What Does It Cost to Open a Klappenberger & Son Franchise?

We Will Help You Build Your Own Successful Painting and Handyman Franchise​

Franchise Start-Up Costs

First of all, there are real costs to starting any business. The Klappenberger & Son franchise start-up costs are no exception. 

Indeed, comparing various franchise start-up costs that are similar can be a daunting task.  Furthermore, it is obviously a very important undertaking.   

While Klappenberger & Son is here to assist you with the process of obtaining funding, we will not personally finance any portion of the loan.

As a result, your investment in owning your own business is entirely up to you.  However, we will be happy to help you prepare the proper documentation to put in front of the loan officer.  Additionally, we will provide you with a detailed FDD.  This document includes financial performance to submit to your lender. As such, this will allow the institution to take a close look at the agreement between the franchisor and franchisee.

Comparing Franchise Start-Up Costs

The following table contains an overview of all franchise start-up costs:

Franchise Start-up Costs Include the Territory

A major benefit of owning a Klappenberger & Son franchise is that we offer you your choice from a wide array of expansive, available territories. Our territories are much larger than those of all other competitors.  Right now, the wealthiest territories are still available in your area. Truly, a fantastic advantage of getting a franchise early is that you can stake your claim where you want.

 

Why do we offer such large territories?

I’d rather have 200 successful and satisfied franchises than 400 franchises complaining that their territories are too small. 

I’ve heard stories of other franchises complaining that they are bidding against each other for large commercial jobs.  

Also, before franchising, I grew my company to 25 techs working during the peak seasons.  The area I worked in had about 450,000 people.  Thus, it would only be fair that my franchisees to have the same opportunity.
