Background of Greg Schall
Greg Schall comes to this role with extensive experience in both hospitality operations and facility conditions, a combination that makes his appointment particularly strategic. He graduated from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, earning his degree in Hospitality Management. Schall’s career began with Hyatt Hotels, where he dedicated two decades to hotel management and operations before transitioning to the architectural surface restoration industry.

Recognizing that the hospitality industry thrives on consistency and trust, Schall emphasized that SOLID has built its reputation on these principles. The restoration and maintenance services provided by SOLID are critical, as they help to ensure that hotel guests experience a sense of renewal and well-being upon entering the properties.
This appointment taps into SOLID's strategic alliance with Marcoat, known for its proprietary grout and stone systems which have gained recognition as trusted standards in hospitality environments. By integrating these innovative product installations into their service offerings, SOLID intends to leverage its extensive nationwide network of 38 offices to provide consistent quality and service delivery for its hospitality partners.
