SERVPRO is nationwide with over 1,700 franchises in the United States, and some in Canada. Before SERVPRO became the big franchise it is today it started off as just a single painting business. In 1967 Ted and Doris Isaacson opened that painting business in Sacramento California. Soon after opening the company turned into a franchise of cleanup and restoration experts. SERVPRO sold its first franchise in 1969, and 10 years later in 1979 SERVPRO acquired Bristol-Myers Domesticare division which had 175 franchises. 1988 SERVPRO decided to relocated its head quarters from California to Gallatin Tennessee. At that point SERVPRO had 647 franchises in the United States. In 1991 SERVPRO was named the small business of the year by the Nashville Business Journal, becoming a key contributor in the community. SERVPRO corporate in the year 2000 sold its 1000th franchise and continued its impressive growth even into today. Now with 1700 SERVPRO franchises nationwide SERVPRO continues to be a growing successful business. The privately owned company SERVPRO Industries, Inc is still guided by second-generation executive leadership. From 2004-2018 SERVPRO has been ranked #1 in the Restoration Services Category.
