Company Diversified
1934-1992
In 1934, Mr. Mitchell assumed sole ownership of the company and continued to establish its reputation for high quality craftsmanship in exterior and interior finishes until his sudden unexpected death in 1954. At the age of 24, his oldest son, Jennings H. Mitchell, Jr., replaced his father as president and incorporated the business. During his tenure the company diversified into other construction related fields such as drywall, acoustical ceilings, steel studs, insulation, fireproofing, structural framing and exterior finishes.
