A Local Talent with Deep Roots

Zach Perkins was born and raised in the Springfield, MO area, with Branson, MO being his hometown. He attended Parkview High School in Springfield, where he developed a strong foundation that would later support his career in the contracting industry.

When the opportunity arose to work with Hunter at Xtreme Exteriors, Zach seized it with both hands.

Hunter recognized Zach’s potential early on, inviting him to join the team when the company was still in its infancy. Despite leaving the company for a couple of years, Zach and Hunter maintained contact. When Hunter expanded the company, he reached out to Zach, inviting him to return. Since then, Zach has been an integral part of Xtreme Exteriors, helping it grow and succeed over the past 14 years.
