Who We Are

The 911 Restoration Mission:
Fresh Starts for Every Customer, Every Time

911 Restoration was founded on a single, defining conviction: that when disaster strikes a home or business, the response should be more than fast and professional — it should be transformative. The brand’s Fresh Start philosophy is not a marketing tagline. It is the operational and cultural foundation that every franchisee, technician, and corporate team member works from every day.

Mission-Driven Brand

Every job is an opportunity to deliver a genuine Fresh Start — not just a repair, but a restoration of normalcy and peace of mind.

Franchisee-First Culture

Corporate exists to serve franchisees. Every system, tool, and support resource is designed to help franchise owners build profitable, sustainable businesses.

Transparent Performance

911 Restoration publishes its complete FDD Item 19 earnings data — one of the only restoration brands in the industry to do so.

Protected Territories

Every franchisee owns an exclusive protected territory. Your market is yours — no competing 911 Restoration owner will operate within it.

Our Story

How 911 Restoration Became One of the
Best Restoration Franchise Companies in the US

911 Restoration was founded by Idan Shpizear with a vision that the restoration industry — dominated by large, impersonal corporations — could be transformed by owner-operators who genuinely cared about the people they served. From a single location in Los Angeles, the brand has grown into one of the fastest-expanding restoration franchise networks in North America.

2007

Founded in Los Angeles

Idan Shpizear launches 911 Restoration with a single crew and a commitment to delivering genuine Fresh Starts to homeowners dealing with water damage and property emergencies.

After proving the model in the LA market, 911 Restoration opens its franchise program — giving entrepreneurs across the country access to the brand, systems, and support to build their own restoration businesses.

The Fresh Start Philosophy

What the Fresh Start Philosophy
Means for Franchise Owners

“Every disaster is an opportunity to give someone a Fresh Start. That belief is what drives every franchisee in our network — and it is what separates 911 Restoration from every competitor we face.”

The Fresh Start philosophy is the operational foundation of every 911 Restoration franchise. It is the reason the brand maintains a 4.9-star Google rating system-wide across 300+ locations — not because customers are satisfied with the repair work, but because they feel genuinely cared for during the worst moments of a property emergency.

For franchise owners, the Fresh Start philosophy is also a competitive advantage. In a market where most restoration competitors are impersonal contractors focused on job throughput, 911 Restoration franchisees build genuine community relationships — with customers, with insurance adjusters, and with referral partners who recommend the brand because they trust the people behind it.

This is what the corporate team means when it says the brand is mission-driven: the mission creates results. Higher ratings drive more inbound calls. Stronger referral relationships drive higher-revenue jobs. A team that believes in what it does delivers better service — which drives the review volume and word-of-mouth that compound over years into market dominance.
