Mr. Appliance

Mr. Appliance Franchise Opportunity

Mr. Appliance is one of the leading home and commercial appliance repair franchise systems in North America and part of the Neighborly network. Founded in 1996, Mr. Appliance built its brand on providing professional, dependable appliance repair services using a values-driven approach centered on customer respect, transparent pricing, and exceptional workmanship.

Unlike independent appliance repair technicians who often struggle with consistent branding, scheduling, and customer communication, Mr. Appliance franchise owners benefit from an established national brand, proven operating systems, and Neighborly's back-office support. The business model serves both residential and light commercial customers, with recurring demand driven by the essential nature of appliances in every home and business.

The franchise is structured for owner-operators and multi-unit investors—owners start by managing a small team of technicians, then scale into multi-unit operations across territories.
