About Bar-B-Clean
Bar-B-Clean specializes in offering barbecue cleaning, service, parts, and repairs, as well as new grill sales. Their mission is to promote a healthy, family-oriented lifestyle to clients while pioneering and leading the untapped barbecue cleaning industry.
Operating as a mobile home service business, Bar-B-Clean provides a service that customers desire but prefer not to do themselves, much like window cleaning or carpet cleaning. The target customer base includes anyone with a backyard barbecue, and Bar-B-Clean emphasizes the importance of professionally cleaning grills every six months to eliminate cancer-causing carcinogens left behind by old food and rat droppings, which pose health risks.
In addition to residential customers, Bar-B-Clean also capitalizes on business-to-business opportunities, serving HOAs, apartment complexes, office buildings, hotels, and Airbnb properties.
With a focus on the middle to upper-class demographic, Bar-B-Clean distinguishes itself from mom-and-pop competitors through its proprietary steam cleaning system and custom Stainless-Steel Polish, which establishes instant credibility and brand awareness. A proprietary CRM system ensures that customers receive appointment reminders and professional invoices, while also helping franchisees stay organized and efficient in managing their operations.

Testimonials
“I felt like it was a unique opportunity to not only get in business but also help people to live healthier lifestyles… most people I’ve encountered don’t even clean their grill so it’s an opportunity to educate them about what you can do to cook and eat healthier.”
- Helen Arizor, East Dallas, TX Franchisee
“As we looked into the process of properly cleaning a grill, we realized that the task was quite labor intensive which created a problem that most people wouldn't or simply couldn't take on themselves. As big believers in the benefits of being a part of a franchise system, we got really excited when we learned about the opportunities that Bar-B-Clean provided.”
- Seth McKennon and JoBen Barkey, South Orange County, CA
