Testimonials

“During my search for franchise opportunities, I had a strong desire to be affiliated with a brand of integrity, strength, and momentum. In the 7 years I have been involved in the network I have met the most honest, hardworking, respectful team of individuals who I refer to as my friends. Our office has the highest market penetration in all North America, and I couldn’t be prouder, I am very honoured to be a part of this brand and share insight for others to achieve success.”






Eddie Bruce

"My mom and dad bought the franchise in 1997 after having been in the real estate development business. They were so tired of the ups and downs and wanted something more stable. Obviously, all markets have ups and downs, but this business tends to be a bit more stable and fares well even during recessions."

“What drew us to the Paul Davis network was the opportunity to serve people in their time of need. The restoration industry allows us to not only focus on the mitigation aspect of a project but also other related property services. Just having the Paul Davis name gives us credibility, allowing us the opportunity to seek various avenues for work. 

It’s great when you have a large network onboard striving for the same results. We are able to lean on not only the franchisor for help and direction, but we can also reach out to any fellow franchisees to share ideas and come up with solutions to almost any issue that arises.”
