MARSHALL, MN, February 04, 2026 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Sean Borth has been selected for inclusion in Marquis Who's Who. As in all Marquis Who's Who biographical volumes, individuals profiled are selected on the basis of current reference value. Factors such as position, noteworthy accomplishments, visibility, and prominence in a field are all taken into account during the selection process.

Mr. Borth has established a reputation for excellence as the owner and operator of a Surface Specialists Systems Inc. franchise, a role he has held since 2024. In this capacity, he conducts all field work independently, specializing in repairing cracks and structural damage to bathtubs, showers and countertops. His expertise in bathroom repairs and contractor services is widely recognized, with approximately 60 percent of his clientele consisting of warranty jobs for manufacturers and construction installations. The remaining 40 percent of his business serves private homeowners and residential properties, including apartment buildings.

Mr. Borth's ability to refinish tubs that appear beyond repair stands out as his most notable accomplishment; particularly, his before-and-after photographs consistently demonstrate dramatic transformations that exceed client expectations. Over two years in business, he has not received a single complaint, and much of his work is generated through word-of-mouth referrals. He is also exceptionally proud of funding the franchise independently without loans.

Operating across seven counties in Minnesota and 15 counties in South Dakota, Mr. Borth manages all aspects of the business alongside his wife, Nicole, who oversees incoming calls, office paperwork and financial records. Their partnership is integral to the company's success, with both relying on each other's strengths to navigate challenges such as budgeting and scheduling amid fluctuating income streams. When operational issues arise, they collaborate with the franchise for support, ensuring continued adherence to industry standards.

Prior to launching his franchise, Mr. Borth accrued valuable experience in warehousing and inventory management. From 2021 to 2024, he worked in inventory management at Reinhart Foods Ltd., where he developed organizational skills essential for running an independent business. Before this role, he spent three years at Runnings in warehouse operations, after gaining practical experience working full-time at a scrap yard before opening Surface Specialists of Marshall.

Mr. Borth's professional journey is underpinned by formal training and certification. He holds a contractor's license and earned a certificate in small business management in 2006. His commitment to professional development extends beyond technical skills as an active member of the Marshall Chamber of Commerce, which provides opportunities for networking and community engagement. His achievements have been recognized with several awards, including first place with his team at the Seven State Dart Tournament and the First Dollar Award from the Chamber of Commerce.

Central to Mr. Borth's success are his attention to detail and integrity—qualities that distinguish him from competitors operating in larger markets. He prioritizes building genuine relationships with clients, often receiving dinner invitations as a reflection of their appreciation for his personable approach. This dedication to customer satisfaction is matched by his perfectionism; he openly communicates high standards while acknowledging that continuous improvement is always possible.

Mr. Borth is committed to both the quality of his work and the people he serves. He emphasizes professionalism and high standards of service, applying these principles to himself and his team. By offering practical alternatives and cost-effective solutions, they help clients avoid unnecessary expenses, creating value for both customers and the business.

In his personal life, Mr. Borth values time spent with family and enjoys participating in dart league activities outside of work. He takes pride in involving his three children in the business; both have shown interest in his work, with one child recently creating a sign featuring the company logo for a class project. Looking ahead, Mr. Borth aspires to expand his business by securing an off-site warehouse or shop and establishing a brick-and-mortar location. He also hopes to acquire a dedicated work truck and welcomes the prospect of friends joining him professionally due to their trust in his character and work ethic.
