OUR HISTORY
The history of Dawkins' Maintenance and Carpet Cleaning Services all began back in the late 60s. I began working part time with another Entrepreneur for 5 years, and felt as though this type of work was my calling. I learned the process, the use of all the cleaning tools, which solvent to use for each job, and marketing the business.
I knew then that I wanted to grow this business and be my own boss. I felt that with the knowledge, experience, plus a man of God, my business would be successful. In 1972 I married Mrs. Rachel Marsh and not only did we join in matrimony, but we joined in business. One of the major commonalities between us were we wanted to be our own boss with a cleaning business.
So we began the process. We purchased tools, supplies, work van, business cards, and brochures. I can remember our first client "High Point Bank and Trust". After a period, we gained a couple more clients, and from then on, our clientele grew. The business grew more than expected and determined that my wife and I could no longer handle it alone. We interviewed and hired a couple more assistance.
Currently our clientele is greater than 10 major companies, and business is great. We currently have 15 technicians employed with our company.
