Time to start handyman & home improvement franchise

Now the Summer is here this is the ideal time to start your professional handyman & home improvement franchise. Many homeowners at this time of year turn their minds to long warm nights and indoor and outdoor recreation and fun. Now is the time they plan to enjoy their property but that often means first considering home repairs and home improvements.

Survey shows 60% planning home improvements

At this time of year everyone seems to need a reliable company to help them with their necessary home repairs and home improvements. This year that trend seems to be even stronger. Many of our House Doctors franchisees are experiencing double digit growth over last year.

A recent survey by Zillow Digs shows 60 percent of homeowners are planning summer home improvement projects.
The survey also provides some insight into the demographic and household makeup of the homeowners and what kinds of projects they have in mind:

•Younger homeowners and homes with children are significantly more likely to be planning a home improvement this summer and perhaps as many as three or more home improvements.

•Homeowners plan to spend a median of $1,200 on summer home improvement projects.

•Homes with children as well as homeowners 54 and younger plan to spend one-third more ($1,500) compared with homes without children and those 55 and older ($1,000).

•Some of the most popular summer home improvement projects are outdoor spaces (40 percent) and bathrooms (17 percent).

Today less people are moving. More homeowners are choosing to stay in their homes and invest in home improvements. Many of our franchisees are now booked two and three weeks in advance such is the demand at this time of year. If you are considering a handyman or home improvement franchise now is the time to start your business.
