grocery business for the same company and, in 1979, became store manager of a Food4Less in St. Joseph, Mo. In 1986, the chain was sold and I “retired” from the grocery business. I skipped from job to job for several years until 1991 when I went to work at Ft. Riley for a painting contractor. I loved it! In 1992, I began painting on my own. From this humble beginning, I have been blessed, due to great employees and dependable subcontractors and suppliers, expand my business to cover the many facets of home improvement. Currently, my team includes 10 employees which consist of 4 carpenters, 3 painters, 1 office person, a flooring guy and myself. We do more than paint – kitchen and bath remodeling, window replacement, door replacement, basement finishes, carpentry repairs I also have trusted sub-contractors in my electrician, my plumbing, heating and air man as well as great suppliers for kitchen cabinets, solid surface countertops, 3 lumber yards in 3 cities and if need be, we can use Menards and Home Depot in nearby Manhattan. I have been in management for over 40 years. Treating others as you wish to be treated has taken me a long way. My team enjoys doing what we say we will do for the price we say we will do it for.
