Handyman and Restoration Franchises Always busy, no matter which way the economy goes!

The home repair and restoration market includes a limitless supply of exciting franchise and business opportunities! Home repair can mean everything from a small handyman or furniture repair business, to a nationally-known home restoration concept. When the economy is booming, homeowners have more money to spend on substantial restorations to their residences and vacation properties, or to buy and build new homes. When the economy is lean, people tend to stay put and make necessary repairs to maintain their most valuable possessions - their homes, property and vehicles.

All reputable repair-oriented franchises will assist the new franchisor with marketing and advertising to help you get established. Many offer ongoing company wide programs that capitalize on their brand name. Your success is highly dependent upon the reputation you're able to create for your new business, and the number of referrals you're able to generate. Home repair and restoration franchises appeal to the hands-on practitioner, as well as the experienced manager who prefers to supervise a team of professionals with skills in repair and restoration.

The companies featured here include relative newcomers and established, national brands, and all offer exciting entrepreneurial possibilities to the prospective business owner!
