About Us
Our corporate philosophy was inspired by Abraham Lincoln and his enduring commitment to hard work, a job well done and his never wavering dedication to excellence.
Honest Abe Roofing was founded a decade ago with the goal to create a marketing and sales-based business model and to improve upon how roofing and other home improvement products and services were promoted and provided in a highly-fragmented marketplace.
It's with this same philosophy that the Honest Abe Roofing franchise program was created to provide smart, sales-oriented entrepreneurs with flexible business ownership opportunities, a streamlined start-up procedure and efficient processes for everything from lead creation to project completion.
We help entrepreneur-minded leaders evaluate what owning and overseeing a local roofing business involves, how the operating system supports local execution, and whether an available market aligns with their goals. Explore the ownership role, training, marketing support, territory process, and next steps-without making a franchise commitment.
The information presented may have changed since first published. We recommend that you always verify fees, investment amounts and offers with the business opportunity directly prior to making a decision to invest.
1. What training and ongoing support do you provide?
You want to know what happens after you pay the initial fee. A strong franchisor provides comprehensive pre-opening training, site-selection help, operational playbooks, and continuous assistance with marketing, technology, and supply chains.
2. What is the total initial investment, and did actual startup costs match the estimates in Item 7 of the FDD?
The Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) lists estimated startup costs in Item 7, but real-world expenses can run higher. Asking how closely current owners tracked to these estimates reveals if you need extra working capital or if hidden fees exist.
3. How do royalties and local/national marketing fees impact profitability?
You need to understand ongoing financial obligations-such as monthly royalty percentages and ad fund contributions-and evaluate whether the brand value and support justify cutting into your profit margins.
4. What are the common challenges new franchisees face, and how do you help them overcome them?
Transparent franchisors will openly discuss real hurdles like local competition, tight labor markets, or supply chain bottlenecks, and show you the exact playbook or field support they offer to solve them as well as allowing you to speak with other franchisees.
5. How many franchise locations have closed or left the system in the past few years, and why?
High turnover, store closures, or quiet franchise exits are major red flags. This question measures system stability, territory health, and whether the corporate team addresses struggling owners or lets them fail.
