What is THE PATCH BOYS franchise?

THE PATCH BOYS is one of the most exciting franchise opportunities in the booming home services industry. By focusing on repairing damaged drywall, a problem most home and property owners experience sooner or later, THE PATCH BOYS is able to capitalize on an in-demand service that other brands ignore and less experienced contractors aren’t qualified to perform. With low-investment costs, a quick ramp-up time, minimal equipment, and exceptional support provided by the BELFOR Franchise Group, THE PATCH BOYS is a compelling opportunity for entrepreneurs looking for a recession-resistant business with plenty of room to grow.


Do we compete with other drywall companies?

No! We designed THE PATCH BOYS to fill a much needed and almost always overlooked niche – the small hole drywall repair. Most drywall companies have large crews and focus on new construction or remodeling. They install sheets of drywall by the dozens. Because of their scale, they avoid small jobs. That’s where we come in: the average homeowner goes to a site like Angie’s List, HomeAdvisor, or even Facebook Marketplace to search for hole repair. We’re visible in those places and have affordable project pricing for these jobs specifically. We are the first call a plumber or electrician makes, too, when they have to bust open a wall to install new wiring or fix a leak. We can repair the hole, and we’re done in a few hours. Then, on to the next job!
