Who We Are

Jake Schabel

Owner

Hey! My name is Jake Schabel and I am thankful to be the husband of an amazing wife and the father of four amazing kids. We chose to start Schabel Exteriors out of the deep conviction that this was the next season of life that God had for us. We believe our mission is simple; Love God and Love People. That is the foundation for our company motto, “Taking Care Of People.” One of the many ways that we get to achieve that is by giving people the best experience they have ever had in their home exterior endeavors. We are committed to making sure that every person feels seen, heard, and cared for. If we didn’t achieve that, we fell short of our mission. To all our customers; thank you for trusting us as it’s been an honor and a privilege to serve you at Schabel Exteriors. To our future customers; we are excited to meet you and take care of you. The best is yet to come!

Mason Vechart

Vice President

 

Hello there! I’m Mason, and if there’s one thing I’m absolutely passionate about, it’s living life to the fullest alongside my incredible family. With my loving wife, two amazing kids, and a shared love for Christ, music and the great outdoors, every day feels like a new adventure waiting to unfold.

When I’m not busy being a husband and a dad, you can usually find me out in nature. Whether it’s hunting, fishing, or exploring new disc golf courses, I am constantly astounded by God and his meticulous creation all around us.

Upon joining Schabel Exteriors, I was ecstatic about the strong company culture centered around taking care of people. I believe my calling from the Lord is to give people an unforgettable experience and showing God’s love through every interaction I have with my clients. I’m committed to going above and beyond to ensure your complete satisfaction. From conducting thorough inspections to providing transparent pricing and personalized recommendations, I will prioritize your needs every step of the way.

My dedication to excellence doesn’t stop at the sale. I will be with you throughout the duration of your project, from initial consultation to final inspection, with a focus on clear communication, attention to detail, and a genuine desire to exceed your expectations. I am excited to continue growing with Schabel Exteriors as we strive for excellence, serve our Lord, and “Take Care of People”.

Zach Miller

Project Manager

 

Hey, my name is Zach Miller and I’m one of the Project Managers at Schabel Exteriors. It did not take long for me to get excited about what’s going on at Schabel Exteriors after spending some time with Jake and Mason out in the field and watching how they genuinely take care of not just the homeowners, but our crews, our suppliers, and everyone they come into contact with. My goal is to align with that attitude, and ultimately be an ambassador for Christ in my work life. When Im not busy helping people protect and spruce up their homes, I enjoy spending time with my family, playing music, and working on my house. I look forward to working with you!

Maria Merlin

Lead Generation

 

Hello! My name is Maria. My husband and I work on Lead Generation at Schabel Exteriors. I’ve known and volunteered with Jake for years. When Jake told me about Schabel Exteriors, I was super excited because I know his heart aligns with my core beliefs; Love God, Love People.

My loving husband and I have three rambunctious kids that keep both of us laughing and on our toes.  When I’m not keeping up with mom duties or work, you can usually find me making lattes, practicing martial arts, hunting, and spending time with family and friends.

I love meeting new people, and I look forward to getting to know each person as we welcome them into the Schabel construction family.

Jesse Merlin

Lead Generation

 

Hi, my name is Jesse! Jake has really built a culture around loving life, loving God, and loving people, and I am honored to be a part of it. I am eternally grateful for the support of my wife, and the joy I get from coming home to my 3 kids. Ever since I was a child, I have always enjoyed music and the outdoors. My favorite time of the year is the fall, mostly for the hunting experiences. You’ll also often find me sharing my musical talents, either at church or at other venues.

Schabel Exteriors has a deep culture and commitment to “taking care of people” every step of the way, and I am looking forward to helping facilitate that experience. I have over 10 years of experience in construction trades, so I have a good understanding of how the industry as a whole works. My wife and I look forward to meeting new faces and changing your home construction experience for the better!

When you work with us, you become part of our extended family, and we look forward to bringing that experience to every home we can.
