In addition, its record was examined for complaints, proper licensing and adequate insurance.Customer satisfaction has always been important for us, but we felt it was important to have an independent company evaluate our service and give us a report card on just how we are doing, said Randy Rovang, Chem-Dry owner.Less than half of all companies that apply for certification achieve the ValueStar symbol, according to a ValueStar news release."
