As the home services and plumbing repair industries continue to grow, Plumbing Paramedics brings an on-demand model to the industry, establishing itself as a go-to brand for urgent plumbing needs. Now, with the backing of Threshold Brands, Plumbing Paramedics is set to expand even further.
Plumbing Paramedics, the plumbing services franchise, joined the Threshold Brands family with a decade of successful operations in 2021. With the home services market on an uptick and plenty of open territories, Plumbing Paramedics is looking toward remarkable growth within the next year.
“We are in an excellent position for growth,” said Ryan Carpenter, Plumbing Paramedics’ brand president. “We have a proven system and a wealth of valuable white space, and now, with Threshold Brands behind us, we have a level of resources most franchises could only dream of.”
Plumbing Paramedics originated in 2011, existing as a family business with a one-van team. As the brand has grown, the family business model continues to foster connection between both franchisees and corporate as well as franchisees and their clients. In offering uniquely strong connections to clients, the Plumbing Paramedics culture aids franchisees in securing repeat customers and brand loyalty.
Because Plumbing Paramedics exists under the Threshold Brands umbrella, franchisees and customers alike are able to reap the benefits of a family-run style business with extensive experience, connections and support.
One of the key resources that Plumbing Paramedics franchisees have access to is this unique balance of family values and large organization support. Plumbing Paramedics prides itself on developing a streamlined model that thoroughly supports franchisees, whether or not they have worked in plumbing or small business before. Part of this comprehensive model is a 170-page manual that details every facet of the brand’s operations.
“Most small businesses don’t have anything like that,” Carpenter said. “It really allows our franchisees to hit the ground running and quickly make a return on their investment.”
The total investment necessary to begin operation of a Plumbing Paramedics franchise business ranges from $102,250 to $205,800, including a $40,000 fee that must be paid to the franchisor. The investment gives new franchise owners access to everything they need to run a successful Plumbing Paramedics territory including comprehensive, hands-on training, the technology and equipment necessary to launch, and marketing and advertising support.
In 2021, the plumbing industry saw approximately $124 billion in sales, and the demand is expected to grow. With more and more people staying home for remote and hybrid work schedules, many homeowners are prioritizing repairs and renovations in their space. Some families are opting for “do it yourself” projects rather than facing the booming real estate market, so the demand for home improvement services is high. And, with bathroom-to-basement support, franchisees will have the skills and resources necessary to address a wide range of service needs within their territories.
While the demand for these markets is steadily increasing, potential investors should rest assured that even if this demand slows, a Plumbing Paramedics franchise is less likely to be impacted than franchises in other industries. Because functioning plumbing is such a necessity to a home, clients are far less likely to wait for additional disposable income to reach out to a plumbing professional for help, making this a pandemic and recession-resistant opportunity.
Plumbing Paramedics seeks potential franchise owners with experience in the marketing, sales and/or plumbing fields. Owners who are driven to achieve their dreams and interested in supporting their communities often have what it takes to succeed as a franchisee.
The brand is also excited to speak with current business owners interested in conversion opportunities.
With plans to add a dozen franchise markets by the end of 2022, Plumbing Paramedics is looking to expand in multiple locations nationwide. This includes Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, Kentucky, Illinois, Minnesota and Wisconsin.
The total investment necessary to begin operation of a Plumbing Paramedics location ranges from $102,250 to $205,800. For conversion opportunities, business owners can expect an estimated initial investment range of $20,250 to $80,800. For more information, visit: https://www.theplumbingparamedicsfranchise.com/
