What Blackmon Mooring and BMS CAT does

Blackmon Mooring and BMS CAT is a privately held U.S. property restoration and disaster recovery services company headquartered at 5718 Airport Freeway, Haltom City, Texas. Founded in 1948 as a furniture upholstery repair shop in Fort Worth, the company evolved through a 1981 national expansion into one of America's longest-standing full-service restoration providers, operating 36+ company-owned (non-franchised) service locations with 24/7 emergency response. The company employs 501–1,000 people with an average tenure exceeding 10 years and has completed 287,000+ jobs over the last decade, including 100,000+ commercial engagements.

The service platform is organized around three core damage categories — water, fire/smoke, and mold — and extends across HVAC decontamination, drying/dehumidification, biohazard cleanup, large-loss disaster response, residential/commercial/multi-family construction, controlled demolitions, document and media recovery, and emergency board-up. BMS CAT serves six industry verticals (multifamily, hospitality, healthcare, education, manufacturing, government) and offers a Priority Disaster Response Program for pre-arranged commercial contracts. Named enterprise customers include Amazon, ShopRite (Hurricane Sandy recovery), Texas Christian University, Grand Bohemian Hotel, and Putnam City North High School.

Revenue is generated almost entirely through project-based, event-triggered service fees for restoration and reconstruction, typically settled via insurance claims or direct commercial billing; no subscription or recurring end-customer component is disclosed. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales with direct coordination to insurance carriers, supported by a 24/7 hotline, vendor/subcontractor portal, and active acquisitions outreach. No funding events, public listings, or institutional investor information are disclosed, and the company is led by CEO Tom Head and CFO Prentiss Gregorie.
