Surfaceworks started in 1985 with one employee, Diane Savarese, the current president. 

Diane was a struggling photographer who started cleaning houses as a means to earn enough money to support her art. After a short six months of cleaning houses by herself, Diane had more work than she could handle and brought on one employee to help her. 10 years ago, Lisa Shaw joined Diane, creating a partnership that has strengthened the company.

25 years later, Surfaceworks of Watertown and Concord has more than 50 employees all committed to the same attention to detail and personal customer care as the founder.

Diane continues her photography and is grateful to be able to not only support her art work, but has been able to support her familiy and grow within her community.
