How much does a Order a Plumber franchise make?

Order a Plumber 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.

Order a Plumber 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 Order a Plumber's 6% royalty, the ad fund, rent, payroll, supplies and debt service. No FDD tells you a Order a Plumber franchise's profit, because profit depends on your site, your rent and how you run it — so treat any "Order a Plumber franchise profit" figure quoted elsewhere as someone's estimate, not a disclosure.

Order a Plumber lawsuits & legal history (FDD Item 3)

We do not publish a litigation answer for Order a Plumber. Item 3 could not be read reliably from this particular filing, and a claim that a company has no legal history is not one to make on a failed parse — so we say we do not know instead. Item 3 of the FDD itself is the place to check; the methodology page explains what we do and do not machine-read.

Order a Plumber closures & failure rate

Before you sign, Order a Plumber 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 Order a Plumber'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. Order a Plumber's latest tables show a stable franchised network.

Who owns Order a Plumber?

Order a Plumber's franchise is offered by OAP Franchises, Inc. — 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.
