About

​Since 1970, Mr. Rooter® has provided a variety of residential and commercial plumbing services as a nationally recognized industry leader. Mr. Rooter franchise owners serve customers in more than 235 locations across North America. Whether converting an existing plumbing business or starting a new one, franchise owners looking to be their own boss have the support and resources to pursue their dream of business ownership in a growing industry.

​Rooter 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 Mr. Rooter franchise owners apart from the competition.

Why Franchise With Mr. Rooter?

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 wrench to be successful, especially after hiring an expert staff.

Recession-Resilient Model: Our licensed professionals provide expertise with sewers, drains, septic systems, and so much more. From preventative maintenance to emergency repairs and everything in between, Mr. Rooter is the one-stop shop to keep plumbing issues from backing up.

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 Mr. Rooter locations instead of compete for the same customers.

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 50 years of success, Mr. Rooter 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®.
