      <title>Supreme Restoration Services Inc. Joins the GUS Network in Windsor, Ontario</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Expansion Continues for One of Canada’s Fastest Growing Restoration Companies</p><p>Windsor, ON -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 06/25/2019 --  Jonathan Christensen, Director of Franchise Development of GUS (<a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="www.gus.ca" href="http://www.gus.ca">www.gus.ca</a>) is proud to announce that Supreme Restoration (<a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="www.supremerestoration.ca" href="http://www.supremerestoration.ca">www.supremerestoration.ca</a>) has successfully partnered with GUS to further expand the growing network of restoration companies.  Supreme Restoration was founded in 2010 as a full-service, multi-faceted restoration and renovation company and its services have grown to include Asbestos Abatement.<br />
<br />
The addition of Supreme Restoration to the GUS family firmly cements the network&apos;s coverage in south western Ontario and is the latest organization to join the growing network.  Dan Radmore, President of Supreme Restoration comments "The name Supreme means we strive to exceed the expectations of clients and insurance industry stakeholders.  It&apos;s how we&apos;ve built our business and how we continue to grow. With the GUS network, we&apos;ve found the perfect partnership that allows us to maintain our individual identity and reputation while providing representation on the national stage."<br />
<br />
Jonathan Christensen, Director of Franchise Development said "I am very excited to have Dan Radmore, Stuart Cameron, Steve Asher, and the rest of the Supreme Restoration team as part of our network in Windsor/Essex.  They&apos;ve built a great reputation within the Windsor community for home owners and property manager&apos;s alike and the timing couldn&apos;t be better.  Shortly after joining the GUS Network, Supreme was put to the test with record rainfall and strong winds.  Not only were they able to handle a large number of insurance claims in a short period of time, but they also acted as a quarter back for many of our other locations who came to the area to assist with the cleanup.  Each of our territories are non-restrictive, so this type of teamwork is exactly what we look for in a new partner."<br />

      <title>Complete Care Restoration Services Joins the GUS Network</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Canada’s fastest growing restoration network continues Western expansion</p><p>Markham, ON -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 11/07/2018 --  President of GUS (<a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="www.gus.ca" href="http://www.gus.ca">www.gus.ca</a>) is pleased to announce a successful partnership between GUS and Complete Care Restoration Services (<a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="www.completecarerestoration.ca" href="http://www.completecarerestoration.ca">www.completecarerestoration.ca</a>). Owned and operated by Kelly Tackaberry, Richard Chudek, and Rod Donahue, Complete Care Restoration is the fourth location in Alberta for GUS as the rapidly growing network further strengthens its presence in the West.<br />
<br />
Complete Care Restoration has been the go-to full-service restoration provider for the Greater Edmonton area since 2013.  Their expert team delivers a full complement of services including fire, flood, and wind damage restoration, mold remediation, asbestos abatement, and contents cleaning in their own in-house contents processing facility. Well known in the community, Complete Care has become the first point of contact for emergency restoration for many health facilities in Edmonton, and their strong reputation for excellence recently led Alberta Health to approach them for a consultation. Complete Care was proud to provide them with models of their stringent site containment and infection control procedures, which Alberta Health has since used to set the new ministry standard.<br />
<br />
With over 25 years of experience in the insurance industry and more than a decade&apos;s worth of experience in restoration, co-owner Richard Chudek serves as Complete Care&apos;s primary estimator, reconstruction services manager, and director of the insurance claim loss division. Richard comments, "Our team is very excited to become part of this well-established national network. Partnering with GUS is the perfect opportunity for us to build upon the Complete Care name and maintain what makes us unique while being represented at a national level." 	<br />
<br />
Co-owner Kelly Tackaberry also has nearly 30 years experience in the insurance industry and ten-plus years in restoration under his belt, having worked together with Richard since 1990. Kelly operates as the emergency services project manager in addition to overseeing all contents claims processes. Kelly adds, "Our top priority is making sure our clients and industry stakeholders are completely satisfied with our care – it&apos;s in our name and it&apos;s what we strive to achieve every time. Partnering with a national network like GUS will give us access to additional resources to help us offer our customers the exceptional service they deserve."<br />
<br />
Head of Complete Care&apos;s property management loss division and working project manager on specific projects, co-owner Rod Donahue spent 10 years building new homes before going into restoration a decade ago. Rod remarks, "We are thrilled to team up with GUS for the next step of our journey, and excited for the opportunity to reach new people and exceed their expectations with the high standards of service Complete Care is known for." <br />
<br />
Rene-Charles Landry, President of GUS, comments, "Complete Care Restoration is an excellent addition to the GUS network. They have been fantastic to work with - their team is highly skilled, personable, and fully committed to customer satisfaction and quality, which is evident in the top-notch services they provide and in the response they&apos;ve received from the community. We are looking forward to helping their company grow and build even further on their success."<br />

      <title>GUS Expands Into Saskatchewan as Inspect It All Services Joins Network</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Established restoration network adds location in Regina.</p><p>Markham, ON -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 10/22/2018 --  Rene-Charles Landry, President of GUS (<a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="www.gus.ca" href="http://www.gus.ca">www.gus.ca</a>), is pleased to announce a successful partnership between GUS and Inspect It All Services (<a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="www.inspectitall.ca" href="http://www.inspectitall.ca">www.inspectitall.ca</a>) of Regina, further expanding GUS&apos;s growing portfolio of full-service restoration companies in the west. Inspect It All is the first company in Saskatchewan to partner with GUS as the damage restoration network continues its rapid nationwide expansion.<br />
<br />
Founded in 2015, Inspect It All Services is a family owned, multifaceted business that has quickly become an important part of the Regina community. Initially focusing on providing home inspections and mold inspections to local residents, Inspect It All soon extended their services as demand increased for their specialized knowledge and skills in property restoration. Today, Inspect It All offers fire, flood, and wind damage restoration, cleaning, inspections, air quality testing, reconstruction, and rebuild services for residential and commercial clients.<br />
<br />
Ashley Read, Owner and General Manager of Inspect It All, was working as a Business Analyst when she discovered a passion for the industry through her husband Mike Cornford. Before long, she decided to switch careers and devote herself full time to their business. "Partnering with an established national network is an exciting next step for Inspect It All," said Ashley. "We&apos;ve worked tirelessly over the past few years, launching our business and quickly developing it into a successful enterprise. GUS is the ideal partner for us – allowing us to maintain our identity and hard-earned reputation without limiting our market area and our potential for future growth."<br />
<br />
With multiple IICRC certifications and more than 15 years in the restoration industry, Mike Cornford, Owner and Senior Project Manager of Inspect It All, has previous experience in operations. When the opportunity arose to start his own unique family business with his wife, Mike decided it was time to branch out and embrace a new venture. Mike said, "Inspect It All Services is proud to join a trusted network of professionals that shares the same values of integrity, accountability, compassion, and teamwork that we&apos;ve built our company upon. With the support of the GUS network, we will be able to reach even more people and have access to more resources to help us take our business to the next tier of success."<br />
<br />
Rene-Charles Landry, President of GUS, said, "GUS prides itself on partnering with the most skilled and dynamic industry professionals, and we&apos;ve found a perfect fit for our network with Inspect It All Services. Their unwavering commitment to provide each and every client with top notch service is exactly what we look for in a new partner. GUS is pleased to have the chance to provide their team with new opportunities for growth and introduce their brand of excellence to the national marketplace."<br />

      <title>GUS Partners with Total Restoration Services in Kelowna, Penticton, and Vernon, BC</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Fast-growing restoration network adds three new locations in the Okanagan Valley.</p><p>Windsor, ON -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 08/13/2018 --  Rene-Charles Landry, President of GUS (<a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="www.gus.ca" href="http://www.gus.ca">www.gus.ca</a>) is pleased to announce that Total Restoration Services (<a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="www.totalrestoration.ca" href="http://www.totalrestoration.ca">www.totalrestoration.ca</a>) has successfully partnered with GUS, adding three new locations in Kelowna, Penticton, and Vernon, BC to the fast-growing restoration network as GUS continues its rapid expansion across Western Canada.<br />
<br />
Founded in 2002, Total Restoration Services is a full-service disaster restoration provider specializing in flood, fire, and storm damage restoration, mold remediation, cleaning, and storage services. After a devastating fire ripped though Okanagan Mountain Park in 2003, Total Restoration Services gained widespread recognition for their work cleaning, repairing, and restoring hundreds of affected homes. Since then, the team has attended many significant interprovincial disasters, including the 2013 floods in Alberta, the Fort McMurray fires of 2016, and the 2017 Kelowna floods. Total Restoration is also strongly committed to giving back to the community, regularly sponsoring local athletes, sports teams, charity events, and hosting events in the community. <br />
<br />
The company&apos;s founder and President, Ken Malcolm, is a 36-year veteran of the restoration industry. After years of managing companies for other people, Ken decided it was time to start his own business, opening Total Restoration in Kelowna with a satellite location in Vernon. "Our amazing team has worked tirelessly over the last 16 years to build Total Restoration Services into the leading restoration company in the Okanagan Valley," Ken said. "GUS is the perfect partner for us – giving us a national presence while allowing us to maintain our uniqueness and the identity we worked so hard to create." <br />
<br />
Marisa Wilson, Managing Partner of Total Restoration&apos;s Kelowna location, joined the team in a supervisory role, working her way up to project and general management and eventually co-ownership of the company with Ken. Marisa said, "We are an &apos;above and beyond&apos; type of company where our homeowners or insureds always come first. With the GUS network, we now have access to additional resources so we can more easily provide our clients with the first-rate services they have come to expect from us."<br />
<br />
Rob Nazer, Owner of Total Restoration&apos;s Penticton location, opened the site 10 years ago with just three employees. Today, employing over 20 people and having just relocated to a larger 6000 sq. ft. space, Rob is eager to see what the future holds. Rob said, "Our partnership with GUS is an integral next step in the evolution of Total Restoration Services. As part of such a well-established network, we&apos;re excited to be able to connect with more clients and develop stronger relationships with those in need of our help." <br />
<br />
Conan Ackert joined Total Restoration&apos;s Vernon office in 2009 as a managing partner, and has since grown the business into the success it is today, employing more than 20 staff members and a large pool of reliable subcontractors. In 2017, Conan became its sole owner.  "Each claim is unique, and in most cases our clients need us more than ever," Conan said. "Our staff are some of the most compassionate and reliable people you will ever meet. That&apos;s why we&apos;re excited to represent GUS in the Okanagan as part of a large network of like-minded professionals that share our values and our vision for providing exceptional customer service to our clients."<br />
<br />
Rene-Charles Landry, President of GUS, comments, "We are thrilled to have Total Restoration Services on board. Their highly experienced team of professionals are at the top of their field and are unmatched in skill and dedication to their craft. They have built a fantastic reputation for themselves, not just as community leaders, but also as industry leaders in BC. Their diligent client-focused approach makes them truly stand out amongst the competition and has helped them grow their business into the success it is today. Total Restoration is a perfect fit for GUS, and we look forward to representing them on a national basis."<br />

Jason&apos;s successful disaster restoration background, combined with my institutional construction experience, brings a unique service offering to the GUS organization and Halton residents."<br />
<br />
Jonathan Christensen, Director of Franchise Development, said, "Jason and Stuart are the perfect partners to launch a new location in the Halton Region.  They both bring a unique skillset to the table, and this was clearly on display during the recent clean-up effort in Windsor where they assisted our local &apos;Supreme Restoration&apos; location with the workload.  I am especially thrilled with GUS Halton as this is Jason&apos;s second location within the GUS network.  There is no better indication of the strength of a franchised network than when your current franchisees are opening new locations and moving into new territories.  Jason is the second franchisee to achieve this level of success this year, and I&apos;m looking forward to similar announcements in the near future."<br />

      <title>Hudson Restoration Joins the GUS Network in Toronto</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Expansion Continues for One of Canada’s Fastest Growing Restoration Companies</p><p>Toronto, ON -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 10/20/2016 --  Jonathan Christensen, Director of Franchise Development of GUS (<a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="www.gus.ca" href="http://www.gus.ca">www.gus.ca</a>) is proud to announce that Hudson Restoration Inc. (<a class="extlink"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow noopener" title="www.hudsonrestoration.com" href="http://www.hudsonrestoration.com">www.hudsonrestoration.com</a>) has successfully partnered with GUS to further expand the growing network of restoration companies in the Greater Toronto Area.  <br />
<br />
Hudson Restoration was founded in 2010 as a full-service restoration company, specializing in all types of property loss, environmental remediation and odour removal. They are also specialists in the reconstruction of Heritage Buildings.  <br />
<br />
Since 2010, Hudson has built an unmatched reputation within the insurance industry for high-end residential and commercial property loss. In 2011 Hudson Restoration reopened the doors of the Black Bull Restaurant &amp; Tavern in downtown Toronto in only three days after a large fire. "Business interruption was very important to the insured as well as the insurance company and we understand the need to accommodate these demands," says Steve Hudson, President of Hudson Restoration. Working with the Heritage Preservation Services office at Toronto City Hall, the company was able to preserve much of the original architecture, while focusing on reopening the business as quickly as possible.<br />
<br />
Hudson Restoration is the latest addition to the GUS network, which is comprised of over 240 restoration companies across the country.  Steve Hudson, President of Hudson Restoration comments "For the last six years we&apos;ve focused all of our energy on building a restoration company focused on timely customer service for high-end "private client" insurers.  This has meant emergency restoration for properties that competitors weren&apos;t willing to touch, as well as helping out Canadians in far away places – most recently in Fort McMurray.  I&apos;m happy that we&apos;re able to represent the GUS network in Toronto and look forward to building greater relationships with those who need our specific kind of help."<br />
<br />
Jonathan Christensen, Director of Franchise Development said "We couldn&apos;t be happier to have the Hudson team on board.  With a background in both insurance and construction, they fully understand the importance of transparency, communication and timely service within the insurance process. We&apos;ve seen the dedication and the results.  The entire Hudson team is committed to an elevated level of customer service and is in the unique position to offer a wide variety of specialized services.  This is what clients have come to expect from a restoration company – particularly in Toronto where a building&apos;s needs are equally unique."<br />
