In Dec 1977 James D Jacob (Jake) and eldest son James Jr. (Bud) founded the Jacob Co. At that time Jake was the Vice-President with Central Hardware Corporation working out of their national headquarters in Bridgeton, Mo. His duties included overseeing the installed products division for all the stores throughout the Midwest. He saw firsthand the 2 most common traits contractors possess. They over promise and under deliver. Jake approached Bud in the fall of '77 and said "if we run a home improvement company on 2 simple principles we can be very successful. First, really "care" for our customers and listen to their wishes so we can deliver what they want and not what we think they want. Second, simply do what we say we are going to do.
Jacob is still family owned and operated. Scott Jacob President and Bud Jacob Vice President are the present day partners. Bud and Scott work together with a great staff to keep JACOB at the top of the remodeling industry.
