Home/Home Services Franchises

Home Services Franchise Opportunities

Anyone can list the franchise fee — a number without context. Every home-services brand here shows what each figure is attached to: the investment range, unit count, filing years, and whether it discloses an Item 19. Where a brand filed in both 2025 and 2026, you can see exactly what changed.

Past the table

Every number above has a page it comes from.

A Workspace opens the brand’s actual FDD next to its Clearly Report — every figure cited to the Item and page, questions answered from this filing only, and both years side by side when the brand has filed twice.
