24/7 Emergency Service
SERVPRO of Danbury / Ridgefield Employee Photos
Scott Yoran Co-owner
I began my SERVPRO career in 1983. I had a desire to learn the industry while helping people dealing with life’s misfortunes. I worked for another SERVPRO for 4 years before buying my current business in August of 1987. I am originally from Ridgefield, CT but have lived in Danbury, CT over 30 years with my wife Nancy and the newest addition to the family, Roscoe.
I have had the pleasure of meeting countless people, from all walks of life, many of whom have needed our services at one time or another. I have always taken great pride in dealing honestly, professionally, and fairly with people, and have passed the same characteristics on to my children, both of which I proudly state work in the business.
The impact of dealing fairly, honestly, and compassionately with people became evident in April 2007, when our SERVPRO office and warehouse found itself under 4 feet of standing water. Computers ruined, trucks towed away for repair, and equipment destroyed. So many customers reached out, after seeing our disaster in the paper, and offered helping hands.
As I look to the future, I see this business continuing to help the community; from sponsoring fire prevention events, making donations by the truckload to needy people near and far, and just helping to clean up our little corner of the world, working to make it “Like it never even happened."
