“I was quickly drawn to Paul Davis during my franchise search because of their values of service, honesty, and respect. When combined with their large territories, in-depth support, and the ability to build a robust business within their network, I knew I couldn’t go wrong. My only regret is that I didn’t buy in sooner. In my first year of business, I’ve gone from two employees to nine and I’ve been able to exceed revenue targets by 33% and had a ton of fun doing it.”- Keith Burney, Owner Paul Davis Restoration of Southeast Puget Sound, WA
