The kitchen remodeling franchise has been recession resilient and has always been able to flex with the ever-changing demand. It is continually growing and Kitchen Solvers fits a niche that allows us to provide simple upgrades all the way to a complete overhaul of the kitchen. This allows for fluidity in offerings and a consistent pulse on the latest trends and industry changes.
Kitchen Solvers offers homeowners quality, cost-effective options in three key categories of home remodeling services. Focused primarily on cabinet refacing in the kitchen, bathroom and other areas of the home, we can help homeowners achieve a “like-new” look for just a portion of the cost of complete cabinet replacement. If replacement is needed or desired, we are ready to take care of installation jobs too. Hybrid services that pair refacing of some existing cabinets and installation of some new cabinets is increasing in popularity. Beyond cabinets, Kitchen Solvers’ customers can enjoy the convenience of scheduling additional upgrades for their countertops, backsplashes, flooring, storage solutions and the wet areas of bathrooms. Our licensed tradesmen partners complete specialized tasks of plumbing, electrical, removal of walls, and stone fabrication. With all of these services offered by one provider, Kitchen Solvers takes away the homeowner’s stress of having to coordinate multiple contractors. The result? Happy clients who become repeat customers and generate referrals for our Franchise Owners. There is no shortage of customers for kitchen and bath remodeling; these segments generate $199B in remodeling services annually. And with over 40 years of kitchen and bath experience, Kitchen Solvers understands the industry and provides top-notch coaching to ensure franchisees start building trust with customers from day one. We are selective about our Franchise Partners, looking for a cultural fit for our organization as we truly are one big “family”. Our culture and support contributes to our above-industry-average franchise partner happiness as reported in the Franchise Business Review. With a variety of start-up and expansion choices, there is an option that’s right for you!
