Become a Restoration Business Owner Today
How Your Restoration Business Can Make a Difference
Becoming a restoration business owner isn’t just about establishing a new enterprise—it’s about creating a beacon of hope and support for communities in need. At 1-800 WATER DAMAGE, we understand that the heart of a restoration business lies not only in repairing structures, but also in rebuilding lives and supporting growth at every level.
Training for Excellence
The essence of our approach at 1-800 WATER DAMAGE is encapsulated in our comprehensive training platform, unparalleled in the restoration industry. Many of our franchise owners began their journey with little to no experience in the field. Recognizing this, we’ve established a state-of-the-art training facility in Ann Arbor, Michigan, to transform novices into experts. From technology-enhanced classrooms to an on-site flood house for hands-on experience, we equip our franchisees with the knowledge and tools to excel. However, understanding the nuances of mold remediation and water damage spotting is just the beginning. We place equal emphasis on business development, teaching everything from creating effective business plans to fostering a culture of advancement and community engagement.
“We remain mindful that our franchisees forsake their careers to chase the dream of business ownership,” says Tim Fagan, President of 1-800 WATER DAMAGE. “That’s why we’ve invested in the industry’s premier training platform and are steadfast in equipping our franchisees with the essential tools and resources for business success. In nurturing their growth, we cultivate entrepreneurs who deliver vital services that property owners urgently require. It’s a win-win-win, for us, our franchise owners, and the communities they serve.”
Building Communities
Owning a restoration business through 1-800 WATER DAMAGE means more than being a service provider, it means becoming a vital part of your community’s resilience strategy. Our franchise owners deliver prompt, top-quality property restoration services, distinguishing themselves through dedication and the support of a robust corporate structure. This commitment ensures that when disaster strikes, communities don’t just see us as a service, but as a trusted partner in recovery.
“The demand for our services becomes readily apparent as soon as you begin operating,” says Fagan. “If you seek a business that allows hands-on work, leadership development, relationship building, and meaningful assistance during challenging times, then this is the venture for you. It’s resilient to economic downturns—I’ve weathered multiple recessions in this field because it addresses homeowners’ essential needs rather than mere wants. Whether times are prosperous or tough, this business consistently proves its worth.”
