The dedicated team at National Guardian takes great pride in running a family business based firmly on the principles of providing superior service, exceeding customer expectations, and instituting a new gold standard of safety in the fire protection industry.
Steven has been a maverick in this niche trade since the mid 1970’s and continues to develop his methods using cutting-edge technology and innovative ideas. National Guardian was founded upon Steven’s desire to provide superior and affordable fire protection to the food service industry.
Continually evolving National Guardian into a progressive company, Steven studied environmental science at Stanford University so that he could implement environmentally sound alternatives into his company’s practices. His partnership with EarthShare is a commitment to the education and preservation of our precious planet. National Guardian uses specially formulated biodegradable degreasers, food safe cleaning products, and machines that have zero to the lowest carbon dioxide output on the market. National Guardian also has the cleanest containment systems, bar none. Steven has forged National Guardian with green initiatives without sacrificing quality.
Quality is a number one priority at National Guardian. Steven has set the bar when it comes to industry standards in many ways. Steven founded a program to create transparency using before and after photos of all targeted areas of kitchen exhaust systems, which is now the industry standard. After every job is complete, a visible record exhibits National Guardian’s commitment to a flawless performance.
Maximum performance is only achieved by innovation and National Guardian has attained this title time and time again. Steven, along with a team of engineers, pioneered the very first spinners in duct cleaning. Steven had observed that many companies were either spraying dry chemicals on top of the grease or they were sending employees down into the ducts because they could not reach ducts that were in high-rise buildings. Other companies were cleaning only as far as they could reach by hand. By designing rotating spinners that can be lowered into elaborate duct systems, our teams could now thoroughly clean “top to bottom” safely and extensively.
With a reputation for exceptional service, National Guardian has maintained long-standing relationships with our clients over the many years National Guardian has done exactly that; been a guardian in fire protection."
