Description of Business
Storm Guard is the nation’s #1 exterior restoration franchise company. Storm Guard has assisted over 11,000 customers with replacement of roofing, siding, window and gutter projects resulting from hail or wind damage. Our work is done at the cost of the insurance industry, not the customers themselves. Our program only requires customers to pay their insurance deductible for our services and nothing more. We negotiate the total job costs with our customer’s insurance carrier and then complete the scope of work. Storm Guard also does non- insurance paid general construction as well.
Unlike fire and flood restoration companies specializing in interior restoration, Storm Guard focuses not just on the removal of damaged items but in the actual replacing of materials and products to the homes/businesses exterior. This is an emerging area for the hugely popular restoration category and is the first of its kind.
Storm Guard is proud to be the Nation’s First Insurance Exterior Restoration Franchise. Storm Guard offers franchisees innovative and sophisticated methods to develop a large and successful residential exterior restoration business. The Storm Guard business model combines simple business fundamentals with solid systems, the latest in weather technology and an unprecedented support infrastructure, driving towards tremendous income potential. If needed, Storm Guard handles all of the insurance negotiating (Supplementing Department) from a centralized location on behalf of the franchisees. Jobs were increased an average of 18% in revenue with no additional work or cost to the franchisee. This is documented in our Item 19.
