The story
Built from a truck and a $500 trailer.
I started Restoration Heroes in 2009: crawl spaces, mold scrapes, sales calls, middle-of-the-night emergencies. I did all of it, then built the team that did it better than me.
By year five: close to 40 people, past $7 million, and margins the spreadsheet-buyers kept asking me to explain. The brand is still one of the most respected restoration names in Orange County.
These days the thing I’m building is bigger than one company: two boys, a family headed for Idaho, and work I choose: running owner-led businesses from the inside, and looking for the next one worth buying.
