High Margin, Low Entry Home Services Franchise - Industry Leader
Business Description
Motivated owner—low entry, high potential. This opportunity is not expected to stay on the market long. The current owner has determined the business is not the right fit, creating an opening for a new operator to step in and unlock its full potential.
Acquiring the CertaPro Painters® franchise serving Markham, Ontario presents a compelling opportunity to take over an established business in one of the Greater Toronto Area’s most affluent and diverse communities. Markham is known for its strong household incomes, high rates of homeownership, and continued population growth—driven by both new residential development and a well-established base of upscale neighborhoods. This creates consistent demand for premium residential repainting, alongside a stable and growing commercial sector.
The business already has a solid foundation with a strong commercial client base in place, while the residential side remains largely untapped—offering clear upside for the right owner focused on growth.
This is a rare chance to acquire a turnkey operation in the $60B painting industry, backed by the #1 painting company in North America. With CertaPro Painters®’ proven systems, brand strength, and ongoing support, a new owner is well-positioned to scale quickly and capitalize on Markham’s continued economic and housing expansion.
No painting or home improvement experience is required—this opportunity is about leading a team. You'll receive comprehensive support, from field and online training to advanced technology resources and turnkey marketing campaigns, allowing you to lead a successful business without ever picking up a paintbrush.
Areas serviced: Markham, Stouffville, Newmarket, Thornhill, Uxbridge, Unionville, Scarborough, Keswick, Schomberg, Gormley, Locust Hill, Beeton, Mount Albert, Tottenham
