Why Restoration, and Why Now?
The restoration industry generates over $210B in annual claims across North America. It’s a recession-resistant, insurance-backed, need-it-now service that continues to grow due to:
- ✓ Increased climate-related disaster
- ✓ Aging infrastructure
- ✓ Year-round demand and repeat business
- ✓ High margins, low overhead, and minimal inventory
Your candidates don’t need restoration experience—just drive, leadership skills, and a desire to build a meaningful, profitable business.
