Send Me a Pro Franchise Cost and Requirements for 2026

Background

About Send Me a Pro:
Send Me a Pro is the first Home Services Platform Franchise: multiple home services under one franchise, in one exclusive territory.

Every franchisee launches as a handyman business. Handyman has the highest search volume of any home service, which makes it the most cost-effective way to win a household - and every visit surfaces the next thing the home needs. From there, the franchisee keeps that customer for everything else: house cleaning, lawn care, painting, home contractors, home maintenance plans and more, adding categories as the market proves demand.

Traditionally, each service category is a standalone franchise. Ours aggregates them, which does two things at once: it lowers your concentration risk, and it removes the single-category ceiling on growth - the balanced fund rather than the single stock. For one handyman job we are no different from any other handyman business. Their model ends there. Ours begins there.

Once a customer likes and trusts you for one service, they're 97% likely to use you for the others you offer. The business grows in four stages, each funded by the one before it: Deliver (handyman, in-house from day one), Retain (home maintenance plans and the free app, offered after the first successful visit - members get 10-15% off handyman work), Refer (everything else to vetted preferred vendors for a commission), and Insource (bring a category in-house once demand is proven).

Our mission is to eliminate the haggling, quote-chasing and price shopping it takes to hire a local pro. We act as a dedicated home manager for the homeowner: pre-priced services at fair rates, background-checked and insured pros, a one-year warranty on handyman work and a satisfaction guarantee. We're the Advil for the Homeowner.

The company started in 2007 as an in-home concierge service in Washington DC, built its own proprietary technology - websites, mobile apps and CRM, custom-built and company-owned - and launched its first franchise by popular request. When customer demand pointed clearly toward home services, and toward handyman as the highest-volume entry point, we evolved on that evidence and launched Send Me a Pro. In 2026 the brand was sharpened into Send Me a Pro - Handyman+. Today there are 300+ territories awarded across five countries.

Send Me a Pro was featured by Entrepreneur Magazine as a disruptor in the franchise industry, with the founders on the cover alongside leaders such as the CEOs of Zoom and LinkedIn, Magic Johnson and guest Sharks from Shark Tank. Entrepreneur has ranked Send Me a Pro in the Franchise 500 and as Fastest Growing Franchise in 2026, Franchise 500 in 2025, Top Global Franchise in 2024, Fastest Growing in 2023 and 2024, and Top Emerging Brand in 2022.

Area Representative Program:

We are primarily targeting Area Representatives: candidates who acquire a protected region of ten or more territories at wholesale, for a fee starting at $69,998 - roughly what it would cost to operate two territories individually. For the price of two, you hold the rights to ten. You then choose to award territories to local franchisees, operate them yourself, or a mix of both, and you can change the mix at any time.

When awarding territories, Area Reps earn 80% of each sub-franchise fee and 60% of the ongoing royalties from every franchisee they award, for the life of the relationship. When operating a territory, the Area Rep signs a unit franchise agreement with an 80% offset against the fee - a net cost of about $7,000 per territory instead of $34,999. Ten territories at the standard fee would retail at roughly $350,000; the Area Rep acquires them for $69,998.

The Area Rep is the local point of contact, coach and leader for the franchisees in their region; corporate provides the systems, technology, brand and initial training.

Buying a Franchise Guide: What is a Franchise Disclosure Document?

When evaluating a franchise opportunity, reading and understanding the current version of their FDD is a necessity. Considering the benefits of franchising, such as established brand recognition and support from the franchisor, it's important to also take into account franchise fees and franchising royalty fees. Since most franchisors are privately owned companies, the current versions of their FDDs are typically not available unless requested directly from them.
