FRSTeam has earned recognition as a top low-cost franchise precisely because the model doesn’t require a massive physical footprint to generate meaningful revenue. Overhead stays lean. The work flows through insurance claims rather than consumer discretionary spending, so demand holds steady regardless of economic conditions.
Our economics reflect a system refined over 35 years meaning you’re not just buying potential, you’re buying a proven platform with built-in commercial relationships and award-winning reputation that already opens doors.

FRSTeam was named a Top Low-Cost Franchise by Franchise Business Review in 2025. The total investment range of $138,875 to $553,500 reflects that: the model doesn’t require a large production facility to get started. Many franchisees open on the lower end of that range and scale their footprint as revenue builds.
The $65,000 to $75,000 franchise fee is the entry point, but it’s not the whole picture. The fee covers initial training, access to the National Accounts Program, and the FRSTaid 3.0 software setup. What you’re buying isn’t a name. It’s a functioning commercial system with built-in demand.
FRSTeam has been ranked among the Most Profitable franchise concepts in restoration for multiple consecutive years.
The initial investment gives you clear picture of what is expected in the launch of the business. Full explanation can be found in the Item 7 of the FDD and in conversation with a member of our Franchise Development Team.

The numbers above show what it takes to get started. What happens next depends on how the business is run. But the model is built with structural advantages on your side: lean overhead, steady demand driven by insurance claims rather than discretionary spending, and a system refined over 35 years.
A quick snapshot of what that foundation looks like on paper:
total estimated investment, with many franchisees opening on the lower end
franchise fee, covering training, the National Accounts Program, and FRSTaid 3.0 setup
continuing royalty on monthly gross revenues
of system development behind the model
Many franchisees use that foundation to expand their territory or add a second location once the first is established.
You’re not building this alone. Every franchisee is backed by the National Accounts Program, ongoing operational support, and a Franchise Development Team that stays in the conversation well past the signing table. The investment buys the system. The support is what helps you run it.
