About Dumeau

Home management, done properly.

We're a St. Albert company with one job: to manage every aspect of your home, properly. The right work, by the right people, on the right schedule, all kept on record, with one accountable team behind the result, so running the house stops being something you have to carry.

The short answer

What is home management?

Home management is a single professional service that takes responsibility for a home you actually live in. It plans the maintenance, hires and oversees the trades who do the work, keeps the record of every system, cost and warranty, and answers for the result.

Most people meet the idea as a question rather than a category, because almost nobody local sells it. The shortest version: a property manager keeps a building running, and an asset manager protects its long-term value. We do both, for the home you actually live in.

Not a handyman.
  • We don't swing the hammers.
  • Licensed, insured trades do the work.
  • Our job is the plan, the standard, and the follow-through.
Not property management.
  • We don't manage rentals or tenants.
  • We work for owners, in the homes they live in.
  • Our only client is you.
Not a home warranty.
  • Nothing here is an insurance product, and we don't sell one.
  • There's no claim to file and no list of covered parts.
  • We plan the work and manage it; you approve every cost first.
This is Dumeau.
  • A plan that stays ahead of the house
  • Vetted local partners, booked and managed
  • Straight answers and steady updates
  • A complete record of the work
  • One name accountable for all of it

Why Dumeau exists

Owning a home should feel rewarding, not relentless.

Every homeowner knows the feeling: regular maintenance that gets skipped because life gets in the way, and the project where you don't know where to start, who to call, or most importantly who you can trust. It all lands on the owner.

The mental load

You're the one who has to remember it all: the furnace filter, the eavestroughs, that thing the plumber said to keep an eye on.

The contractor shuffle

Every job means finding someone good, waiting on callbacks, and adding another number to your phone.

The second-guessing

Was the quote fair? Was the work done right? Without someone in your corner, you're left hoping for the best.

The lost weekends

Hours spent running the house are hours you don't get back, and the list seems to never end.

We exist to carry that load: a partner who knows your home, stays ahead of it, and answers for the result.

What changes for you

Deal with the house on a schedule instead of in a panic.

Know what was done, by whom, and for how much.

Keep a proper record of your biggest asset.

Get your weekends back.

Behind Dumeau

Two people, and they live here.

Jeremy and Jess started Dumeau because they wanted one trusted company to hand their own home to, and couldn't find it, so they built it. Between them they bring the professional experience to run a home properly and a lifelong stake in St. Albert, and they built Dumeau to be the dependable partner they were looking for: straight answers, reliable follow-through, and one accountable name behind every job. Their mission is to be the trusted partner that St. Albert and area homeowners rely on to properly manage all aspects of their homes.

You will deal with one of us. Not an outsourced call centre, dispatcher, or hotline that never picks up the phone.

Jess

With a decade of commerce experience across the Edmonton area in retail, land development, and home building marketing, Jess knows first hand what homeowners want, need, and deserve from the people they let into their home. She builds a genuine relationship with every person she comes across, whether that is a member, a neighbour, or a trade at the door, and those relationships are what keep a home well looked after year after year.

Our story

We built the service we couldn't hire.

Running a home properly takes real time: finding good trades, comparing quotes, remembering what's due, checking the work. We watched capable, busy people, ourselves included, let it slide and then pay for it later, so we built the thing we wanted for our own homes. One point of contact who knows your house, a plan for its year, good local trades booked and checked, and a record of all of it.

And the tool

Nobody was selling the software either.

Nothing we could find joined up the three things that actually matter: what the house is made of, what it will need, and what that is going to cost. So we built it, and it comes with every membership.
