Seasonal slowdowns don’t have to stop your success. Discover how Klappenberger & Son franchisees plan ahead, market smarter, and stay profitable all year long.
With a total population of over 909,000 people, a franchise in Prince Georges County will have plenty of opportunities.
Also, located just east of Washington DC, many federal employees live in Prince Georges County. This makes a franchise in Prince Georges County less susceptible to a recession.
Did I mention all the Federal Government Agencies in PG County?
A painting and handyman franchise in Prince Georges County could keep many painters busy in just one of these agencies.
A Klappenberger & Son Painting and handyman franchise in Prince George County has opportunities that few other counties in the country offer.
First, there is the Federal Government sector with budgets that never shrink and projects that never end.
Secondly, the University of MD has been attracting more tech companies such as IonQ, making quantum computers right here in Prince George county.
Finally, the residential market is vibrant and healthy in the recession-resistant industry. So whether you live in Clinton or College Park, the opportunity to grow a substantial painting and handyman business as a Klappenberger & Son franchise is possible.
If you are looking to franchise in Prince Georges County, there are many reasons to choose a franchise that provides both painting and handyman services.
Firstly, the painting industry is a $31 billion industry. In addition, the handyman franchise industry is $4.1 billion per year. Combining the two makes you a convenient one-stop shop.
Secondly, people need our services regardless of the economy. For example, if home sales are slow, people are staying put and fixing up. If it is a seller market, people are buying and making changes.
You don’t need to convince someone to paint or maintain their property. Look around. Just about every structure in your territory is painted. And there will be things that break down and need to be fixed or replaced.
The painting and handyman industry is so unreliable that customers will create a loyal customer base if you show up and do a good job. That is not the same for other industries such as restaurants. For example, I love a good cheeseburger. However, I’ll eat a cheeseburger from Five Guys, Wendy’s, Steak ‘n Shake, and just about any sports bar. In short, I am not loyal to just one cheeseburger joint.
On the flip side, no pun intended, the painting and handyman relationship is different. Happy customers want to use the same contractor again and again. This loyalty creates a great customer base. Over 74% of our customers are repeat customers or referrals.
Who has the best franchise? I can answer in two words -no one. Your needs, goals, and desires determine which franchise is the best for you. Not the franchise.
Buying a franchise is like buying a car. Each car has its unique features and costs. Therefore, a good franchisor should NOT try to sell you their franchise but instead asking questions about you to see if your needs fit their franchise model.
Here are a few questions we ask our candidates to determine if they are a good fit for our franchise model.
First, do you want a brick-and-mortar store or an at-home business?
Secondly, are you looking for a scalable franchise or a more part-time business?
Thirdly, are you looking for something to be hands-on or something the generates a more passive income?
What income are you looking to derive from whichever franchise purchase?
How soon do you need the cash flow from the franchise?
Have you talked to anyone in the franchise industry that interests you?
Most importantly, how much capital do you have to invest?

We will ask and answer the questions above and have a plain and frank discussion.
Our policy is not to sell you but to guide you and see if our franchise works for both of us.
We respect your privacy at all times.
