Due to the early establishment of the Colorado Springs branch of First General Services, neither percentages of revenue nor large fees are due to the home office as part of the arrangement between First General Services of Colorado Springs Inc. and the home office known as First General Services in Ft. Lauderdale, FL. The Colorado Springs branch was awarded to Ben Modrell and Donald Smith in 1981 as principals of an existing company known as Foremost Construction. Foremost Construction ceased to do business after the 1986 tax law change related to the commercial building industry. Ben Modrell and Donald Smith carried forward as principals of First General Services only. The construction license held by the company is the highest construction license available.

Since 1992, the company has grown through three locations to currently reside at 1625 Tuskegee Place, Suite 160, Colorado Springs, Colorado 80915. The company has grown from two principals and one secretary over-seeing subcontractors to a fifteen-person company plus subcontractors since 1992. Having an unlimited license allows First General Services to perform these services in any building in El Paso County. We are also licensed in several other counties.

In the fall of 2002, Donald Smith and Scott D. Smith decided to create a separate cleaning company from First General Services. The name of the new company is Cleanmaster Services. This company will operate primarily as a residential cleaning and restoration company focusing on fire and water restorations, carpet and upholstery cleaning and 24-hour emergency services related to fire and water emergencies.

Current management is in growth mode for First General Services and all of its entities. Issues related to company growth, employee relations, company performance and responsibility levels to employees and to the community are first and foremost in the forward going decision-making processes of this management team.
