History
Ted and Doris Isaacson launched Servpro Industries in 1967 as a painting business in Sacramento, California.[3] With a background in cleaning and restoration, they transformed the company into a franchisor of cleanup and restoration specialists. After selling its first franchise in 1969, Servpro continued to grow, acquiring the Bristol-Myers Domesticare Division and its 175 franchises in 1979, and developing a highly regarded national franchise.[4][5]
