Show Masons are making Davis Co. a cleaner place to live By JENNIFER PETERSON Staff Writer Two Bountiful residents are making mak-ing Davis County a cleaner place to live. 0 Julie and Dennis Mason of Bountiful Boun-tiful recently purchased the first American Housekeeping franchise offered in Utah. The parent com pany, based in Reno, Nev., has done extremely well, said co-owner Bill Tabar. The Masons opened their business busi-ness on Nov. 1 upon completion of a two-week long intensive training session which focused on operations opera-tions and business development. "We're happy to have the opportunity oppor-tunity to serve our community and our county," Mr. Mason said. American Housekeeping, Mr. Mason said, is the first purely professional pro-fessional residential cleaning service ser-vice available in Davis County. According to American Housekeeping officials, the housekeeping business has nearly tripled in size since 1985. They attribute at-tribute this growth to a growing number of women entering the workplace leaving them little time to clean house. Currently, the Bountiful Boun-tiful business is served by three maids who work as a team. While the company is only serving Bountiful Boun-tiful residences, it will soon offer service in Farmington, Kaysville and Layton as well. "We've built a fairly significant clientele so far," Mason said. The Masons hope to have six teams on staff by the end of 1992. , v i fc n ii inn ii i iiiiiiiMiin 1 1 ii mi II iii 'Miiiiiiiii m- n a mm mmm Julie and Dennis Mason of Bountiful recently purchased the first American Housekeeping franchise offered in Utah.
