Morning coffee with no mosquitoes. Dinner outside while a summer storm rolls past. Quiet evenings beneath the oaks without a film of pollen on the table. Solid Ground makes all of this possible with screen enclosures in Ladue, MO. We craft screened spaces that complement your home’s style and connect seamlessly to your existing deck or patio. You enjoy fresh air and shade while bugs, leaves, and sudden showers stay outside where they belong. Every room goes up on solid framing built for Missouri weather, so it holds up through sweltering summers and bitter winters.
Ladue’s long, oppressive summers can make an open deck nearly unbearable after 5 p.m. Our screen enclosures in Ladue, MO, change that. We frame the space, install tight mesh, and add a roof that channels rain away from your home. Hang a ceiling fan or add soft lighting, and your enclosed patio becomes a go-to spot from April through October.
Ladue's mature tree canopy brings great shade and constant mosquitoes. Our screen enclosures feature durable, tight-weave mesh that keeps insects out and filters much of the spring pollen. Family gatherings on screened porches feel enjoyable again, with nothing buzzing around the table.
St. Louis weather shifts without warning. Our patio enclosures include a reinforced roof and heavy-duty posts so that a fast-moving storm won't end your evening early. Gutters channel water away from the foundation, and the entire structure is sized to handle high winds, downpours, and winter ice.
Our screen rooms connect to steel framing that resists rot, warping, and settling. You get the comfort you'd expect from a sunroom builder, combined with the natural airflow of an open porch. That's how our screen enclosures in Ladue, MO, remain tight, quiet, and ready for guests year after year.
Our story began in 2009, when Tara and Tommy Holstein opened a small deck company called Barefoot Decks. Skilled craftsmanship and genuine trust shaped the work from day one. After the family returned to Missouri, they chose a new name, Solid Ground, and expanded the mission to cover complete outdoor living solutions.
Back then, it was one man and a set of tools. Today it’s a dedicated family operation with every member contributing. Tommy brings decades of carpentry and sales expertise. Tara directs day-to-day operations and keeps every detail on track. Their children lead project management, design, and media, bringing the same commitment and pride to each new space.
EXCELLENT Based on 57 reviews Posted on Google Jason RezabekTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had an outstanding experience with Solid Ground. They helped us design and build a beautiful deck on our home this winter, and the results exceeded every expectation. Our project wasn’t simple — we had an existing roofline that created some unknowns — but their team handled every challenge with professionalism and creativity. They worked alongside us throughout the process, adjusting and refining the design as needed to make sure the final product was exactly what we wanted. Their craftsmanship is excellent, and just as importantly, they’re wonderful people with a wonderful crew. We couldn’t be happier with the finished deck and highly recommend Solid Ground to anyone looking for quality work and a great experience from start to finish.Posted on Google Dennis WhitesellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
