The Gargoyle Training Arena
Built for the Field:
At the Gargoyle Academy, we believe that proficiency is born from practice. Our St. Louis facility isn't just a classroom; it’s a high-fidelity simulation environment. We have moved away from abstract theory to focus on Full-Scale Mock-Ups that mirror the complexity of modern architecture.
• Real-World Geometry: Students work on full-scale roof sections, dormers, and chimney stacks, learning to navigate the physical realities of high-angle work and structural defense.
• The First of Its Kind: As the first dedicated hands-on trade school for the wildlife and pest industry, we provide a standardized arena where professionals from multiple disciplines—pest control, roofing, masonry, and more—can master the "Gargoyle" standard.
• Safe Failure, Expert Success: Our facility allows technicians to test new tools, refine custom metal bends, and practice rope access transitions in a controlled environment. We want you to make your first mistake here, so you can achieve perfection on the job site.
A Partnership for Professional Success
The Gargoyle Academy is proud to collaborate with industry giants to provide our students with an unparalleled learning experience. Our facility is powered by the expertise and innovation of:
• HY-C Company: Students get hands-on experience with the industry’s most trusted chimney caps, screens, and structural repair products, learning the precision of high-quality installation.
• Wildlife Control Supplies (WCS): From specialized exclusion tools to professional-grade traps and deterrents, our partnership ensures you are trained on the cutting-edge gear that defines the modern specialist.
By bringing the best products and the best instructors under one roof, we ensure that a Gargoyle education isn't just about knowledge—it's about having the right tools for a lifetime of protection.
Hand-Selected Master Instructors
At the heart of the Academy is our team of Specialized Master Instructors. These individuals are industry leaders who have spent decades in the field, refining the very techniques they now share with you.
• The Mentor-Craftsman Bond: Our instructors don't just demonstrate; they work alongside you. They are dedicated to a standard of mentorship that ensures every student receives the individual guidance needed to master complex vertical and structural skills.
• A Legacy of Excellence: By sharing "battle-tested" secrets and proprietary methods, our mentors ensure that the next generation of specialists carries forward a legacy of integrity, safety, and superior craftsmanship.
Our Mission
The Gargoyle Academy: Our Mission
The name Gargoyle Academy is rooted in history and purpose. Traditionally, gargoyles were more than just stone figures; they were the primary line of defense for ancient structures, protecting them from the elements and the unknown.
We carry that same mission into the modern era through three core pillars:
• Modern Guardianship: Like the gargoyles of old, we train our students to stand as the ultimate line of defense for property. We focus on identifying vulnerabilities—from wildlife intrusion to structural decay—and fortifying them with vigilance and precision.
• The Mastery of Craft: Protection requires more than just effort; it requires elite craftsmanship. Through our partnerships with industry leaders like HY-C Company and Wildlife Control Supplies, we provide the tools and techniques that set the standard for professional exclusion and repair.
• The Hands-On Arena: True mastery is earned in the field. Our St. Louis facility, opening in Spring 2026, is designed for immersion. We simulate real-world challenges—from high-angle rope access to complex metal solutions—so our graduates leave as true Exclusion Masters.
