CRA President on KFBK Talk radio

Leo Grover the President of CRA and the Owner of Pinnacle Emergency Management was interviewed by KFBK Talk Radio regarding the clean-up activities as a result of the gas line explosion in San Bruno, California. When asked about the availability of qualified restoration firms Leo made reference to the Cleaning and Restoration Association and recommended that those property owners that were searching for restoration companies go to CRA's website to locate member firms in their area.

As a result of Leo's reference to the CRA website, one of our members received a call from an investment company and was immediately called out to San Bruno for a major project.

We would like to thank Leo Grover for his continued leadership as the President of CRA.

Students Get Hands-On

CRA training instructor, Steve Marsh, taught an Advanced Upholstery course in Sacramento last month.

Students learned how to professionally clean a variety of fabrics, including silk, natural velvet, crushed velvet, Haitian cotton, rayon, chenille, raw silk, synthetic velvet, wool, linen, mohair, & chintz. With over 14 hours of hands-on practice, students had the opportunity to clean a greater variety of fabrics during this three-day class than most cleaners do in a lifetime.
