Figures above are as disclosed in Advanced Laser Restoration's most recent FDD (registered 2024).

The risk level, the Item 19 figures, how it compares to peers, and the litigation & churn detail are in the full report.
Advanced Laser Restoration franchise profit — what the FDD discloses
Plainly: Advanced Laser Restoration does not disclose franchise profit or revenue. Its most recent FDD makes no Item 19 financial performance representation, so there is no franchisor-backed earnings figure for Advanced Laser Restoration — any number quoted elsewhere is an estimate, not a disclosure. The absence is itself worth weighing (many cleaning & restoration franchisors do disclose), and the full report reads the risk signals Advanced Laser Restoration's FDD does contain — fees, litigation, and outlet churn — against peers. For brands that put earnings on paper, see Cleaning & restoration franchises with disclosed Item 19 earnings.
Advanced Laser Restoration lawsuits & legal history (FDD Item 3)
Advanced Laser Restoration's most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2024) discloses no litigation in Item 3. That is a real signal rather than a gap: the FTC Franchise Rule requires a franchisor to disclose material litigation involving itself, its predecessors, parents, affiliates and management, so an empty Item 3 in a current filing means there was nothing it was required to report. It is worth reading alongside the churn numbers — a system can have a clean Item 3 and still be losing franchisees, which is what Item 20 shows.
Advanced Laser Restoration closures & failure rate
Before you sign, Advanced Laser 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 Advanced Laser Restoration's most recent filing shows, and whether it's normal for a cleaning & restoration 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. Advanced Laser Restoration's outlet tables are read directly from the FDD in the full report. The actual closure and termination counts, and how Advanced Laser Restoration's churn ranks against cleaning & restoration peers, are in the full report.
