My Story

In 1967, my father, Jack started a specialty cleaning company in Columbus, Ohio and named it Cameron Service Co. We did commercial window cleaning in support of a large janitorial company that my father had started 8 years earlier. Two years later we started carpet cleaning to support the already growing janitorial business. My father would take me on weekends to run buckets for the crews and eventually taught me to clean carpets. (It was tough in the' old days').

In 1978 after graduating from high school, my father brought me on board full-time. We purchased our first truck-mounted system. After college, I approached dad and said, "That truck sits around all day, let's clean people's homes." I saw the light bulb go on in my father's head. Within 2 years we had another truck-mounted system. I had crews going out during the day and another group going out at night.

When my son was born, I named him Cameron. During his teenage years, he helped me on weekends during the summers.

As soon as my father was diagnosed with Alzheimer's, I sold the business to move to Naples, Florida and assist my mother in dad's care. Now that both parents have gone home to be with the Lord, Cameron and I decided to honor our family's legacy and start a new company here.

Cameron's son, Corbin joined the USMC Reserves after high school and is eager to work with his father and I when he isn't on duty. (That's  4th generation, if you're keeping score)
