How much does a ServiceMaster Restore (Disaster Restoration) franchise make?
ServiceMaster Restore (Disaster Restoration) is one of the franchisors that answers this on the record: its most recent FDD makes an Item 19 financial performance representation — actual unit earnings figures, disclosed by the franchisor itself. The headline figure did not machine-read cleanly from this filing, so we don't print one; Item 19 of the source FDD has the tables. See every other brand that discloses earnings in the Other franchises with disclosed Item 19 earnings ranking.
ServiceMaster Restore (Disaster Restoration) franchise profit vs. revenue
Revenue is not profit. An Item 19 almost always reports sales — what a location takes in — not what an owner keeps. Out of that number come the royalty, the ad fund, rent, payroll, supplies and debt service. No FDD tells you a ServiceMaster Restore (Disaster Restoration) franchise's profit, because profit depends on your site, your rent and how you run it — so treat any "ServiceMaster Restore (Disaster Restoration) franchise profit" figure quoted elsewhere as someone's estimate, not a disclosure.
ServiceMaster Restore (Disaster Restoration) lawsuits & legal history (FDD Item 3)
ServiceMaster Restore (Disaster Restoration)'s most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2026) does disclose legal proceedings in Item 3 . Item 3 is the item where a franchisor must put its material legal history on the record. Two things it is not: it covers the franchisor and its predecessors, parents and affiliates, so a disclosed case is not necessarily a suit against ServiceMaster Restore (Disaster Restoration) itself; and a disclosure is a fact, not a finding of wrongdoing — most entries are contract disputes with former franchisees, which every large system accumulates. Item 3 of the source FDD describes each case.
ServiceMaster Restore (Disaster Restoration) closures & failure rate
Before you sign, ServiceMaster Restore (Disaster Restoration) will hand you a list of current owners to call as references — and they choose who's on that list. It won't include the owners who quit, got bought out, or were forced out last year. The FDD does report that number, even though the reference list leaves those people off. Below is what ServiceMaster Restore (Disaster Restoration)'s most recent filing shows, and whether it's normal for a franchise of this kind.
The closest thing an FDD has to a failure rate is Item 20 — outlet openings, closures, terminations and non-renewals, reported by the franchisor. ServiceMaster Restore (Disaster Restoration)'s latest tables show a shrinking franchised network — more units left than opened. Its franchised-outlet closure rate — closures, terminations and non-renewals against outlets — is 1.9%. Net franchised outlets moved -22 to 1,910 in the latest reported year.
Who owns ServiceMaster Restore (Disaster Restoration)?
ServiceMaster Restore (Disaster Restoration)'s franchise is offered by ServiceMaster Clean/Restore SPE LLC — the franchisor named on the cover of its most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2026), and the entity a franchisee actually signs with. That name comes straight off the filing at WI DFI; it identifies the franchisor, not necessarily the ultimate parent company behind it.
