Five Star Painting
What does a Five Star Painting Franchise Cost?
Five Star Painting, a Neighborly company, is the nation's leading residential and commercial painting services franchise. With us, business ownership is a stroke of genius!
About
Since 2004, Five Star Painting® has provided a variety of residential and commercial painting services as a nationally recognized industry leader. Five Star Painting franchise owners serve customers in more than 240 locations across North America. When it comes to starting a painting business, franchise owners looking to be their own boss have the support and resources to pursue their dream of business ownership in a growing industry.
Five Star Painting is proud to be a part of Neighborly®, the world’s largest home services franchise with 19 brands and more than 5,000 locations focused on repairing, maintaining, and enhancing properties. Utilizing decades of experience and scale through the Neighborly Hub, this multi-brand portfolio provides our franchise owners with distinct advantages like improved networking opportunities and customer referrals between brands in the same local market, ultimately creating value for franchise owners and customers alike.
The Neighborly Done Right Promise™ is a core component of putting customer service first by taking the stress out of home maintenance, having pride in the work that gets done, and promising to make things right. Additionally, the culture across the entire family of brands is embodied by the Neighborly Code of Values, which emphasizes the importance of fostering a set of ideals that guide the organization. These elements, while small to some, set Neighborly and Five Star Painting franchise owners apart from the competition.
Why Franchise With Five Star Painting?
No Industry Experience Required: By utilizing an executive ownership model where you make the decisions and manage your own business, you won’t need to hold a paintbrush to be successful, especially after putting together a reliable staff.
Highly Scalable Model: Embrace operational simplicity by using subcontractors instead of full-time employees. Better yet, no initial office space, low overhead, and a small footprint lead to a more hands-off approach as you grow your business.
Prime Territories: With available territories in some of the fastest-growing markets, there’s ample space and demand to establish your franchise. Better yet, thanks to designated territories, you’ll be able to collaborate and share best practices with other Five Star Painting locations instead of compete for the same customers.
ProTradeNet® Buying Power: Exclusively available to Neighborly brand franchise owners, you’ll have access to discounts and rebates from over 250 preferred vendors, such as Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore. In 2023, Neighborly brand franchise owners who joined PTN collectively received over $8.7 million in rebates and $98 million in up-front savings.
Award-Winning Recognition: With more than 20 years of success, Five Star Painting has been recognized by leading organizations within the franchising space, such as Entrepreneur Franchise 500®, Franchise Business Review Top 200, and Franchise Times Top 400®.
Veteran Discounts: We are proud to partner with VetFran and offer franchise fee discounts for qualified veterans. With more than 425 current Veteran owners across Neighborly brands, we’re committed to helping transitioning and current Veterans achieve their business goals.
