Figures above are as disclosed in Tile Liquidators's most recent FDD (registered 2024). Source: California Dept. of Financial Protection and Innovation — Franchise Registration · filing app-30620. The risk level, the Item 19 figures, how it compares to peers, and the litigation & churn detail are in the full report.

Tile Liquidators franchise profit — what the FDD discloses

Plainly: Tile Liquidators 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 Tile Liquidators — any number quoted elsewhere is an estimate, not a disclosure. The absence is itself worth weighing (many retail franchisors do disclose), and the full report reads the risk signals Tile Liquidators's FDD does contain — fees, litigation, and outlet churn — against peers. For brands that put earnings on paper, see Retail franchises with disclosed Item 19 earnings.

Tile Liquidators lawsuits & legal history (FDD Item 3)

We do not publish a litigation answer for Tile Liquidators. 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.

Tile Liquidators closures & failure rate

Before you sign, Tile Liquidators 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 Tile Liquidators's most recent filing shows, and whether it's normal for a retail 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. Tile Liquidators's latest tables show significant franchisee turnover. The actual closure and termination counts, and how Tile Liquidators's churn ranks against retail peers, are in the full report.

Who owns Tile Liquidators?

Tile Liquidators's franchise is offered by Tile Liquidators, LLC — 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.

Tile Liquidators franchise — frequently asked

Who owns Tile Liquidators — who is the franchisor?

Tile Liquidators's most recently filed FDD (2024) names Tile Liquidators, 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 Tile Liquidators franchise cost?

Tile Liquidators's most recently filed FDD (Item 7) puts the total estimated initial investment at $79,700 – $167,200 and a 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 retail peers.

How much profit does a Tile Liquidators franchise make?

Tile Liquidators makes no Item 19 financial performance representation, so there is no franchisor-disclosed revenue or profit figure for Tile Liquidators 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 Tile Liquidators disclose financial performance (Item 19)?

No — Tile Liquidators'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 Tile Liquidators?

We do not publish a litigation answer for Tile Liquidators: Item 3 could not be read reliably from this filing, and we would rather say so than assert a clean record we have not verified. Item 3 of the FDD itself is the place to check.

Is Tile Liquidators a good franchise to buy?

That comes down to how Tile Liquidators's investment, earnings, litigation and franchisee churn stack up against retail peers — which is exactly what the full report answers. For $99 you get the risk level and what's driving it, the actual Item 19 earnings (absent from this FDD), where every figure ranks against peers, and the specific questions to ask the franchisor before you sign.
