Services[edit]
PuroClean provides water damage remediation, flood water removal, fire and smoke damage remediation, and mold removal for residential and commercial customers. Specialty services are provided by many franchise owners, such as biohazard clean-up and reconstruction.
History[edit]
In 2001, Dick Spohn and Rory O’Dwyer founded PuroSystems also known as PuroClean as a property restoration company. In 2007, Spohn sold 50 percent of the company to David McKinnon, CEO of Service Brands International.[1]
Around September 2013, the company appointed franchise executive Steve White as its Chief Operating Officer. White established a customer service approach, initial training, continuing education and a reinforced field support model.[2]
In September 2015, property restoration business owners Mark W. Davis and Frank Torre of Michigan acquired 80 percent of PuroClean. Upon joining the franchise, Davis became CEO, and Chairman and Torre assumed the role as Vice Chairman.[3] In July 2019, PuroClean held the largest-ever signing of a U.S. Military Statement of Support at the PuroClean International Convention led by Chris Sanford, a Rhode Island-based Navy reservist who opened his PuroClean franchise in October 2007.[4] The U.S. Military Statement of Support was signed and agreed to by more than 140 members of the PuroClean brand.
In September 2019, Mark W. Davis and Frank Torre acquired the remaining 20 percent of the company and became 100 percent owners of PuroClean.[5]
Training and Support[edit]
PuroClean offers new and existing franchise owners training, online learning programs, and technical assistance through the PuroClean Academy. This three-week training covers technical, financial, operations, business management, and field training. PuroClean’s 1,200 sq. ft. flood house opened in February 2011.[6] One of only 27 in the world, this state-of-the-art facility provides franchise owners, their team members, and industry professionals real-life, practical instruction in evaluating a water loss, water extraction, inspection, implementation of drying systems, and monitoring and documentation. In March 2019, PuroClean hosted its 100th flood in the flood house attesting to its ongoing training procedures.[7]
