A Family Tradition of Fixing Homes
The L.E. Brown Story
In 1992, after 17 years of service with the government, Larry Brown decided to follow a different calling: helping families keep their homes running smoothly. He started L.E. Brown Home Improvement, a one-man shop where he tackled everything from leaky faucets to painting projects. He even brought his young son Michael along, passing on the knowledge and skills of the trade.
Larry always believed in keeping things personal. He focused on building relationships with his clients, treating them like neighbors rather than just customers. This meant keeping the business small, often relying on family and friends who shared his values.
About 12 years ago, the company officially became an LLC, with Michael taking the reins and managing the day-to-day operations. Though growth was possible, Michael chose to stay true to his father’s legacy. He valued the close connections with clients and the ability to ensure top-notch workmanship on every project.
Today, L.E. Brown remains a family-oriented business, dedicated to providing exceptional service and building trust with each client. Michael, along with his team of skilled and reliable professionals, carries on the tradition of his father, ensuring your home receives the care and attention it deserves.

Meet Michael Brown
Owner of L.E. Brown Home Improvement
Born and raised in the heart of Warrenton, VA, Michael Brown’s journey into the world of plumbing and home improvement began early in life. His passion for sports, particularly football and basketball, shaped his discipline and determination from a young age.
A proud graduate of Fauquier High School in 2001, Michael continued his academic pursuits at Shepherd College in Shepherdstown, West Virginia. In 2005, he proudly earned his bachelor’s degree in business administration, laying the foundation for his future endeavors.
However, Michael’s education extended beyond the classroom. Growing up, he immersed himself in the family business, L.E. Brown Home Improvement, established by his father in 1992. Learning the trades became second nature to him, thanks to his father’s guidance.
Michael’s roots in the industry run deep, with a grandfather who owned an excavation business and a first cousin excelling in the HVAC contracting field. During high school and college breaks, Michael actively worked alongside both, gaining invaluable insights into trade skills and business management.
In 1992, after 17 years of service with the government, Larry Brown decided to follow a different calling: helping families keep their homes running smoothly. He started L.E. Brown Home Improvement, a one-man shop where he tackled everything from leaky faucets to painting projects. He even brought his young son Michael along, passing on the knowledge and skills of the trade.

Today, L.E. Brown remains a family-oriented business, dedicated to providing exceptional service and building trust with each client. Michael, along with his team of skilled and reliable professionals, carries on the tradition of his father, ensuring your home receives the care and attention it deserves.
Post-graduation, Michael dedicated five years to his father’s business before exploring new horizons. His experience broadened with a prominent plumbing outfit in northern Virginia. However, the call of family and the legacy of L.E. Brown Home Improvement beckoned him back after his father’s retirement.
Over the last twelve years, Michael has not only earned his master’s plumbing license and master’s gas fitters license but has also taken the reins of L.E. Brown Home Improvement, steering it towards continued success. His commitment to excellence, honed through years of hands-on experience, ensures that the company stands as a trusted name in plumbing and home improvement.
With a rich history in the industry and a dedication to quality craftsmanship, Michael Brown leads L.E. Brown Home Improvement with a vision for excellence, providing unparalleled service to the Warrenton community and beyond.
