How much does a Shine Window Care and/or franchise make?

Shine Window Care and/or 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 home services brand that discloses earnings in the Home services & home improvement franchises with disclosed Item 19 earnings ranking.

Shine Window Care and/or 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 Shine Window Care and/or's 7% royalty, the ad fund, rent, payroll, supplies and debt service. No FDD tells you a Shine Window Care and/or franchise's profit, because profit depends on your site, your rent and how you run it — so treat any "Shine Window Care and/or franchise profit" figure quoted elsewhere as someone's estimate, not a disclosure.

Shine Window Care and/or lawsuits & legal history (FDD Item 3)

Shine Window Care and/or'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 Shine Window Care and/or 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.

Shine Window Care and/or closures & failure rate

Before you sign, Shine Window Care and/or 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 Shine Window Care and/or's most recent filing shows, and whether it's normal for a home services 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. Shine Window Care and/or's latest tables show a growing franchised network. Its franchised-outlet closure rate — closures, terminations and non-renewals against outlets — is 1.4%, against a home services median of 5.1% — at or better than the category. Net franchised outlets moved +1 to 75 in the latest reported year.

Who owns Shine Window Care and/or?

Shine Window Care and/or's franchise is offered by SHINE DEVELOPMENT 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.

Shine Window Care and/or franchise — frequently asked

Who owns Shine Window Care and/or — who is the franchisor?

Shine Window Care and/or's most recently filed FDD (2026) names SHINE DEVELOPMENT LLC as the franchisor — the entity you would actually sign the franchise agreement with, as stated on the disclosure document itself. A registry filing names the franchisor, not necessarily its ultimate parent company.

How much does a Shine Window Care and/or franchise cost?

Shine Window Care and/or's most recently filed FDD (Item 7) puts the total estimated initial investment at $141,570 – $203,095 and a 7% royalty. That price is the franchisor's own estimate of what it takes to open, not a quote. Against home services peers it sits in the lower quartile (median $162,725).

How much profit does a Shine Window Care and/or franchise make?

Shine Window Care and/or discloses unit earnings in Item 19, but that figure is revenue — sales — not profit. Royalties (7% of gross for Shine Window Care and/or), the ad fund, rent, payroll and supplies all come out of it, and no FDD discloses what an owner nets. Any Shine Window Care and/or franchise profit number quoted elsewhere is an estimate.

Does Shine Window Care and/or disclose financial performance (Item 19)?

Yes — Shine Window Care and/or reports unit-level earnings in Item 19. The headline figure did not machine-read cleanly, so check Item 19 of the source FDD for the numbers.

Are there lawsuits against Shine Window Care and/or?

Shine Window Care and/or's most recently filed FDD (2026) discloses legal proceedings in Item 3. Item 3 covers the franchisor, its predecessors, parents and affiliates — so a disclosed case is not necessarily a suit against Shine Window Care and/or itself, and a disclosure is not a finding of wrongdoing.

Is Shine Window Care and/or a good franchise to buy?

Nobody can answer that from Shine Window Care and/or's numbers alone — it comes down to how its investment, earnings, litigation and franchisee churn stack up against home services peers and against your own budget. Our read on this filing is medium risk. Every figure behind that read is on this page for free. If you're comparing options, the free shortlist on this page matches you with 5–10 franchises that fit your budget and industry.
