Tamarac, FL (December 20, 2010) – One of the nation’s leading property restoration companies, PuroClean is #99 on Entrepreneur magazine’s Franchise 500®, known as the world’s first, best, and most comprehensive franchise ranking.

According to Entrepreneur, all companies, regardless of size, are judged by the same criteria: objective, quantifiable measures of a franchise operation. The most important factors include financial strength and stability, growth rate and size of the system. They also consider the number of years a company has been in business and the length of time it's been franchising, startup costs, litigation, percentage of terminations, and whether the company provides financing. Financial data are analyzed by an independent CPA.
The objective factors are plugged into the exclusive Franchise 500® formula, with each eligible company receiving a cumulative score. The 500 franchises with the highest cumulative scores become the Franchise 500®.

PuroClean Acquires In-House Expert in Catastrophe and Large Loss Operations
Tamarac, FL (October 29, 2010) - With more than 23 years of experience in the disaster recovery industry, Tom McGuire will play a critical new role in catapulting PuroClean to becoming the top choice for property emergency services across the nation. As the new Director of Catastrophe and Large Loss Operations, McGuire will work closely with PuroClean's recently formed Business Development Division to market the Network's ability to mobilize and help clients recover from large-scale disasters, that could require emergency water and fire damage restoration.
McGuire joins PuroClean after 16 years at Munters Corporation, a global leader in structural drying and emergency restoration services, where he served as the National Catastrophe Manager and Document Recovery Manager for North America. He was involved with managing recovery efforts for clients impacted by some of the most significant disasters in U.S. history, including the World Trade Center Bombing (1993), Hurricane Katrina, and the summer 2010 flooding of Nashville, TN.
"Tom is a natural leader and his ability to efficiently and effectively manage people and logistic in times of crisis make him a great fit for this position," said Lauren Reid, CEO and President of PuroClean. "He is an invaluable asset to our team and to the more than 300 franchise locations we support across the country."
In addition to securing large-scale emergency restoration jobs for PuroClean, McGuire will spearhead the ongoing education of the franchise network to prepare more and more offices for involvement in catastrophic clean up events. He will lead PuroClean's large-scale recovery efforts from the ground and empower franchise owners to grow their businesses by taking on more large loss projects including emergency water damage restoration and fire damage restoration.
"It was a difficult decision to leave a company where I've developed my skill set and career for the last 16 years, but after meeting with the team at PuroClean's home office, I knew that I'd be joining a group of terrific people that are truly dedicated to this line of work," said McGuire.

Left unchecked, water leaks can be a house's worst enemy.
"Water is one of the most destructive things to a house," says David Tamny, president of the American Society of Home Inspectors. "It can account for so many things going wrong in a structure."
Water damage is the second most-common cause of damage in homes, following fires, says Scott Spencer, world-wide appraisal and loss-prevention manager for insurer Chubb Group.
