About Screenmobile Franchise

Founded in 1980 by Monty M. “Pops” Walker and his two sons, Scott and Monty L. Walker.

They quickly realized there was a massive opportunity for an industry-leading mobile screen repair and installation business. Repairing and installing screens using a wooden tent trailer, based out of the family garage, they would be on the road, repairing, customizing and installing a variety of screens.

Pops’ wife Sharleen managed the Screenmobile office out of the spare bedroom- answering phones, booking jobs, managing schedules, and handling the finances. A one-woman support team!

With a reputation for quality, professionalism and mobility,

The Walkers expanded operations to Palm Springs in 1981, discovering that they were the only business to screen on-site, allowing for an efficient and timely service that wasn’t replicated elsewhere.

Realizing how vital the trailer was to their ability to be truly mobile, they upgraded to a larger, all-metal trailer, branded with the Screenmobile name. This trailer allowed Pops and his sons to repair any size screen and hold all their equipment, while serving as an approachable and effective mobile marketing tool.

The Walkers saw a significant increase in job requests from people approaching the trailer while the family was screening. These early successes laid the foundation for Screenmobile to become a nationally-known brand with an outstanding reputation, as well as a 100% Franchise Owner satisfaction rate- we think Pops would be proud!

How It Works

If you have no previous experience with the Screenmobile brand as a customer, you may be wondering how our one-of-a-kind window screening service works on a daily basis. Here’s our process, at a glance:

  1. Customer calls and sets an appointment.
  2. Franchise Owner and/or Field Technician arrive on time on the designated appointment date, assess the scope of work to be done, and provide customers with free estimates.
  3. Customer accepts estimate; Franchise Owner and/or Field Technician get to work measuring, manufacturing, and installing screens onsite, thanks to their mobile trailer!
  4. Work is typically completed in one visit; the Franchise Owner presents a service invoice to the satisfied customer and collects payment on the same day.

Franchise Owners only pay for the materials they use when it’s time to order new stock, so you never have to worry about high costs of operating a Screenmobile during slower business times. Low overhead costs that yield high potential returns on investment- That's the Screenmobile difference.

Why Own a Screenmobile?

The unparalleled value and convenience of our industry-leading, home-based business model gives Franchise Owners the ability to operate a simple, rewarding business with potential for high returns.

  • NO NATIONAL COMPETITION - We’re a nationally recognized brand, with a proprietary “mobile workshop” model that hasn't been replicated by any national competitors in nearly four decades.
  • SUCCESSFUL FRANCHISE CONCEPT - We have been in business since 1980 and have over 120 licenses open across 25+ states, so you could say our track record speaks for itself!
  • OUTSTANDING RETURN ON INVESTMENT - A low investment starting at $91,000, an Average Gross Sales of $271,278, and 39% net margins. It’s tough to find many other franchise industries with an ROI like that!
  • LOW OVERHEAD & QUICK RAMP-UP TIME - Since Screenmobile is home-based, there’s no need for expensive real estate or large build-outs. This allows our Franchise Owners to launch their business within 8-12 weeks after signing an agreement!
  • OWNER-CONTROLLED SCHEDULE - Though our business hours are from 7 AM to 5 PM, that does not mean Franchise Owners are going to have to work 10-hour days! As a Franchise Owner, you’ll have the ability to set your own schedule, giving you a flexible, healthy work-life balance.
  • FAMILY VALUES - As a family-owned company, Screenmobile places a high value on family. In fact, we treat our owners like members of our own family, which accounts for our 100% Franchise Owner satisfaction rate!
  • UNTAPPED POTENTIAL - If there’s such a thing as too many customers and jobs to complete, this is the biggest problem most Screenmobile Franchise Owners face! Thanks to the combination of an ever-growing amount of screens across America and the outstanding reputation we have built, Franchise Owners’ phones are poised to be ringing off the hook with business.
  • ABILITY TO BUILD AN EMPIRE - Our Executive Ownership Track allows the option to start with just one truck and trailer, and quickly scale. Whether you choose to own a fleet of Screenmobile truck/trailer combos, or you’re satisfied with operating just one, the option to purchase multiple Screenmobile licenses gives you the chance to maximize your potential revenue.

100% FRANCHISE OWNER SATISFACTION

40 YEARS IN OPERATION

99% RENEWAL RATE

Expert support when you need it most. We treat you like family. Because to us, you are.

We can say something that not many other franchises are able to claim- out of over 90 Screenmobile Franchise Owners, ALL of them report complete satisfaction with us! This outstanding 100% satisfaction rate is partly due to how we run our business like a family.

As if our amazing satisfaction rate wasn’t impressive enough, 99 percent of Screenmobile Franchise Owners renew their franchise license once it hits its 10-year expiration date. That means nearly ALL Owners who have been with us for a decade or more are so pleased with our franchise that they’re ready to commit to another ten years in the Screenmobile family

Family-owned since 1980, we provide Franchise Owners with a level of support that just isn’t found in most home improvement franchises.

Our corporate team helps new Franchise Owners learn the ropes through our industry-leading Screen School training program, and then helps them establish themselves in their community with expert marketing and field support, ongoing training, and more.

Even if you have no previous experience in the screen repair or home services industry, it’s not a problem. Thanks to the extensive training program offered by our Corporate Support Team, learning how to manufacture, install, and repair Screenmobile products is a lot easier than you think!

The first stop for new Franchise Owners is Screen School, a 10-day training program that offers a comprehensive, hands-on overview of every aspect of screening. Situated at our Corporate Headquarters in California, minutes away from Palm Springs, Screen School has optimized the traditional classroom to focus on a more practical education process, combining 40 hours of classroom instruction time with 40 hours of on-the-job training simulation at our “Screen House” training and production center. This center simulates an ‘In-Field’ environment that allows our experienced instructors to teach our new Franchise Owners everything they need to know in order to succeed in their new business. 

Our 10-day Screen School training program also teaches our Franchise Owners the fundamentals of Screenmobile business operations; administration, marketing, sales, screen production and installation.

Ongoing Training

Your training at Screen School is just the beginning of your franchise education at Screenmobile. Upon graduation, you will begin a 13-week ‘Fast Start’ Program that will include a weekly one-hour video call with your Support Manager from the Corporate Team.

The Fast Start Program will aid you as you begin your journey as a Screenmobile Franchise Owner and ensure you have a quick and successful ramp-up. We’ll equip you with all the knowledge and skills needed to become a master Screenmobile Franchise Owner. 

Beyond Screen School and the Fast Start Program, you will find support by attending annual conventions and regional meetings, and 24/7 access to our online modules, as well as reaching out to fellow Franchise Owners via our Google Groups system. Of course, you can always contact the Corporate Office for any assistance you may need. Joining a franchise system affords you the support you need, when you need it most!

Screenmobile is a family and they treat their Franchise Owners like family.
