The fourth of eleven children of Joseph Nicholas (Nick) Schaaf (1855-1933) and Anna Mary (Annie or Auntie Jo) Schlee (1857-1930), Val married Florence C. McNulty (1886-1982) on 8 July 1913. The couple raised four children: Florence Delores (1914-1977), Agnes Lillian (1916-2008), Robert Joseph (1920-1944), and John Richard (Jack) (1922-2009). After initially working for Peters Billards (a Brunswick distributor) as a young man, in 1911, Val founded the Schaaf Manufacturing Company of Minneapolis, which made sought-after billiard tables and accessories and designed the bowling alley in the Coffman Memorial Union Building at the University of Minnesota, among other recreational and dining facilities. The company operated from 1911 into the 1960s and was run by Val's son Jack after Val's death.
