Overview
Every day, nationwide, hundreds of thousands aspiring entrepreneurs walk into their jobs wishing for something better. A way to reclaim control of their lives, to find more flexibility in the way they make a living. A way to ensure a bright and colorful future for themselves and their families long into retirement. What many haven’t yet realized is that the solution is literally all around them, in virtually every room they enter.
In over ten years, the Five Star Painting franchise opportunity has empowered nearly 200 business owners to paint their future with a different brush. With our established model and uncompromising commitment to quality, we put the power in their hands to secure the time, freedom and possibilities that have been missing from their lives. The consensus among Five Star Painting franchise owners? They wish they’d have jumped into this opportunity years ago. Nothing like a fresh coat of paint to change your perspective.
It wasn’t long before our two founders – a pair of friends who painted to pay their way through college – realized they’d stumbled on a winning mixture. Within just five years of our 2004 founding, Five Star Painting started franchising and began completely disrupting the U.S. painting service industry. Now, after a 2015 acquisition by Neighborly, we’re well on our way to achieving our goal to become North America’s leading provider of painting services, transforming the lives of customers and franchise owners alike through quality and color.
Why Choose Us?
One of the best parts of the business? You don’t need any employees to start. That’s because our system is designed to rely on subcontractors – professional painters who own their own businesses and are looking for a steady stream of work for themselves and their crews. For our owners, this means they don’t initially have to spend time and resources on hiring, training or team management. Plus, much like the homeowners we serve get to be choosy about the colors they want for their bathroom or back deck, franchise owners have more choice in who they send to fulfill jobs.
That said, quality and consistency are always our focus. Even with the use of remote crews, our reputation for high-quality service and beautiful finishes shines through. Due to carefully communicated expectations, the subcontractors our franchise owners hire are encouraged to look and act professional, delivering the quality product and experience our customers demand for their home. It all amounts to a growing base of customers willing to pay a premium price for the confidence they want when hiring a service team to spruce up their living space.
