Our Founder's Story

 
Welcome to Rob’s Rescue - we’re here to save the day!

Now, we firmly believe transparency is the key to victory - you can see right through our clear carpet cleaning solution, why shouldn’t you be able to read through our history? Take a look below and see exactly why folks around the country adore Rob’s Rescue - and why you will, too.

From Humble Beginnings to Nationwide Prestige

In the beginning, there was Rob. Well, there was Rob and a whole bunch of carpet stains that lacked a sworn enemy. After Rob graduated from the University of Kentucky, he began working in a chemical factory that made carpet cleaners for a family-owned business here in Ohio. That particular company started in 1937, but gave the reins to Rob where he learned everything there is to know about production, sales, formulas, a multitude of solutions and chemical reactions.

However, in 1981, he handed off that business in pursuit of his own dream. To save the world from stains and strife. To create the original “Rob’s Rescue!”

Dependable & In-Demand: How We Built Our Reputation

Rob took his one-man show to the road and started production for a carpet cleaning solution that would eventually WOW homeowners, shop owners and custodial caretakers alike. Across the country, folks were begging for these bottles and, let’s just say, they couldn’t make this stuff fast enough! In fact, one of the most popular carpet cleaning companies in the game today started with 40 branches and, after the perfection of this solution, started pushing 300 branches nationwide.

We’re not saying we’re responsible for that stellar surge in growth - but we like to believe we helped the cause!

Trusted Among Cleaning Professionals.

Believe it or not, the original Rob’s Rescue solution wasn’t even called “Rob’s Rescue.” It was called “a great product” by professional carpet cleaners everywhere and then white labeled by those companies to be used and sold as their own. Top athletic brands and retailers across the US picked this stuff up. The largest janitorial staff in the Midwest had more than 700 custodial professionals calling on Rob’s Rescue to help them out on a daily basis.

Since then, Rob’s Rescue has gained self-awareness in the form of new branding! Donning the name of its founder, Rob’s Rescue is now its very own standalone product for all to enjoy. After all, retail store owners and independent carpet cleaners shouldn’t get to have ALL the fun!

Simple, Effective, Low-Key (OR From One Bob to Another): Why Top Restaurants Choose Rob’s Rescue

One of the largest national chain restaurants (that also started here in Ohio) has adopted Rob’s Rescue as its go-to stain remover. Why? Instead of having to clear out all the tables in the establishment, clean all the carpet throughout the store and make a big ordeal out of the whole thing, Rob’s Rescue makes it so team members can quickly clean up a cosmetic blemish and move on with their day.

In a restaurant setting, Rob’s Rescue is perfect for swiftly picking up a stain from spilled spaghetti, a greasy impression from garlic bread or, the worst sin of them all, a mess made from a mistreated Merlot.
