San Diego’s local North County Screenmobile franchise location is now owned and operated by home repair veteran Guy Walker. Walker purchased the business from Dwight Stratton, who is retiring after 22 years in the screening business.
The transition from Stratton to Walker will be seamless for San Diego North County Screenmobile customers. Walker will continue to serve San Diego’s North County within a territory that includes
Del Mar, Camp Pendleton and Borrego Springs.
“The last 13 years of selling the construction of sunrooms and patio covers to homeowners has made me keenly aware of their needs and concerns,” said Guy Walker, owner of San Diego’s North County Screenmobile. “Customer service and solutions to home improvement problems are what I know, and this experience is what differentiates me from other screening companies.”
Walker’s experience in home improvement, as well as the destruction of window screens that he has observed by the tenants of his rental properties, and the summer insects in the area led him to consider a Screenmobile franchise.
“After researching several companies and learning the North County territory was for sale, it became clear to me that the Screenmobile franchise system was a good fit,” said Walker. “I appreciate the efficiency and mobility of the trailer and workbench. Screenmobile is on top of their game, refined and professional.”
“When I hear predictions from the University of Southern California’s Lusk Center for Real Estate that it will take two years before people buy again, it leads me to believe southern California will see an upward trend for investment in property by homeowners,” said Scott Walker, chief executive officer of Screenmobile Corporation, who is not related to the new franchisee, Guy Walker. “While Dwight Stratton will be missed by the Screenmobile family of franchisees, we are delighted to welcome Guy. His wealth of knowledge about home improvement will no doubt play a role in his success.”
