Mike Depasquale & Mary Meadows, Owners
Mike and Mary started their first business, Primary Home Improvements in 2021. Driven by the desire to provide reliable home improvement services in their community, the Cleveland natives and high school sweethearts decided to expand their services. The husband and wife duo partnered with Larry Janesky to open Cleveland Basement Systems and provide the Greater Cleveland area with dependable waterproofing and structural repair solutions.
Mike has worked in the home improvement industry since the age of 18. He has held various roles, including installer, sales rep, sales manager, general manager, and now co-owner of Primary Home Improvements and Cleveland Basement Systems. His current role overseeing production and sales is a great fit for his vast work experience, mechanical abilities, and construction knowledge.
Mary went back to school to finish her Bachelor's degree in her late twenties and discovered that after working in the business world for over 10 years, she really cared about topics like what makes an effective leader/business owner and how to build a positive company culture. She took that passion and continued her education, graduating with her MBA from Berea's Baldwin Wallace University in 2021.
In her role as co-owner, Mary oversees all the background "business stuff" that goes into running an organization. She enjoys analyzing data while Mike prefers to get out on site with the installers and sales team. Their respective skill sets allow for a balanced approach that has led to growth and success in their business endeavors.
Mike and Mary live in North Ridgeville with their daughter and what they lovingly refer to as the "dog farm." After 18 years of knowing each other and different life journeys, they finally tied the knot in 2023.
