Known as the “Paramedics of Property Damage®,” PuroClean Franchise Owners understand that the restoration industry is resistant to recessions and that it also continues to keep growing year after year.
You may ask, “What do I need to start a restoration business?” Different factors play into choosing the right franchise and finding the balance between the initial investment, market demand, brand reputation, and franchise support; all critical to running a profitable business. Understanding this balance is why so many PuroClean Franchise Owners decided to get into the industry over the last two decades, and why there will be plenty of opportunities to get into remediation and restoration for decades to come.
How to Start a Restoration Company
Once you’ve done your research and are ready to become your own boss, PuroClean has streamlined the onboarding and training process with the goal to ensure your new restoration company is up and running, and ready to start taking on customers at a pace that works for you and your family. The initial investment to starting a restoration business with PuroClean ranges between $225,000 and $245,000, as every candidate’s situation is different. PuroClean works with all potential Franchise Owners to determine how to best help them become a community hero.
What’s needed for your particular remediation and restoration business should also reflect the communities you wish to serve. For example, if your territory is more prone to fire, water, or mold issues, make sure your staff is well-trained in these types of remediation services. When disaster strikes, it’s your job to help your neighbors put their homes – and their lives – back together.
What Is the Market Demand for a Restoration Company?
According to IBIS World, the market size for the U.S. restoration industry is projected to continue to grow over the next five years. Industry revenue reached $7.1 billion in 2024. When considering market demand, there are many key factors to think about, including the environmental risks associated with a changing climate.
For example, forest fires continue to grow across the United States. According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), 22 wildfires caused more than $1 billion in damages (1980-2023), and 18 of those fires occurred in the last 20 years. Additionally, with more than 40% of American citizens living in coastal cities, the EPA estimates more than $1 trillion of property and structures are at risk of flooding.
Cleaning up after natural disasters is only one part of the restoration industry market. The crime scene cleanup business has proven to be a steady income stream for companies that focus on biohazards. PuroClean offers advanced training to biohazard technicians, providing specialization in everything from blood and chemical spill cleanup to other remediation of other contaminants left over at crime scenes.
