President
Don has been in the construction industry for 42 years. In 1976, he started as a brick & stone mason while attending St Louis Community College and the University of Missouri at St. Louis. He studied architecture, business, and construction-related coursework. Within a few years, Don became a foreman for the masonry company he worked for. Wanting to learn more about the industry, Don took work with a custom home builder in 1984, building executive and estate homes. He learned much from this experience about quality, detail, best building practices, and workflows.
In 1986, the homebuilder he was working for retired, and Don started Stockell General Contracting Inc. One of his first contracts was remodeling the Algonquin Golf Club in Glendale, MO. Don became known for his attention to detail and superb craftsmanship that he had acquired through his masonry and custom homebuilding experience. His business flourished as a result of many successful projects for the clientele and businesses associated with the Golf Club.
