Brad and Lisa - Owners

Founders Brad and Lisa Dionne started their Merry Maid franchise journey back in 1987, before most people had ever heard of a house cleaning “service”. Back then, it was all about 18 hour work days… doing every job the company required from cleaning, customer service, accounting, inventory control, marketing, hiring, training and meeting with potential customers to give bids. It was a “bootstrapping” story if ever there was one! Thankfully as the business grew so did their ability to hire more and more team members to fill those roles. Before long, they had 9 offices in a 4 state area and boasted a team of over 300. They became the largest Merry Maid franchise owners in the country, and in 1996 they received the most prestigious award given to owners, the Dallen Peterson Founders Award. They credit their success to the exceptional quality of people they were able to bring to the business and their dedication to uncompromising customer service. Despite all this, their greatest pride and joy in life come from their beautiful children Emily, Cooper, and son-in-law Brett, and their faithful yellow lab “Banjo”.
