Company History
On August 28th, KC Power Clean is officially launched with big dreams at the LA County Clerk’s office.
Kris Cook works hard with a bucket and a squeegee in the back of his truck as a means of working his way through college.
Marriage, graduation, and the need for a bigger business vision. Exterior eco-friendly pressure washing/steam cleaning services are offered and the client base grows steadily.
Matt McQueen joins the team full-time and immediately the business doubles into a two-rig operation.
Service list grows steadily as does the list of happy customers. Special projects this year included stadium cleaning at the likes of Angels Stadium, the Dodgers Stadium, and even the Honda Center.
We see our first action in states other than California as we travel into Arizona, Minnesota, and even Milwaukee for some large and exciting cleaning projects.
We move our operations from Fullerton to Brea and added a few more key members. Cory Klein was one key addition this year which helped pave the way for future management structure.
The team grows to an operation of about 8 full-time employees. We become a dominant presence in the residential cleaning market.
KC Power Clean focuses on growing the commercial cleaning division and looks heavily into the abrasive blasting market.
We completed a milestone project involving over 185 Starbucks stores across the State of CA and grew to a full-time staff of 11 hard-working guys (and 1 gal). 2 highly customized Dustless Blasting rigs are put into operation. This was our first year breaking 7 figures in sales.
Steady growth drove us out of our storage facility and into not 1, but 2 light industrial units over this year. Our sandblast division, commercial power wash, and decorative concrete divisions excelled over the course of the past year as we were able to grow despite losing the large 6 figure revenue from the previous year’s Starbucks contracts.
Our company efficiency improved as we made the switch to a formal workflow software, “Jobber,” which allowed for each of us within the company to pursue higher and better tasks which ultimately allowed our sales to double this year.
A fast-paced year with record sales goals that were a result of a great start out of the gate with our largest single sandblast project ever in Q1, which was a lead based paint abatement project for 40,000 sq ft warehouse that spanned all of January and February. More importantly, KC Power Clean had started receiving some brand recognition in the surface preparation world as we tackled some of the biggest and most challenging jobs in the area.
Highlighted with the commencement of a 4 year contract on a massive commercial power washing portfolio, KC Power Clean was blessed to add management layers to their team and bring more structure to their bustling organization. KC Power Clean also began implementing a business program known as “EOS” which is detailed in a book called Traction by Gino Wickman. This newfound way of life within KC Power Clean may serve as our North Star as we continue our Journey.
We’re excited to say Covid19 only brought our team closer together (while socially distancing right?). Our 3q of 2020 resulted in an all-time sales record for a single quarter. Although our commercial cleaning division took a decent hit due to how hospitality and retail were affected, we were able to pivot and develop a few new verticals or niches with our concrete restoration division.
