Doug Iedema’s journey into the home services industry is rooted in his rich family history and diverse background. A third-generation Dutch immigrant, Doug grew up with a strong work ethic, learning from his grandfather who moved to Iowa to farm corn and soybeans. "I spent many summers growing up doing farm labor, which definitely gave me an appreciation for what business owners – especially farmers – go through to make a living," Doug shares. His family's constant relocations due to his father’s career in commercial construction gave Doug a unique perspective on the importance of adaptability and hard work, traits that have shaped his business approach today.

After settling in Texas in his early 20s, Doug met his wife, Lauree, a proud Texas native. The couple raised two wonderful teenage daughters, embracing Texas life to its fullest. "Since we've been together, I bought a Stetson, multiple pairs of cowboy boots, a couple large belt buckles, and I drive a pick-up truck – so Lauree says I can consider myself a Texan now!" Doug laughs. His deep roots in the community and dedication to hard work have been the driving forces behind his successful business, Garage Kings.

Garage Kings specializes in concrete coatings, offering top-notch services for customers looking to transform their garages and patios. "Our business is a bit seasonal because we're in the home services industry, and most folks don't want much going on in their homes during the holidays – and I don't blame them! The holiday season is a time for family and friends," Doug notes. To overcome slower months, Doug and his team have gotten creative with marketing, promotions, and offering additional services during the offseason.

One of the most important aspects of Garage Kings’ success is their commitment to quality and preparation. "When looking for a concrete coating company, make sure you know what their installation process is. Preparation of the concrete is critical to the success and longevity of the coating," Doug advises. He explains that improper preparation, such as acid-etching or using a floor polisher, can result in floor failure. In fact, 60% of their business comes from fixing floors that have failed due to poor preparation.

Customers are quick to sing the praises of Doug and his team. Jean K. shares, "This is our second job with Doug, Alex, and the crew at Garage Kings. It is a pleasure to work with such experienced contractors that are true professionals and subject matter experts in their field. If you are looking for 'Value Add' improvements to your property, do yourself a favor and call the crew we trust! You won’t be sorry."

Ryan H. adds, "Very pleased and happy with the end product that Doug and Garage Teams did. Would recommend them for sure and fair on price for what you’re getting." Meanwhile, Janet D. raves, "From quote to install, our experience was amazing. Doug quoted a price, and at the end of the jobs, that was the price – no hidden surprises. They did two garages and a patio floor for us, and WOW! One of the garages was a custom color, and it turned out great. I would highly recommend using Doug and his crew!"

Looking ahead, Doug and Garage Kings are committed to continuing their work at home shows, such as the Frisco Home & Garden Show in March, and attending car events like Rides-n-Pies at Halo Pizzeria and Cars & Coffee in Frisco. "We love getting involved in the community and showing off what we can do!" Doug says with enthusiasm.

Mark C. recounts his experience, "I have an oversized 3-car garage plus a storage room that I wanted to have a floor coating put on. I received quotes from multiple companies and decided on Garage Kings. They were offering to do the little things that the others were not, PLUS they offered a service to empty out my garage and put things back. Doug Iedema was very good to work with, and the installation crew was professional and answered every question my wife and I had. I would highly recommend Garage Kings."

With a focus on customer satisfaction, quality service, and community involvement, Doug Iedema and Garage Kings continue to grow and make a lasting impact in the home services industry.
