This acquisition will add 45 employees and 30 service vehicles to its organization, making it the largest Stanley Steemer franchise in sales volume in the nation.
This expansion will allow Stanley Steemer of South Florida to expand its core services from Homestead to Sebastian. These residential and commercial services will include carpet and floor cleaning, water damage restoration, mold remediation, air duct cleaning, dryer vent cleaning, furniture cleaning, and fire remediation. The acquisition includes the offices in Doral and Dania Beach and will increase its fleet of service vehicles to 90 and employees to 150.
“We jumped at the chance to acquire these operations in Broward and Miami-Dade as we’ve been impressed with the team that is in place there. They will fit in perfectly with our culture of hard work and respect for the customers. I’m also excited that whether it’s a residential or commercial project in South Florida, there is no job too big for our team,” said Tom Scalera, President and CEO of Stanley Steemer of South Florida.
