Why The Electric Repair and Replacement Industry?
Residential energy consumption is on the rise, and the expanding need for home electrical contracting will drive a bright future for this specialized sector of the home services industry.
A continuous stream of electricity is crackling through every home in North America, powering computers, lights, even electric vehicle chargers. Unlike other home services, which may affect just one area or element of the home, electricity touches literally every corner. And rapid advancement in consumer technology is only fueling the need for quality electrical services across the country.
Startup Advantages of Franchise Ownership
Small Footprint
Low overhead is part of the beauty of our model. Initial office space is not required and is only needed when you deem it necessary.
Limited Receivables
Most projects are "same day pay" where your technicians leave with payment. Rarely do you have to chase down receivables.
Marketing-Driven
The customer seeks out In-demand electrical services. There is no need for cold calling because customers find you.
In its 2021 mid-year report on the U.S. Electricians industry, research company, IBIS World noted that the outlook for electricians is bright1.

Ideal Franchise Owner
You Have the Drive and Spark
The motivation to become a business owner stems from many things, but the majority of our current owners have chosen Mr. Electric as a way to regain the time and freedom that are in short supply in the corporate world. They are former managers and sales leaders looking for a culture of cooperation, trust, and respect, which they have found in abundance within the Mr. Electric and the Neighborly family of brands.
We've realized those who excel within our system seem to have undeniable energy coursing through their veins. They know the business opportunity they have chosen to align with gets more exciting with each passing day. There is no slowing the electrical industry, just as our franchise owners are not stopping from leading the charge.
