Buy a The Grout Medic Franchise

The Grout Medic is a mobile home services franchise specializing in tile and grout cleaning, restoration, and repair. Founded in 1997 and franchising since 2001, the brand serves residential and commercial customers through locally owned and operated territories across the United States. Services include grout cleaning, regrouting, recaulking, sealing, color sealing, tile repair, and water damage restoration.

The brand’s proprietary Advanced Steam Vapor Technology uses low-pressure, high-temperature steam to clean and restore tiled surfaces without harsh chemicals, completing most projects in a single day. The model is home-based and mobile, with no retail location required; franchisees operate from a service vehicle and scale by adding trucks and technicians.

The Grout Medic is part of Premium Service Brands (PSB), a multi-brand home services franchisor with more than 1,100 locations across North America. PSB’s portfolio also includes Maid Right, 360 Painting, House Doctors, and RooterMan, giving franchisees access to a broader support infrastructure and operational resources.

The Grout Medic – Additional  Information

  1. Training & Support

    New franchise owners complete the Owner's Experience Program (OXP), a three-week course combining two virtual weeks with one live classroom week at PSB's corporate office in Charlottesville, Virginia. Ongoing support covers operations, marketing, equipment, and staff management. Franchisees receive one-on-one coaching and access to a national contact center for customer inquiries and scheduling, alongside a proprietary software platform for business management. Resale buyers should confirm what OXP access and system onboarding the franchisor provides when ownership changes.

  2. Ideal Owner

    The Grout Medic suits operators comfortable managing a small team of field technicians and building local business through service quality and referrals. No tile or construction background is required; the franchisor provides full technical training. The ideal owner is sales-oriented and relationship-focused, able to market locally, manage scheduling, and maintain consistent service standards. A process-driven approach helps with quality control across multiple jobs and technicians. The model fits hands-on local operators who prefer a mobile, lower-overhead trade business.

  3. Recognition & Awards

    The Grout Medic has built local recognition through a high rate of customer retention, with more than 65% of revenue coming from repeat clients and referrals. The brand's services are listed on platforms including HomeAdvisor and Angi, where customer reviews support local visibility and trust. As part of Premium Service Brands, The Grout Medic operates within a home services network that has received industry recognition for franchisee growth and support. For resale buyers, brand-level standing should be considered alongside the specific territory's local reviews, referral sources, and community reputation.

  4. Industry / Market

    The US home services market exceeded $657 billion in total addressable spend, with home maintenance services accounting for more than $106 billion of that, according to Angi. Tile and grout restoration sits within this maintenance segment, where homeowners choose professional restoration over full tile replacement. Demand tracks closely with housing stock age and home improvement spending, both of which remain elevated across major US markets. For resale buyers, the repeat-client base and referral network of a specific territory are key indicators of sustainable local demand.
