About bluefrog Plumbing + Drain

- Recession resistant/essential business - High margins - We help find a master plumber - AUV of $918,708 for a single territory

Plumbing might be the best kept secret in the home services industry. The industry is booming, with $110 billion in annual revenues, and the fact that plumbing is a need, not a want, for every homeowner makes plumbing entirely recession-resistant. For far too long, plumbing has been the butt of lame jokes (pun intended!) and stereotypes, and overlooked by entrepreneurs who are interested in the home services space. It might surprise you that plumbing is high-margin, highly sophisticated business to own. It can also be incredibly rewarding, both personally and financially. Founded in 2014, bluefrog™ is led by a passionate executive team with decades of industry specific experience in growing franchise systems and helping entrepreneurs live their dreams of owning a successful business. bluefrog™ is also the sister company of one of the fastest growing restoration company's in the nation, Restoration 1.

Local Handyman Group

Home Improvement/Maintenance Services, Repair & Restoration

$90K - $125K

Local Handyman presents a powerful franchise opportunity built for those who want to scale a real business—not just own a job. Under the leadership of Colin Sprake and Nathan Neels, Local Handyman is expanding rapidly across the U.S. with a robust support system that includes hands-on training, high-converting marketing strategies, and easy-to-use operational systems. We call our franchisees “Success Partners” because we are deeply invested in their growth—and we’re building a community of serious entrepreneurs who want to scale into multiple territories or even entire cities. This franchise is rooted in Colin Sprake’s decades of experience in business building, mergers, and acquisitions. If you Google him, you'll find a track record of launching, scaling, and advising highly successful companies. His visionary approach, especially around leveraging technology and systems to drive business value, is a key reason candidates choose Local Handyman. This is a brand backed by business acumen, not just a toolkit of trade skills. Our model is lean—there are no storefronts, no showroom overhead—and it’s built to scale. Each Success Partner typically starts with one handyman and one van per territory, with the goal of growing to four vans and four handymen over a 12-month period, or even more depending on market demand in that specific area. This staged growth approach ensures manageable startup costs while creating a clear path to healthy margins and strong, recurring revenue. What sets us apart even further is our royalty structure: it starts at 10% and drops to 6% as revenue grows—and that’s all-in. There’s no hidden national marketing fee, no call center fee, no nickel-and-diming. Just one clean number, aligned with your success. Local Handyman is also at the forefront of innovation. We're proactively integrating AI and AI agents across our systems to streamline operations, reduce overhead, and enhance customer experience. From intelligent lead nurturing to backend automation, we are committed to being a future-ready, tech-enabled brand that gives franchisees every competitive edge possible.
