Figures above are as disclosed in RR's most recent FDD (registered 2024). Source: California Dept. of Financial Protection and Innovation — Franchise Registration · filing app-31421. The risk level, the Item 19 figures, how it compares to peers, and the litigation & churn detail are in the full report.
RR franchise profit — what the FDD discloses
Plainly: RR 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 RR — 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 RR'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.
RR lawsuits & legal history (FDD Item 3)
RR's most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2024) does disclose 2 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 RR 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. The full RR report lists each case with what it was about and how it ended, separates franchisee disputes from corporate and securities matters, and flags the ones a franchisee started — the split that actually matters, because franchisees suing their franchisor is the signal a buyer is looking for.
RR closures & failure rate
Before you sign, RR 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 RR'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. RR's latest tables show a shrinking franchised network — more units left than opened. The actual closure and termination counts, and how RR's churn ranks against cleaning & restoration peers, are in the full report.

Who owns RR?
RR's franchise is offered by RR Franchising, Inc. — the franchisor named on the cover of its most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2024), and the entity a franchisee actually signs with. That name comes straight off the filing at CA DFPI; it identifies the franchisor, not necessarily the ultimate parent company behind it.

Anyone weighing RR is really weighing it against the other brands their money could go into. These are the closest by total initial investment (FDD Item 7), each with its own FDD-based page.
RR franchise — frequently asked
Who owns RR — who is the franchisor?
RR's most recently filed FDD (2024) names RR Franchising, Inc. 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 RR franchise cost?
RR's most recently filed FDD (Item 7) puts the total estimated initial investment at $500 – $10,950, with an initial franchise fee of $5,000 and a 11.5% royalty. That price is the franchisor's own estimate of what it takes to open, not a quote. The full report breaks down every fee line and benchmarks it against cleaning & restoration peers.
How much profit does a RR franchise make?
RR makes no Item 19 financial performance representation, so there is no franchisor-disclosed revenue or profit figure for RR at all — and profit would never be disclosed even where earnings are, because it depends on your rent, labour and how you operate. Any profit figure quoted elsewhere is an estimate, not a disclosure.
Does RR disclose financial performance (Item 19)?
No — RR's most recent FDD makes no Item 19 financial performance representation. Its absence is worth weighing; the report focuses on the verifiable risk signals instead.
Are there lawsuits against RR?
RR's most recently filed FDD (2024) discloses 2 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 RR itself, and a disclosure is not a finding of wrongdoing. The full report lists each case, separates franchisee disputes from corporate and securities matters, and flags the franchisee-initiated ones.
