PaintEZ: Revolutionizing Residential and Commercial Painting Services

PaintEZ is a fast-growing franchise that offers high-quality painting services for both residential and commercial clients. Founded in 2015 by Jay Mason in Pleasant Grove, Utah, the company started franchising in 2017. Today, it is headquartered in Orem, Utah, and operates under the parent company EmeraldPro Franchising, Inc.

The franchise specializes in interior and exterior painting, drywall repair, carpentry work, pressure washing, concrete coatings, and shingle sealing.

PaintEZ is committed to providing efficient, affordable, and hassle-free painting experiences. Their streamlined process and focus on customer satisfaction have helped them expand to over 50 locations nationwide.

PaintEZ stands out with its use of modern tools like project visualizers and instant quoting technology. This tech-forward approach simplifies the customer journey and increases efficiency for franchisees.

Training

PaintEZ offers a structured and comprehensive training program to prepare franchisees for business operations. The training spans both classroom and on-the-job sessions, focusing on practical skills and administrative competence. Here are the key components:

1. Initial Training Program: This consists of approximately 13 days of training, divided into two sections—8 days at the corporate office and 5 days at the franchisee’s location. Topics include policies and procedures, job and painter management, customer service, sales, estimating, software, and accounting. Completion of both training sections is mandatory before launching operations.
2. Training Fees and Participation: The program costs $5,000 for up to two attendees. Additional participants may join the corporate office training for $500 each. Franchisees are responsible for all associated travel, lodging, and meal expenses.
3. Curriculum and Delivery: The training includes 53.5 hours of classroom and 40 hours of on-the-job training, with instructors specializing in different areas such as operations, technology, and accounting. PaintEZ may revise the curriculum and uses experienced professionals to lead the sessions, ensuring participants are well-equipped to manage the franchise.

Territory Protection

PaintEZ provides each franchisee with an exclusive territory, typically encompassing a population base of approximately 300,000 people. This territory is negotiated based on factors like population density and geographic setting and is defined in the Franchise Agreement. Franchisees are the only ones permitted to market and operate using the PaintEZ system within this defined area.

While franchisees cannot market outside their territory, they may service clients in another territory if those clients originated from personal relationships and the other franchisee is informed. Marketing efforts, including internet promotions, are strictly regulated and must be coordinated and approved by PaintEZ. Unauthorized advertising or customer solicitation outside one's territory is prohibited.

The franchisor retains the right to sell PaintEZ outlets through non-traditional means and to market products through other channels, including online platforms and retail locations, without compensating franchisees.
