Rainbow International Franchise Model Overview

Rainbow Restoration franchises, still filed under the Rainbow International legal name, dry out flooded buildings, clean up after fires, remediate mold, deodorize, clean carpet and hard surfaces, and increasingly handle the rebuild that follows, with most larger jobs flowing through insurance carriers and estimated in Xactware. The brand dates to 1981 and now sits in KKR-owned Neighborly, which supplies a central call center and software stack for a sizable monthly technology fee. The investment is low-to-mid six figures: a wrapped box truck, drying and extraction equipment, insurance and six to nine months of working capital, with a 2,000 to 5,000 square foot shop leased after the first year of permitted home operation. Royalty is a sliding percentage that falls as volume rises, and the franchisor enforces minimum performance standards and a large local marketing spend in the first two years. The principal owner or a trained manager must supervise directly, and owners sign a guaranty. The system is fully franchised and flat.
