Rolling Suds is a professional power washing franchise founded in 1990 by Brian Wendling Sr. in Warrington, Pennsylvania. With over 30 years in the industry, the company has completed more than 100,000 jobs for residential and commercial customers.

In 2022, Rolling Suds began franchising, offering a scalable and proven business model. The company remains headquartered in Warrington, PA.

The franchise specializes in power and soft washing services for homes, businesses, and commercial properties. Its proprietary "Professional Wash Method" ensures consistent, high-quality results. This method, combined with well-trained technicians, creates a strong customer experience and helps franchisees build long-term relationships.

Unlike other home service franchises that diversify across various services, Rolling Suds focuses solely on power washing. This allows franchisees to become true experts in one profitable niche. The brand’s emphasis on quality, efficiency, and professionalism sets it apart in a fragmented industry.

Training

Rolling Suds offers a comprehensive set of training programs to prepare franchisees for successful business operation. The key training offerings include:

1. Initial Management Training Program: This is a mandatory five-day program conducted at the franchisor’s headquarters in Warrington, Pennsylvania (or an alternate designated location). It includes classroom instruction and hands-on training using videos, reference books, worksheets, and the Operations Manual. Franchisees must complete at least 70% of an online course and fulfill specific prerequisites (like vehicle purchase and technician hiring) before starting.
2. Additional Training Programs: The franchisor may offer mandatory or optional additional training sessions, including a required annual business meeting or conference lasting up to five days. Missing more than one of these events is considered a default. Attendance incurs travel, lodging, meals, and training fees at the current rate.
3. In-Territory Remedial Training: Franchisees may request phone, screen-share, or on-site remedial training. On-site support involves additional fees, including a per diem and associated travel costs for the franchisor’s representatives.

Territory Protection

Rolling Suds grants franchisees a defined “Protected Area” based on zip codes and population, typically between 225,000 to 275,000 people. Within this area, no other Rolling Suds outlet will be opened if the franchisee is in good standing.

However, the territory is not exclusive. The franchisor may still sell through alternative channels, serve national accounts, or authorize other business models in the area. Franchisees may face competition from other franchisees, company-owned units, or affiliates.
