History of STOP Restoration

The story of STOP Restoration began back in 1971 when our founder, Mack Clark, decided that he wanted to bring big-industry marketing and management systems to small business owners. He left a promising career to help lift the small business world with his trademark management logic and motivation techniques.

Throughout the next 10 years, Mack worked hard to make a name for himself in the cleaning, restoration, and construction industries as an engaging speaker and business consultant. By the mid-1990s, he had a fast-growing list of clients, which was the unofficial beginning of the STOP Restoration franchise.

Since his clients were already using the same systems, marketing, and business strategies, the framework for his franchise was already there. All he had to do was develop the branding and establish territories.

Today, STOP Restoration is one of the most-respected home damage restoration franchises in the nation, with hundreds of millions of dollars in property damage services completed to date.

In 2020, the company was acquired by Authority Brands, the leading provider of home services and parent company of The Cleaning Authority, Homewatch CareGivers, America’s Swimming Pool Company, Mosquito Squad, Benjamin Franklin Plumbing, Mister Sparky, One Hour Heating & Air Conditioning, Monster Tree Service, and DoodyCalls.
