All Dry Franchise Cost (2026)

What stands out about All Dry

Contract terminations, not owner closures, account for most of the decline in the franchised count, which fell in each year Item 20 covers. In 2025 the system added 1 franchised outlet while 22 left the count, ending the year at 81. Every exit that year listed under ceased operations was an outlet bought by another franchisee and folded into its business, so those are not shutdowns. A buyer can ask the franchisor why it ended so many agreements and what those owners owed when it did.

The royalty an owner pays depends on the work it sells. Item 6 sets the royalty at 7% of Gross Sales, but sales the franchisor accepts as reconstruction work, such as drywall, flooring and painting after a restoration job, carry a much lower rate. After the first year, a weekly minimum royalty also applies for each territory held, so an owner with several territories can owe the floor in slow weeks. Because the effective rate turns on the sales mix and the floor, this page does not estimate yearly fees from a single sales figure.

Most outlets in Item 19 cover more than the single territory the franchise fee buys. The smallest group with its own table, owners of a single territory, is a handful of outlets whose median sales fall well below their average. The broader group that adds owners of a few territories reports average gross sales of $440,226. The main Item 7 chart prices one territory, so a buyer comparing the investment with these sales figures should use the single-territory table, not the larger multi-territory results.

Item 17 contradicts itself on renewal. The 10-year agreement allows successor terms, and the renewal row and the Item 6 renewal fee describe each one as matching the original length, while the next row describes a shorter additional term. A buyer should have the franchise agreement's renewal section reviewed before relying on either.

Item 7 (PDF pages 19-20) prints $154,844 to $343,800 for one Territory; its 19 lines add to that total. The low vehicle estimate is a down payment and the high a purchase (note 2). Additional funds cover the first 3 months. A second chart for 2 to 20 Territories prints $199,844 to $1,023,800, adding $45,000 to $680,000 in additional franchise fees.

Item 6 sets the royalty at 7% of Gross Sales, but Gross Sales from approved Reconstruction Services pay 2%, and from the 13th month a minimum of $125 per week per Territory applies. A single annual sales figure cannot show the sales mix or which weeks reach the minimum, so this record does not produce an annual fee estimate or payback preset.

Item 20: All Dry franchised outlet history

Source: All Dry 2026 FDD, Item 20, PDF p. 50.

Item 20 Table 3 reports 81 franchised outlets at the end of 2025. The company-owned table reports a further 1 outlets. Our calculated average annual franchised exit rate is 19.4% across the 3 reported years, using the definition below.

Franchised units went from 118 to 81 over 3 years (-37).

Reported exits include terminations, non-renewals, franchisor reacquisitions and other cessations. A reacquired outlet may continue operating, and some reported events may reflect mergers or reopenings. How we calculate the exit rate. How to read the Item 20 outlet tables.

7 units changed owners in 2025.

Item 20 Table 3 totals are on PDF page 50; Table 1 (page 46), Table 2 transfers (pages 46-47) and Table 4 company-owned outlets (page 50) match. An asterisk on Table 3 marks outlets acquired by other franchisees and absorbed into their existing operations, which the FDD says continued operating: 5 of the 9 outlets under ceased operations in 2023, and all 6 in each of 2024 and 2025. The exit counts on this page therefore include businesses that kept operating. Terminations (14, 14 and 16) are the largest exit category.

How much do All Dry franchise owners make? (Item 19)

Source: All Dry 2026 FDD, Item 19, PDF p. 44.

Item 19 of the 2026 FDD reports average Gross Sales, Operational Franchise Outlets operating within one to three Territories (Table 4) of $440,226 (2025 calendar year, 33 Operational Franchise Outlets that operated within one, two or three Territories during all of 2025; 13 (40%) were above the average). All Dry’s Item 19 reports sales but no profit, costs or owner pay. Rent, payroll, supplies, loan payments and Item 6 fees such as the royalty (7% of Gross Sales) come out of sales before an owner is paid, so these figures cannot show what an owner earns.

How long is the All Dry franchise agreement term?

Source: All Dry 2026 FDD, Item 17, PDF p. 35.

The standard All Dry franchise agreement runs 10 years.

Item 17 (PDF page 35): a 10-year term from the date of the franchise agreement. Row b allows two successor terms of 10 years each, and Item 6 describes the renewal fee the same way, but row c describes signing a successor agreement for an additional 5-year term. The record leaves the renewal length blank because the FDD states it two ways.

How long does it take to open an All Dry franchise? (Item 11)

Item 11 of the 2026 FDD states the time from signing the franchise agreement to opening: 30 to 90 days.
