What You Gain by Converting

You've worked hard to build your name as a trusted plumber in your community. If you're like many plumbing business owners, you may have hit a wall. You're doing everything yourself, chasing new business, struggling to find great techs, and trying to keep profits steady while the market changes around you.

For owners facing these challenges, converting your plumbing business to a Plumbing Paramedics franchise offers a powerful way to transform and scale your existing business. Franchising with Plumbing Paramedics allows business owners to leverage our established business model, brand identity, and operational procedures, which enhances efficiency and profitability.

Adjust your pricing with confidence. Our actively managed pricing system allows you to respond to market changes without guessing. Flat-rate, up-front pricing makes it easier for techs to present options and for customers to say yes.

Group Buying Power

Get access to national vendor discounts through our partnerships with companies like Ferguson. Lower your costs on materials and equipment, and increase your margins.

Integrated Technology

Manage your business with daily/weekly/monthly P&L snapshots. Integrated technology strengthens service delivery, streamlines real-time inventory management, enables tablet-based payments, payroll processing, and more.

Where We Started

Plumbing Paramedics was founded in 2011 by Ryan Carpenter, a second-generation plumber who grew up working in his parents' plumbing and heating business in Michigan. He saw how hard small business owners worked, and how often they faced challenges alone. Determined to change that, Ryan later launched Plumbing Heating Paramedics in Noblesville, IN with a commitment to integrity, transparency, and a better customer experience. What began as a one-van operation quickly gained traction thanks to a values-driven approach and strong local reputation.

Where We're Going

Today, Plumbing Paramedics is part of Threshold Brands™, a growing network of trusted home service companies including sister company Heating + Air Paramedics, and other home services brands like Granite Garage Floors, MaidPro, Men In Kilts, Sir Grout, USA Insulation, Mold Medics, Miracle Method, and Pestmaster. With national support, cutting-edge systems, and a focus on strategic expansion, we're building a smarter path to business ownership—one that gives franchisees the tools to grow stronger, scale faster, and stand out in their markets.
