Why this business fits a young operator
Built for Someone Who Wants to Work Hard and Grow
Leads answered 24/7
A call centre books jobs around the clock, so no lead is lost while your kid is on a roof.
No storefront, no lease
Home-based, with one truck to start.
Customers who come back
Eight exterior services sold to homeowners, property managers, HOAs and commercial operators, again and again.
How the partnership works
You Back It. They Build It.
You
- Provide the investment
- Meet the Gorilla team
- Stay involved as an owner and advisor
Your son or daughter
- Complete Gorilla's training
- Run the business every day
- Hire and lead the crew as it grows
Gorilla must approve every owner and operating partner. We'll help you confirm how ownership, guarantees and roles are structured during discovery.
The Model — One Call, Eight Services
Gorilla isn't one service.
It's the "one call" that replaces five fragmented vendors.
Most exterior service companies claim to be the best at one thing: the fastest pressure washing, the best graffiti removal, the cheapest price. Gorilla does all of it, under one brand, for the same client.
Same client. Multiple services. Year-round revenue.
Property managers don't want five vendors. They want one. One vendor → one relationship → recurring revenue. That's where this model wins.
Pressure washing
Window cleaning
Gutter cleaning
Roof cleaning
Dryer vent cleaning
Graffiti removal
Snow removal
Seasonal services
Why The Revenue Doesn't Stop
This isn't discretionary spending.
Much of this work is required by insurers, local bylaws and HOA contracts. That kind of demand doesn't disappear in a downturn.
Insurance Carriers Require
- Gutter + roof maintenance
- Exterior upkeep
- Safety compliance
HOAs Mandate
- Building washing
- Window cleaning
- Graffiti removal by contract
Commercial Operators
- Exterior compliance non-negotiable
- Tied to their insurance
- Required — not optional
For much of this work, property managers don't decide whether to do it. Only who does it.
Questions parents ask
A few things worth asking early.
You don't need home services experience, but you do need someone willing to learn, work hard, follow systems and lead people. Your son or daughter will meet the Gorilla team and talk to current owners before anyone signs.

- 03

Is This For You?
This isn't for everyone.
This is for you if:
You've got $100K+ liquid and you're done chasing one-off jobs
You'd rather build relationships than burn through leads
You're comfortable managing a small team
You believe recurring revenue beats big one-time paydays
This is not for you if:
You want passive income (this is simple, not easy)
You need to be the one swinging the wand
You're looking for a quick flip
Built to Scale
Gorilla sets you up to grow — not just survive.
From day one you get a playbook built by franchisees who've already done it — the hiring process, the B2B pitch, the property manager approach that drives recurring contracts.
Gorilla trucks, gorilla shirts, gorilla lawn signs. In a category full of plain white vans, your customers will remember who you are.
Gorilla Property Services is a member of the Canadian Franchise Association and the International Franchise Association.

The Franchise Insiders
We owned franchises before we advised on them.
Jack helped scale TheKey Home Care's franchise system from 30 to more than 250 locations and was on its leadership team through its private-equity sale. Jill spent fifteen years in marketing and enterprise sales, including at IBM and Wynn Las Vegas, before co-founding The Franchise Insiders. We also owned and sold a Pink's Window Services franchise, and its recurring revenue is why it sold for nearly 10 times net. We know what recurring exterior services are worth.
We don't hand you a list of franchises. We evaluate whether a specific brand matches your capital, your market, and your goals — and we tell you honestly when it doesn't.
Together, we've helped more than 870 people become franchise owners. No cost to you. Same terms as going direct.

Our Team
We've owned franchises. Every one of us.
Most franchise consultants have studied FDDs and attended Discovery Days. Our advisors have also operated franchises. We've managed employees, navigated slow ramp-ups, and learned that a business can be easy to buy and hard to sell.
That operating experience changes how we help you evaluate an opportunity.
