Design Pro Remodeling®
What Is Design Pro Remodeling?
Design Pro Remodeling is a franchise that offers a full line of remodeling and handyman services in the Construction & Home Improvement category. It serves both residential (B2C) and commercial (B2B) customers, including homeowners, commercial property owners, property managers, landlords, churches, and real estate investors. The franchise operates as a management-driven service under a proprietary System in which the franchisee handles marketing, customer development, estimates, bids, contracts, scheduling, pricing, invoicing, and collections, while actual field work is performed by independent subcontractors.
Design Pro Remodeling Franchise: Pros and Cons
A territory protection score of 73 (top 5% for Construction and Home Improvement) gives strong exclusive rights and protection from nearby franchised openings, but the $60,000 initial franchise fee (top 10%) and the franchisor's four company-owned units (top 10%) raise concerns about upfront cost and franchising commitment.
Pros
Cons
Lawsuits & Legal Risk
Design Pro Remodeling reported no material legal proceedings,
Territory Protection
Design Pro Remodeling grants a protected single-territory-typically 40,000–60,000 households defined by mapping tools and identifiable boundaries-and permits management from anywhere within it. The franchisor retains the right to develop additional units in the surrounding market and to sell via alternative distribution channels or different trademarks; no sales quotas apply.
Training & Support
Design Pro Remodeling provides a Streamlined 68-hour training curriculum designed to prepare three managerial staff members included in the initial franchise fee for launch and ongoing operations. The program includes on-site launch support focused on operational readiness; franchisees are responsible for travel and lodging expenses and for any additional costs associated with on-site assistance.
Unit Growth Analysis
Design Pro Remodeling has grown to 9 units, about a 50% net increase since 2024 with growth accelerating roughly 29% year-over-year. For a prospective owner that’s early validation-the concept is attracting buyers-but the system is still tiny and nearly half the locations are company-owned, so expect evolving policies, hands-on franchisor involvement, and a real chance that support capacity will trail new openings.
