My name is Justin Schmidt and I started Schmidt Services in 2006 while working at the Kenton County jail full-time. In 2009 I became a police officer and continued to serve homeowners during my off duty time. I enjoyed being in law enforcement, but my true passion for construction just wouldn’t subside. I left the police force in April of 2018, and have never been happier.
