House Doctors President and CEO, Jim Hunter
The home improvement and remodeling industry seems to have more than it's fair share of unscrupulous, unreliable companies. Almost everyone has a horror story about contractors or handymen who at the least let them down by not turning up or in the worst case scenario did turn up to do bad quality work or even take their customers money without doing any work.

There are a lot of great home repair and remodeling companies out there who do good work but the reputation created by some of these less than professional companies has somewhat tarnished the handyman industry. So how do homeowners know which company to choose.That's the House Doctors franchise business opportunity.

Our aim is to create a national company that has professional franchisees who know the importance of great customer service. Their teams of technicians are scheduled to turn up on time in well marked vans. The handymen are uniformed, insured and bonded. They are prompt and precise producing good quality work and cleaning up after them. We follow up with customer support calls to make sure the home owner is happy with the work. We offer a guarantee.

Buy a franchise in a growing market. Home repairs and improvements are on the rise
 
The home improvement market including product sales is worth almost 300 billion in the U.S., so there are lots of people searching for reliable companies to help with their handyman, and home improvement needs. Most of these property owners face the same challenges of finding reliable contractors. Changes in demographics like 10,000 baby boomers a day turning 65 for the next 18 years are expected to see even more increases in demand for good professional companies we can trust to do home repairs and home improvements over the coming years. As the housing stock and the population ages we have a growing need to repair, maintain and modify the places where we live. Baby boomers aging in place modifying their homes to live in them longer is the fastest growth part of the remodeling industry today. Consider the changes that are also coming along due to increases in energy costs as we try to improve home energy efficiency and home performance. Building a relationship with a knowledgeable, reliable, trustworthy, company, who can repair, maintain, upgrade and enhance your property has probably become more important now than at any other time in our history.That's the size of the House Doctors franchise business opportunity.
