As the American economy continues to rebound, more and more consumers are making the decision to update their homes. From remodeling efforts to interior upgrades, homeowners are once again willing to spend money on their old or outdated properties. And Miracle Method, the nation’s largest professional bathroom and kitchen refinishing franchise, is capitalizing on that spike in demand.

Miracle Method continues to set the pace for record-breaking growth—the brand added 10 new territories in 2016, ultimately seeing its system-wide revenue reach the $61 million mark. That’s a double digit increase in the brand’s sales over the year before, showing strong, upward momentum that’s expected to continue in 2017. Another trend that’s set to continue for the brand this year is actively engaging more commercial clients—right now, 42 percent of Miracle Method’s total revenue comes from commercial accounts. That’s up from 17 percent five years ago, proving that from college campuses, hospitals, military bases, hotels and other commercial businesses, it’s clear that there’s no shortage in demand for top quality remodeling services at an affordable price.

“Demand for our services is at an all-time high, which puts us in a unique position to capitalize on our strong momentum. We experienced an incredibly successful 2016, but we’re confident that we’ll be able to outperform ourselves this year. The Miracle Method team is actively expanding across the country, meaning that 2017 will be another milestone year for our brand,” said John Tubiolo, Vice President of Franchise Sales and Development for Miracle Method.

The brand’s growth potential is already being realized on a daily basis through Miracle Method’s rapidly growing network of passionate franchisees. In 2016, nearly three quarters of the brand’s local owners increased their sales over the year before. And more franchisees are being recognized as top performers.

Five of Miracle Method’s franchises earned a spot in the brand’s Platinum Club, marking units that brought in $2 million in sales or more. Another 15 are included in Miracle Method’s Gold Club for 2016, signaling units that experienced between $1 million and $1,999,999 in sales. The brand’s Silver Club, honoring franchise locations that brought in between $600,000 and $999,999 last year, is also made up of 18 units, with an additional 30 joining the ranks of Miracle Method’s Bronze Club, which includes units that secured $300,000 to $599,999 in sales.

The franchisees behind those successful units—as well as those who have improved the most—are being recognized for their accomplishments at the brand’s upcoming convention in Dallas, Texas from April 20-23.

“We’re looking forward to honoring all of our franchisees at this year’s annual conference. While we’re always in contact with our local owners to ensure that the lines of communication are always open between our corporate and franchisee teams, it’s great to come together in person to celebrate our successes and think ahead to the future,” said Erin Gilliam, Marketing Manager for Miracle Method. “This conference will ultimately set the tone for the year ahead, and help us position ourselves to break even more records throughout the rest of 2017.”

With 25 franchise agreements expected to be signed by the end of the year—and a targeted focus on expanding in key development markets like Nevada, Florida, California, Nebraska, Texas and Illinois—it’s clear that Miracle Method is on pace to make its development goals a reality this year. And between its strong support system and affordable initial investment that ranges from $82,125 to $136,850, the brand is making it simple for prospective franchisees to realize their dreams of business ownership.

“This industry is really picking up speed, and Miracle Method provides us with the tools and resources that we need to make the most of it. From our proprietary products to our team of expert employees, we go above and beyond to make each customer experience a positive one,” said Justin Jurek, a Miracle Method franchisee based in the Twin Cities. “That’s why the response that we’ve seen so far has been overwhelmingly positive. And it’s also what will continue to fuel our success and expansion efforts down the road.”

No matter what city you’re in, standing out in a competitive real estate market can be a challenge. Fortunately, companies like Miracle Method are making it easier for owners and buyers alike to buy and sell the perfect home. And now, thanks to a new local franchisee, the Queens Astoria area in New York City has access to the brand’s expert bath and kitchen refinishing services—making the pursuit of a dream home a goal that’s well within reach.

Eddie Moleros, a native to the Queens Astoria region, recently opened Miracle Method of Middle Village to serve the area that he calls home. Eddie studied at Queens College and worked there for 10 years before pursing small business ownership with a yogurt shop and a food distribution business. After seeing small business success in various industries, Moleros searched for additional opportunities that could bring great value to the Queens community. That is when he was introduced to Miracle Method, the largest professional bath and kitchen refinishing company in North America.

“I did thorough research for different business opportunities and Miracle Method immediately piqued my interest,” Moleros said. “It was appealing since the home remodeling industry is rapidly growing. There is no service like this in the Astoria area and it something that is truly needed.”

Miracle Method prides itself on the fact that its franchisees live in the markets they serve, working as independent small business owners who deliver quality work and superior service. This localized approach is very successful as clients are more receptive of a familiar face combined with a strong franchise brand in making changes in their home.

Updates made by Miracle Method bring affordable repair and restoration to all types of bathtubs, showers, vanities, ceramic tile and countertops, helping homeowners and commercial facilities save thousands over traditional replacement costs. From transforming kitchen countertops to look like new again, to a beautifully refinished bathtub, Miracle Method’s refinishing process adds significant appeal and value to your home or facility.

In the ever-competitive real estate market, the potential to make slight changes to increase property value can be extremely appealing for current sellers, or even those planning to sell their homes later down the road but want to enjoy their home now too. Moleros is hopeful that this same appeal will resonate with Queens locals.

“There are over 10 million people in this market and there is truly nothing like Miracle Method here,” Moleros said. “There is a huge demand for our refinishing services. It is an extremely niche industry for this market–you don’t see anyone doing refinishing of this level in the area. Using our proprietary bonding agent we are able to deliver beautiful results and a more durable finish that any other refinisher.”

Moleros’ new Miracle Method business in Queens comes as the brand continues its focus on growth throughout New York. The state is currently a wide-open target for development, and Miracle Method is hoping to identify motivated franchise partners like Moleros, who are interested in operating a Miracle Method franchise in their home town or region. With three Miracle Method locations in the state already, John Tubiolo, the Vice President of Franchise Sales and Development, recognizes the opportunity for new franchises to meet the ever-increasing demand for our affordable refinishing services.

“There are so many outdated facilities, homes, and fixtures in the market and it is very expensive to renovate, especially in New York City,” Tubiolo said “Refinishing existing fixtures in place saves time, space in landfills and costs.”

For potential franchisees, on average the investment range for a new Miracle Method franchise is between $85,000 and $120,000. The timing to begin involvement with the brand could not be better, as Miracle Method has carried 2016’s record breaking momentum into 2017, with new location openings in multiple previously untapped markets. To date, Miracle Method has more than 140 franchisees in North America.

“Per-square-foot in New York City, it is one of the most expensive pieces of real estate to rehab or do any kind of home renovations,” Tubiolo said. “When people can affordably go in and do some updating, that makes a lot more sense, whether it is flipping or upgrading what they already have. That’s why we find that having a brand like Miracle Method in an area like this could really go a long way for homeowners and buyers.”
