Why Choose Clean Green Over a Franchise? The Local Difference That Matters

When your home is flooded, your crawlspace smells like mildew, or your walls are coated in smoke damage, your first instinct might be to Google the biggest name in restoration. And we get it—national franchises look impressive online.
But when it comes down to the people who actually show up at your door, the difference between a franchise and a family-owned local team like Clean Green Restoration is night and day.
Here’s why more homeowners and businesses in Springfield, Nixa, Ozark, Branson, and the entire 417 area are choosing Clean Green over the big guys—and what it could mean for your next emergency.
We’re Not Just Local. We’re Rooted Here.
We didn’t buy into a brand—we built ours from scratch.
Clean Green Restoration was born in
Nixa, Missouri, with the goal of being the
most trusted, heart-led restoration company in Southwest Missouri.
You’ll find us volunteering at events, sponsoring school programs, supporting fellow small businesses, and checking in on clients long after the job is done. You’re not just a number on a spreadsheet to us—you’re a neighbor.
We Know the Ozarks Like the Back of Our Hand
Franchises follow a national playbook. We follow experience—and local knowledge.
We know what a
storm-damaged crawlspace in Ozark looks like.
We’ve dealt with
Branson humidity and mold behind vinyl siding.
We know how to talk to
417 insurance adjusters, which basements flood first in Springfield, and what to check when an old farmhouse smells “off.”
That kind of insight can’t be taught in a corporate training—it comes from years of living and working right here in the Ozarks.
No Rotating Crews. Just Our People.
At Clean Green, we don’t subcontract strangers or send different crews every day. When you work with us, you get a tight-knit, IICRC certified team that shows up consistently and communicates with care.
You’ll probably meet Miles, our owner, on your job. With nearly 20 years of experience and a background as a licensed insurance adjuster, he knows this work inside and out—and he still answers his phone when a client needs help
.
Recognized for a Reason: Clean Green Leads with Excellence
In 2025, we were honored to be voted Best Damage Restoration Company in Southwest Missouri by the people who matter most—our community.
Personal Touch. Professional Standards.
Yes, we’re IICRC-certified in
mold, water, fire, and smoke restoration.
Yes, we use commercial-grade equipment and handle large loss jobs.
Yes, we work directly with your insurance company.
But here’s what we do that most franchises won’t:
✔️ Show up at 9 PM when your crawlspace floods
✔️ Offer free inspections without pressure
✔️ Explain everything in plain language
✔️ Make sure you’re never left wondering, “What now?”
Because you deserve more than just a cleanup crew—you deserve a team that cares.
FAQ: What’s the Risk of Choosing a Franchise?
Q: Aren’t big companies more experienced?
A: Not always. Many franchises rely on temps or undertrained teams who rotate between locations. At Clean Green, every technician is part of our core crew—fully trained, certified, and proud to represent our name.
Q: Will my insurance cover a local company like Clean Green?
A: Absolutely. You have the right to choose any certified restoration company—and we’ll work directly with your adjuster to make sure it’s seamless.
Q: What if I just need advice or a second opinion?
A: Call us. We offer
free inspections, and we’re happy to walk through what’s really going on—even if someone else has already looked.
Ask Yourself:
If your basement flooded today…
Would you feel more confident with a national call center,
or a local family who lives just down the road?
