Dryer Vent Squad Franchising

Own a Dryer Vent Squad franchise

Take a moment to think about every dryer in every home in your market. Now think about how many of those vents haven't been cleaned in years. That's your opportunity — and it's enormous.

Dryer vent cleaning is a recession-resistant, repeat-revenue home service driven by fire safety, insurance requirements, and efficiency. With Dryer Vent Squad, you're not inventing a category, you're scaling a brand that already dominates search, reviews, and homeowner trust.

Franchise owners receive access to large protected territories of homes and businesses with populations up to 500,000 people, along with national and local marketing resources, operating systems, and comprehensive classroom and hands-on training.

This is your chance to be your own boss in a business where the phone rings because the work is essential — not optional.

Why franchise

Four reasons to own a Dryer Vent Squad Franchise

In-Demand Every Year

Every home with a dryer needs vent cleaning — annually. Fire prevention, efficiency, and insurance requirements help keep demand steady. Dryer Vent Squad franchisees serve a need that never goes away.

Efficient Business Model

Our home-based model is designed to operate efficiently. No retail storefront, no massive inventory — you invest in trucks, equipment, training and ongoing support. Best of all, we schedule maintenance and repair appointments, not after hours emergency service so you can enjoy work-life balance. Startup investment as low as $89,150.

Recession-Resistant Demand

Dryer vent cleaning is essential maintenance, not a luxury. Homeowners, landlords, and property managers schedule service every year. When belts tighten, fire safety doesn't get cut from the budget.

Proven Brand (10,000+ Reviews)

We built the system, the strategy, and the national reputation. You're set up to drive leads and provide exceptional service from day one.

The opportunity

The Squad advantage

Dryer Vent Squad sets itself apart with a proven home-service model — protected territories, a 7% royalty, and a brand homeowners already trust.

Trained Techs & HQ Certification

Comprehensive one-on-one classroom and hands-on training covers certification, operations, marketing, and finance. You hit the ground running—no industry experience required. 64% of our franchisees come from outside home services.

7% Royalty

Our 7% royalty structure keeps fees transparent and predictable — so you know exactly what you pay as you grow. Scale your territory with a clear cost structure from day one.

24/7 Franchisee Support

National dispatch, marketing programs, and a network of Squad owners who've been through the same launch. You're never building alone — this may be your first business, but it's not ours.

Franchise ownership
vs. starting from scratch

Building a home-service business alone means years of trial and error — brand development, operating procedures, marketing resources, technology and business systems. Franchise ownership gives you immediate value that's impossible to replicate on your own.

Dryer Vent Squad franchisees hit the ground running — national marketing, buying power, established systems, and a network of owners who've done it before you.

Protected, zip-code-level territories. No other Squad trucks within your borders. Ever.
Drive leads with a proven marketing strategy. Our national brand, SEO, and paid search help get you on the map. Turn-key marketing systems make it possible for you to focus on providing exceptional service.
Comprehensive classroom and hands-on training. Certification, operations, marketing, and finance — you hit the ground running.
No industry experience required. 64% of our franchisees come from outside home services.

★★★★★

With over 12 years of experience in a franchise system, including the last two and a half years with Home Based Franchise Group, I have been very pleased with the company and the support I have received as a franchisee. Whenever I need advice, guidance, or help with any aspect of the business, someone is always willing to listen, offer perspective, and provide helpful feedback. Running a business can sometimes feel like a solo endeavor, but being part of Home Based Franchise Group gives me the benefit of having a team behind me.
