ServiceMaster Clean® franchising was introduced to the UK in 1959 where the first businesses offered both carpet and upholstery cleaning services. Additional services such as disaster restoration, office cleaning (contract cleaning and commercial cleaning), furniture repairs and restoration (Furniture Medic®), domestic cleaning services (Merry Maids®) and lawn care treatments (TruGreen®) were added over the next 45 years, and we now have over 700 franchise licenses established throughout Great Britain.
