Evan Podgorski

Evan Podgorski

Evan has been in the buiding trades since the age of 16 starting his craft as an interior/exterior painter, later transitioning to a focus on exterior renovation. Having sharpened his blade in all things exterior, Evan went to school for construction management 2012, obtained his roofing license in 2016 and launched Platinum Exteriors in 2020 while also obtaining his Public Insurance Adjusters license in the same year. Evan works as hard as he plays, outside of work if he's not at the dog park playing with his bulldog Wayne, he can be found wrenching on one of his many projects be it the vintage Chevy C10 he's had since highschool or his dirtbikes.

Jonathan Penninger

Jonathan Penninger

Jonathan entered the industry in 2016 as a licensed public insurance adjuster helping navigate policyholders through the claims process and fighting for them in times where their insurance carriers were being less than fair in times of need. He later transitioned into project management and eventually became general manager at a local restoration company. Jonathan is excited to take his experience and apply it to serving all those who choose Platinum Exteriors to serve them. When Jonathan isn't climbing on a roof he is more than likely with his son climbing on a rockwall that they hiked or biked to. If it has wheels or an engine he is using it to take himself or his family on another outdoor adventure. Jonathan is as passionate about the outdoors as he is about serving those in his community be it through volunteer work or working to ensure a clients needs are met in full.

Wes Taylor

Wes Taylor

Wes is a skilled roofer with extensive experience in repairing and restoring damaged roofs as well as new construction. Years of hands on, hard earned experience translates to someone Platinum Exteriors confidently calls on day in day out to oversee operations go seamlessly and smoothly. If it hasn't been made crystal clear about his position on heights, let it be known he is a regular at the local dirtbike track regularly sending it off anything with an incline.  

Jessica Lies

Jessica Lies

Following in her parent’s footsteps, Jessica has a love for all things design. And why wouldn’t she, as she literally grew up in the business. Jessica graduated with an architecture degree from the Illinois Institute of Technology and is a fully licensed architect in four states. It can be said she’s not afraid to get her hands dirty both at the office and outside of work as she loves all things off road from Mountain biking to Jeeping. One thing’s for sure, having Jessica on board certainly helps keep Platinum Exteriors in the fast lane for future success.
