Home Service Franchises That People Are Loving!

Here in the FastLane, we love to shed spotlights on our valued brand partners and we felt it was time to shine some light on the home improvement brands in our portfolio. As a sub-category of industries, we have more home services franchisors than any other business sector. But that’s not surprising when you consider how this franchising sector has performed for the past few years. Home improvement and service franchises began to skyrocket during the pandemic, when consumer demand for remodeling first began to tick upwards. To date, that interest has experienced little, if any, letup.  

In their 2024 Franchising Economic Impact Report, which predicts growth by different industries, the International Franchise Association (IFA) said: 

“In 2024, commercial and residential services are poised to reach around 81,000 establishments, reflecting a growth rate of 2%. Employment within the industry is projected to increase by a corresponding 2% to 315,000 jobs. The output in the sector is expected to grow faster than in 2023, driven by improvements in the housing market, with a growth rate of 4.6% anticipated in 2024, reaching a total of $59.8 billion.” 

The IFA’s assessment continues with remarks on why the home improvement sector continues to outperform expectations: 

“Looking ahead to 2024, franchise business owners in this industry are embracing new technologies to improve customer experience. This may include collaborating with AI-powered platforms to streamline service processes and implementing search engine optimization strategies to enhance marketing approaches.” 

With such a tremendous endorsement from the IFA, check these top home service franchise opportunities below: out our home improvement brands below! 

Bar-B-Clean 

Did you know that 86% of U.S. households own a backyard grill – and 99% of them have been used within the last calendar year? Did you also know that there is no clear marketplace leader for grill cleaning and maintenance? Enter Bar-B-Clean, an all-mobile franchise opportunity that cleans, repairs, and services residential grills along with B2C customers think hotels, AIRbnbs, apartment complexes and more – keeping them in peak hygienic condition. The grill cleaning business continues to “heat up,” as at last check, Bar-B-Clean has established units in more than 50 territories across the U.S. and climbing. 

The Brothers The Just Do Gutters 

A family-owned business, The Brothers That Just Do Gutters was founded in 1999 and quickly found success in a highly fragmented marketplace for gutter installation, cleaning, repair, and maintenance. They began franchising the concept in 2015 as a first-to-market contractor service with a business model that focuses squarely on providing a five-star customer experience. The Brothers That Just Do Gutters has clearly hit on something special, as the brand has surpassed over 300 territories open and operating from coast-to-coast. 

Bloomin’ Blinds 

Bloomin’ Blinds is the only franchise brand that is truly trained, prepared, and excited about the ongoing maintenance of interior blinds. Designed to be the perfect fit for any first-time business owner, it’s a simple, home-service, mobile-based franchise opportunity with zero inventory required. There’s also magic in the brand’s two distinct revenue streams – first, the selling and installing of a wide range of interior window coverings and the second comes from the onsite repair service for existing window coverings. At last check, Bloomin’ Blinds has attracted over 60+ franchise owners, representing more than 150 territories across the U.S. 

Cabinet IQ 

Cabinet IQ is the franchising industry’s premier provider of cabinet and countertop design and installation services for residential kitchens and bathrooms.

For this brand, the good news keeps rolling in, as Cabinet IQ just debuted their exclusive custom kitchen cabinet collection, featuring innovative new designs and premium building materials. 

Five Star Bath Solutions 

Five Star Bath Solutions, one of the fastest-growing bath remodeling franchises, has become the most trusted name in bath remodeling and boasts an amazing 59% closing rate for new customer projects. Founded in Canada in 1996, the brand expanded into the U.S. market by franchising their concept back in 2008. There’s no doubt Five Star Bath Solutions is on the fast track to marketplace success, having opened 150+ territories in just the past two years alone! 

Zoom Drain 

Specializing in drain repairs, cleaning, inspections, septic tank services, pump replacements, and the sale of drain care products, Zoom Drain has been a longtime member of the Franchise FastLane portfolio. The brand’s business model is both simple and straightforward, focusing on everything that exists "below the drain." Zoom Drain can deploy expertly trained wastewater specialists for emergencies, as well as pre-planned maintenance servicing for both drain and sewer-related work.
