Jon Tatro Cleans Up His Past With Gratitude, Turning Recovery Into Clean And Pristine Solutions LLC

Conrad Fargo sits down with Jon Tatro owner of Clean and Pristine Solutions LLC, a local residential cleaning company focused on recurring weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, and quarterly home cleanings. Jon explains why he prefers the more personal, relationship-based nature of residential work, while also taking on daytime office cleaning when it fits and occasional move-out style jobs through the Fargo Housing Authority. The conversation traces how Jon’s attention to detail was sharpened during his prior career at Fabricators Unlimited, where he performed final inspection on stone countertops, and how an entrepreneur class connected to F5 helped turn his ambition into a real business.Jon opens up about addiction, incarceration, and what it means to be in recovery, including how gratitude, accountability, and ongoing self-work helped him rebuild. He discusses how the same intense focus that can fuel addiction can, in recovery, become fuel for building something positive for the community, which is why he supports the mission of F5. The episode also touches the local networking scene, including Tea Time Tuesday at the Daily Dose, Far More Networking, and the referral connection through Tiffany Savageo of Savvy Cleaning and the Savvy Food Truck. Jon shares practical operations too, from supplies at Costco and Menards to using Mrs. Meyer’s products, plus the systems behind the scenes, including scheduling software built for cleaning companies, checklists, weekly team meetings, QuickBooks, and a smoother client intake process. Music pick of the week is “The Search” by NF, tying the theme of struggle, momentum, and forward motion together.
