The company operates under the nationally recognized Rolling Suds brand and provides power washing, soft washing, roof cleaning, concrete cleaning, building washing, and commercial exterior cleaning services throughout the Chattanooga region.
Unlike many small service businesses, this operation has already made the substantial investments required to support future growth. The sale includes a nearly new commercial wash truck, dedicated sales vehicle, professional soft wash and pressure washing equipment, trained technicians, operating systems, established customer relationships, and the support resources of the nation’s largest power washing franchise system.
The Chattanooga market continues to experience strong residential growth, multifamily development, and commercial investment, creating ongoing demand for exterior cleaning services. The business has established relationships with property managers, commercial customers, HOAs, and residential clients throughout the territory.

Growth opportunities
The business is well positioned for future growth through expansion of commercial accounts, multifamily property services, property management relationships, HOA contracts, municipal opportunities, recurring maintenance programs, roof cleaning, and soft washing services.

The Chattanooga market continues to benefit from strong population growth, new residential construction, commercial development, and increasing demand for professional exterior cleaning services.

Reason for Selling
The owner originally planned to transition the business to his son, who has worked in the operation for the past year. He ultimately decided that business ownership was not the right fit for him and preferred to pursue employment rather than ownership. As a result, the owner has elected to sell the business and transition it to a new operator who can build on the foundation already in place.
Why I Love My Franchise
The franchise gave me a way to build a real business quickly without having to guess at branding, pricing, marketing, or operations. The systems work, the national brand opens doors, and customers recognize and trust the name. I love that this franchise lets you compete for big commercial and government jobs while still being flexible and scalable. It’s a professional operation, not a mom-and-pop hustle, and that’s what makes it powerful.
