Buy a RestoPros Franchise

RestoPros is a home-based restoration and remediation franchise serving residential and commercial property owners affected by water, fire, smoke, mold, and storm damage. Launched in 2018 in North Carolina and franchising since 2020, the brand has grown to over 140 locations across 38 states through a referral-driven model that positions franchisees to win jobs ahead of insurance-led competitors.

The business model centers on B2B referral partnerships with the trade professionals who are typically first on scene at a property damage event: plumbers, contractors, and property managers. Franchisees get the call to begin remediation before the homeowner has even contacted their insurer, a positioning approach that gives RestoPros technicians an earlier entry point than the large national restoration companies that depend on insurance referrals.

Territories are sized to cover populations of 250,000 to 500,000. The franchise operates from a home base with a lean headcount; an equipment rental model reduces the capital required to build operational capacity as unit volume scales.

Why buy a RestoPros Franchise?

Buying a RestoPros franchise means entering a services category where demand is event-driven: burst pipes, storms, mold growth, and fire damage happen independently of economic cycles. The B2B referral model keeps customer acquisition costs low by building relationships with contractors, plumbers, and property managers who are first contacted when damage occurs, rather than relying on consumer advertising.

The home-based model keeps overhead low, and an equipment rental approach gives franchisees a path to scale without a large owned-equipment fleet. Franchisor-negotiated vendor discounts support unit profitability, and the executive management model can suit operators who prefer to manage by systems and staff.

RestoPros – Additional  Information

  1. Training & Support

    RestoPros trains incoming franchisees across three phases: administrative, operational, technical, and sales and marketing skills, with on-the-job training and on-site guidance. Ongoing support covers daily operations, product ordering, and customer service, alongside local and regional marketing materials and strategies. Negotiated vendor discounts are available across the franchisee network, and proprietary technology supports field operations. Buyers of an existing RestoPros unit should confirm what transfer training and technology system access are available to incoming ownership.

  2. Ideal Owner

    The strongest fit for a RestoPros franchise is a sales-oriented operator comfortable building B2B relationships with plumbers, contractors, and property managers, the trade professionals who generate most referral work. Strong interpersonal skills and scheduling discipline matter more than industry experience, though a basic understanding of restoration processes is helpful. Day-to-day the owner coordinates field teams, oversees job scheduling, and manages customer relationships through high-stress situations. The model suits an executive management style with the right local team in place.

  3. Recognition & Awards

    RestoPros has built recognition through customer-facing service quality across its growing network of franchisee locations in 38 states. Franzy's franchise rating platform reports a 4.92 average customer review score across the network, indicating consistent delivery. The brand competes on local trust and referral relationships rather than on advertising-driven awareness, which means its reputation is built unit by unit. For resale buyers, local review standing, referral source depth, and community visibility in the specific territory are the most relevant credibility signals to assess.

  4. Industry / Market

    The US damage restoration services industry generates around $7.1 billion in annual revenue (IBISWorld) and is growing at an estimated CAGR of 4.5%, driven by climate-related weather events, aging housing stock, and wider awareness of mold and water damage risks. Water damage remediation is the largest revenue driver in the category. The services are largely non-discretionary: property owners need remediation when damage occurs, regardless of economic conditions. For resale buyers, territory geography and proximity to high-volume referral sources are key factors in assessing unit revenue potential.
