About Us
King Preservation LLC is owned and operated by Nick Proetz and his wife Maegan. Nick is a carpenter by trade, with over 20 years of experience in residential & commercial construction, including both interior & exterior work in a variety of areas, such as decks, fences, windows, doors, siding, roofing & gutters.
Nick was born & raised in St. Louis, where he got his start in the construction industry, learning from a young age. While in St. Louis, he co-owned a siding company, as well as a rehab company, where they completely transformed abandoned homes into 3-4 family flats, completing work for the national company We Buy Ugly Houses. Having a crew of 40 employees, he also secured contracts with large property management companies, renovating apartment complexes.
In 2010, Nick moved his wife & kids to Colorado Springs, CO, where his father had relocated. He & Maegan opened up a residential exteriors company called MECO, focusing primarily on decks, fences & windows.
After 8 years in Colorado, Nick grew very homesick for the natural beauty of Missouri, and decided to move his family back to the Show Me State, settling in Springfield in 2018. Since moving to The Queen City, Nick has networked with some amazing people and has been able to leave his mark in the community, working on some larger commercial projects, such as local fire stations, gas stations & car dealerships.
In January 2019, he & Maegan opened King Preservation, realizing there is a market here in need of honest, hardworking contractors who put quality as their number one priority. He also discovered that homeowners seem to have trouble finding a good contractor who will complete the 'small jobs' at a reasonable price, so he has decided to fill that niche, with a 'No job too small' attitude.
Joining forces with The Deck Company as a builder, becoming a member of the 417 Professionals Business Networking group, and through customer referrals, Nick & Maegan have been able to successfully grow their company, helping home owners & small businesses with an array of construction & repair needs.
At King Preservation, we are dedicated to providing high-quality work at a fair price, and we never sub-out our jobs. Nick will discuss your project with you, and personally build your vision into reality. Call us today to schedule your estimate!
