About Our Guest
After seven years in law enforcement and serving in the military, Laura Spaulding identified a need for crime scene cleaning while she was working a double homicide. A family asked her Who is going to clean this up. So with a $15,000 loan, Spaulding Decon was born. What began as a one woman show today stands as a franchise with over 55 locations nationwide.
