The "Fresh Start" Revolution in Property Restoration
When disaster strikes, most people see destruction. At 911 Restoration, we see an opportunity for a "Fresh Start." We aren’t just a cleanup crew; we are a national powerhouse in the property restoration industry, built on the belief that a flooded basement or a fire-damaged storefront is the beginning of a better tomorrow.
Since our inception, 911 Restoration has redefined the restoration category by blending high-tech mitigation with high-touch emotional intelligence. In a world where property damage is an inevitability of climate shifts and aging infrastructure, we provide a service that is fundamentally recession-resistant. Whether the economy is booming or bracing for a downturn, pipes still burst, mold still grows, and storms still roll in.
Our market positioning is unique: we operate as a premium, compassion-led brand that empowers franchisees to be heroes in their local communities. With our signature orange vans and 45-minute response time, we’ve built a reputation for speed, transparency, and a customer-first culture that turns a traumatic event into a manageable recovery process.

The Journey: The story of 911 Restoration began with two friends—Idan and Peleg—who started with an $800 Volvo and a single carpet cleaning machine. Their journey from "two guys in a truck" to a nationwide empire is a testament to their grit and innovative spirit. They realized that the restoration industry lacked a human element, so they pivoted from simple cleaning to full-scale disaster recovery, centered on their proprietary "Fresh Start" philosophy. Today, the brand is ranked among the top fastest-growing franchises by Entrepreneur Magazine.
