I started in 1998 for Service Master. I worked there for 5 years, they put me through my IICRC courses, then I quit, and within 2 months I was open for business for myself.
Sears isnt really big where Im at, I would say Serv-Pro is probably my biggest competition. Think'n bout venturing out for your self???
