1-800-STRIPER logo

1-800-STRIPER

Home Improvement/Maintenance Services

$250K - $322K

Striping falls in line with paving, sealcoating, repairing, and other pavement services, but stands alone. Striping is typically the one service not provided by typical paving companies. These companies, as well as individual business customers, will seek out striping specialists like 1-800-STRIPER® to add the finishing touches to their projects. What’s more, we often see other striping companies move on from parking lots to work exclusively on roadways -- leaving a market gap for B2B striping services to be filled by our franchise owners. We don’t just draw lines. There’s an art to it, a skill. The services we offer go way beyond paint. We are building relationships in our communities by providing a quality service. Think of all the parking lots, structures, and garages you see each day driving around your town or city. Businesses, medical facilities, schools, churches, and more depend on safe, effective traffic flow. Professional stripers understand the need for a well-thought-out design to keep motorists and pedestrians moving and parking efficiently.

180 Water

Home Improvement/Maintenance Services

$200K - $275K

180 Water is a first-of-its-kind franchise opportunity focused on water well pump servicing—a vital but underserved industry across much of the country—and is now expanding into water conditioning. Homeowners who rely on wells often face long wait times, inflated pricing, or a total lack of service when their pumps fail or their water quality drops. 180 Water fills that gap by offering fast, reliable, and honest well pump repair, replacement, and soon, water treatment solutions through a locally owned, franchise-driven model. We combine essential home services with a recession-resistant niche and growing customer demand, especially in rural and underserved suburban areas. Our business model is designed to be simple, scalable, and profitable. Franchisees begin as owner-operators with a fully equipped service truck, top-tier tools, and no need for a storefront. We provide two weeks of hands-on training, and ongoing support through our corporate team. With our national branding, automated scheduling software, integrated CRM, and marketing support, franchisees can focus on serving customers and growing their territory. The model is ideal for motivated individuals looking for a blue-collar business with white-collar earning potential, all while providing a critical service to their community.
