## Story

As severe weather events become increasingly common, the need for restoration and recovery services is steadily growing. ServiceMaster Restore provides residential and commercial restoration services in response to water, fire, smoke and mold damage. With more than 2,000 units, the brand is expanding to bring both entrepreneurial opportunities and much-needed resources to the communities it enters.

ServiceMaster Restore kicked off 2026 by launching 29 new territories and signing 32 new location commitments, including 29 expansion agreements with current owners, signaling strong satisfaction within the system.

“The potential in the restoration sector only continues to grow, and we’re excited to drive brand expansion in line with it,” said Jeff Todd, chief development officer. “"Demand for professional restoration services continues to grow, and we're committed to expanding our footprint to better serve communities across North America. We're seeing continued investment from existing franchise owners while also building a stronger pipeline of new candidates. That combination positions us well for sustainable, long-term growth."

Sophisticated investors with professional backgrounds who pursue resale opportunities with the brand have driven notable growth for the system.

“We're attracting owners who are taking a long-term approach to building their businesses,” Todd said. “They're investing thoughtfully in their markets, developing strong local operations, and creating a foundation for sustainable growth.”

As ServiceMaster Restore grows, the team continues to prioritize a local presence, emphasizing the fact that restoration services are incredibly personal, and the need is highly local. As such, maintaining a truly local presence is a top priority.

Andrea and Amos Webster, who joined the system earlier this year, exemplify this value and demonstrate just how important it really is. After their own subpar experience with a restoration provider and a family member’s incredible experience with ServiceMaster Restore, the pair chose to pursue ownership with the brand and recently opened in the Alexandria, Virginia, area.

“What stood out to me was the community involvement. After speaking with other franchisees, it was clear this brand isn’t just about business — it’s about people,” Amos said. “Yes, financial success matters, but making a real difference is what drives us.”

“ServiceMaster provides clear expectations and a structured process,” Andrea said. “Our goal is to be that steady voice for customers on their worst day.”

Looking toward the remainder of the year, ServiceMaster Restore is looking to continue steady growth with entrepreneurs who are motivated to achieve business success and equally fulfilled by providing a true service to their communities. From new territory development to strengthen its presence across the nation to resale and conversion opportunities, ServiceMaster Restore is providing a compelling opportunity to investors who will lead and serve their communities. Currently, the brand is targeting growth across the Southeast and Midwest with plans to award 30 additional agreements before year-end.

It offers a 20% discount on the franchise fee for military veterans.
