About Us

A letter from the founder, Matt Merrifield:

In the past 20 years we have made great strides to make Lakeside stand out from the rest. We accomplish this by:

• Creating an atmosphere of opportunity for our employee’s. We have instilled a culture here where character, work ethic, and results create that opportunity. Through hard work, continued growth and a constant need to improve, we feel Lakeside is a better company today than it has ever been.
• Making sure our customer come first. Through our wonderful employee’s, we emphasize customer satisfaction. It is what keeps us employed with a growth mentality because we know that without the Customer, we do not exist.
• Being a Family. My brother is Co-Owner of Lakeside, my Daughter is our Marketing Manager, but on top of that, our employees have helped develop a family atmosphere here at Lakeside.

I am a firm believer in doing what is right and making sure our customers are always happy. If you’d like someone you can trust to help you with your home improvement project, please give us a call.

Thank you for your interest in Lakeside Renovation & Design!

Sincerely,
Matt Merrifield

What Makes Lakeside the St. Louis Home Improvement Leaders?

Lakeside Renovation & Design’s focus remains making the home remodeling process convenient and enjoyable for every customer. Improving your home with new siding, windows, doors or decks is an exciting time that should be viewed with anticipation, not dread. We are committed to making the process as easy and stress-free as possible through open and honest communications and an up-front commitment to pricing and scheduling to help avoid surprises.

We are also committed to installing only quality products and materials in your home. That’s why we work with top manufacturers like James Hardie Siding, Infinity from Marvin Windows, Provia Doors and Barrette Outdoor Living decks. This helps ensure that your siding, windows, doors and decks will deliver many years of enjoyment and performance.

Energy Efficiency is a Priority

Over the years we developed a growing awareness of the need to help reduce energy costs by making homes as energy-efficient as possible, and took definite steps to achieve that goal. Our James Hardie Siding, Infinity from Marvin Windows and Provia Doors are all rated at the highest levels of thermal efficiency, providing an effective barrier to keep your home and family warmer in the winter and cooler all summer.

Our People Put Our Customers First

None of this would be possible without a team of highly skilled and fully trained craftsmen who know that serving our customers comes first. Each member of the Lakeside Renovation & Design team is a local resident. We know that we are working on the homes of our neighbors and friends, and will be around for many years to come to witness the results of our work. That’s why we put a little extra effort into every project, so we can look with pride on homes that we have helped make more beautiful, comfortable and valuable.

Our Customers Love Us

Our focus on putting the customer first is not just talk. We have hundreds of testimonials and references that support our commitment to our customer satisfaction. You can read what our customers have to say about Lakeside Renovation & Design in the Testimonials page.

Networked for Success

We are certified by the manufacturers we represent so that we may offer the full extent of their materials and product warranties. In fact, we are one of only six contractors nationwide to earn the coveted James Hardie Elite Preferred Remodeler status, a prestigious honor that means your St. Louis siding installation is being performed by one of the top siding contractors in the nation!

We Are Insured for Your Protection

Lakeside Renovation & Design is covered by a general liability insurance policy of up to $2 million, as well as full workers’ compensation insurance. We go to this trouble and expense to protect our customers.

If you hire an uninsured or under-insured contractor to work on your home and an accident occurs on your property, you may be held liable for damages. In some cases a homeowners insurance policy will cover some of the costs. But other expenses may become your responsibility.

Insist on seeing written and official proof of insurance – both liability coverage and workers’ compensation coverage – before hiring any contractor. A legitimate contractor will be able to produce a valid certificate of coverage.
