Celebrating Our August 2025 New Franchise Training Graduates

PuroClean is proud to welcome our newest Franchise Owners to the family!

On Friday, August 1st, the latest class of New Franchise Training (NFT) officially graduated from the PuroClean Academy in Tamarac, FL, and we’re excited to see what’s ahead for each of them as they begin their journey into franchise ownership.

PuroClean is continuously growing, and we’ve added four new Franchise Owners across six new locations. Congratulations and welcome to the team!

This talented group brings energy, dedication, and diverse backgrounds to the PuroClean network. With new locations opening across California, Texas, and Arizona, our growth continues, and so does our mission to provide Relentless Customer Service and trusted restoration expertise across North America.

Please join us in congratulating the following NFT graduates:

Ashley Fraello

  • PuroClean of Huntington Park, CA
  • PuroClean of Pasadena, CA
  • PuroClean of Northeast Tucson, AZ

Ashley Fratello has acquired not one, but three locations, a remarkable step that speaks to her entrepreneurial drive and belief in the PuroClean brand. With a background in business operations and a passion for building strong, compassionate teams, Ashley is already leading with confidence across two states.

She is committed to creating high-performing teams that make a difference during moments of crisis. From mold and water mitigation in Southern California to biohazard and hoarding cleanup in Arizona, Ashley brings both care and capability to every job.

Jacob Moise

  • PuroClean of Menifee, CA

A second-generation restoration professional, Jacob Moise, is the proud new Franchise Owner of PuroClean of Menifee in Southern California. Jacob grew up in the industry alongside his brothers, Joseph and James, who also attended and graduated with him in this NFT class to support the family business. Together, the trio brings decades of hands-on experience to this new chapter.

Having already launched their own company in 2020, the Moise brothers were drawn to PuroClean’s strong franchise support and values-driven culture. Now, as the Franchise Owner, Jacob is leading the team in delivering trusted, compassionate service across Menifee, Lake Elsinore, Canyon Lake, and the surrounding Inland Empire communities—restoring not just property, but peace of mind.

PuroClean’s values of Servant Leadership and Extreme Ownership mirror Mike’s military mindset, making this a natural fit.
