Tile installation project flow can be seasonal and is susceptible to building trends. The halt of new buildings in 2008-2009 brought this home for many in the building trades professions.
As builders, tile installers, and fabricators struggled with minimal new building permits being pulled, this only translated to a speed bump for MARBLELIFE, who is focused on restoring and maintaining the installed base of hard surfaces.
Consider this: A decline in building permits simply translates into slower growth of our installed base to maintain, but it still grows.
Adding a MARBLELIFE franchise operation to your tile installation business would enable you to transition your sales efforts from builders to restoration and maintenance markets according to market conditions.
Furthermore, every time you install a floor, you have built a client who will need downstream maintenance support. Your list of installed clients represents an excellent starting point for your restoration and maintenance service business.
