ABOUT US

The Faces Driving Central Illinois Home Improvement

At 1 Stop Home Center, every project starts and ends with a real person—an expert who stands behind their work. Our team is the foundation of our 40-year reputation across Decatur, Bloomington, Champaign, Springfield, Clinton, and throughout the Central Illinois Circle. From Solution Professional Mike Lingenfelter’s hands-on leadership to the specialized skill sets of our managers and technicians, we have built a team structure designed to deliver local accountability and complete project management.


Each member brings a unique depth of experience: Tyler Davis leads Appliance Mart sales with a focus on warranty-backed solutions; Justin Greene ensures Decatur Countertops continues its in-house manufacturing tradition; Justin Schaal manages seamless operations in cabinetry and countertops; and Stefan Begovac delivers technical excellence in appliance service. Our team’s commitment is to make every client’s experience truly “one-stop,” eliminating the hassle of dealing with multiple vendors and offering a single point of contact for your home or business improvement journey.


With every installation, service call, or design consult, our staff prioritizes transparency, reliability, and a consultative approach. We are not just retail associates—we are Solution Professionals, partners invested in your project’s outcome and your peace of mind.

YEARS IN BUSINESS

Local Expertise, Unified Advantage

How Our Team Powers the 1 Stop Advantage

Our team’s structure is purpose-built to uphold the values of in-house expertise, local manufacturing, and trusted service that set 1 Stop Home Center apart. With each legacy brand—Appliance Mart, Decatur Countertops, and Flooring Oasis—our managers bring years of specialty knowledge, ensuring continuity and quality throughout the transition to our unified service model.


In every department, team members take a consultative approach: whether you need a scratch and dent appliance with a factory warranty, custom granite countertops fabricated on-site, fast-turn cabinetry for a home office, or rapid flooring solutions for apartment turnovers, you’ll work directly with the Central Illinois professionals who deliver and install every product. Our cross-trained staff collaborate to eliminate delays and miscommunication, with all services coordinated under one roof at our 7,500+ sq ft Decatur showroom.


By investing in skilled professionals and ongoing training, we maintain our competitive edge over big box retailers and out-of-town contractors. Local ownership, deep community roots, and a “no-flash” philosophy mean our team is focused on results—not gimmicks. When you choose 1 Stop Home Center, you’re working with a team whose reputation is built on trust, technical skill, and the ability to handle every detail from design to installation.
