Fairfax, VA, April 6, 2022 – Schroeder Design/Build, Inc. of Fairfax, VA was awarded top honors in three categories in the inaugural awards ceremony held by The Professional Remodeling Organization (PRO) Mid Atlantic on Saturday, March 26, 2022 at the Westwood Country Club in Vienna, VA. They include:
- Grand Award Residential Addition $350,000-$500,000
- The Ben Osborne Lifetime Achievement Award
- Community Service Award
Grand Award Residential Addition $350,000-$500,000
Schroeder Design/Build received the highest award – the PRO Remodeler of the Year Grand Award in the category of Residential Addition $350,000-$500,000 – for its innovative two-story addition on a 100+-year-old home in Burke, VA. The homeowners liked the look of the historic home, yet wanted a second-floor contemporary family room with a modern feel for entertaining and gathering, along with a first-floor recreation room with pool access and a bathroom. The challenge was in creating a modern inside space while maintaining the historic look and feel of the home, and blending the two together.
Winners of the PRO Remodeler of the Year Awards represent the best remodeling work in the Mid Atlantic region. The awards are judged by remodeling professionals located outside the region, based on the criteria of problem solving, functionality, aesthetics, craftsmanship, innovation and degree of difficulty. More than 110 entries totaling more than $30,500,000 were submitted for the 2022 PRO Remodeler of the Year Awards.

Throughout the years, Trish has dedicated herself to supporting remodeling in the Mid Atlantic region, serving in a number of capacities including as president, mentor for new members, and currently as Membership Chair for PRO Mid Atlantic.

It is a lifetime achievement award recognizing long-time members for their accomplishments, awards, local community involvement, professionalism and dedication to the remodeling industry.
Community Service Award
In 2021, Schroeder Design/Build celebrated its 35th anniversary with a flagship program called “35 Acts of Kindness” and as a result, was one of the winners of the 2022 PRO Mid Atlantic Community Service Award. Throughout 2021, the company supported three major charities: Hero Dogs, Food for Others and Good Shepherd Housing with large and ongoing campaigns. In addition, it challenged its team to perform additional Acts of Kindness throughout the community. That goal of 35 Acts was exceeded.
The Community Service Award is presented to a PRO member who donates time, energy and materials to help area individuals or groups in need and judged on value of contribution to the community over time and potential future benefits.
