Company Overviews

About The Gutter Guys

The Gutter Guys was founded by Michael Williams in 1988. Michael had been working in the restaurant and hospitality business for the previous fifteen years and needed gutters and downspouts on his new home. Amazed at the total lack of professionalism in the gutter companies he encountered while getting gutter installation estimates, he decided to start The Gutter Guys. Using his extensive knowledge of and passion for customer service, Michael's company now serves more than 300,000 happy customers throughout four mid-Atlantic states: Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey and Pennsylvania.

Not only did Michael develop the recipe to satisfy his customers, he also found the right recipe to recruit and retain quality employees. While discussing how to utilize and reward skilled employees with his business advisor and CPA Chuck Johnson, the idea of franchising came up. Not franchising in the normal sense, but as a way to expand the geographic area the business served and give employees an opportunity to become self employed while remaining with The Gutter Guys.

Chuck was so instrumental in helping to develop a system to give The Gutter Guys' employees a chance to become franchise owners that he was invited to join the company. Chuck accepted and sold his well-established accounting practice to join The Gutters Guys full time. Since that time, we have helped twelve of our employees become self employed franchisees of The Gutter Guys.

About Crop & Drop Counter Tops

As a Crop & Drop Counter Tops franchisee, you will effectively penetrate multiple markets your competition can only dream of. The reason is simple... price. You will basically be offering the same products as a granite fabrication plant at a fraction of the cost. Not only will you cater to an established industry, but you'll also be selling to a market normally outside the reach of the solid surface fabricator - the ordinary home owner. Research has proven that home owners with average incomes would purchase granite if it were more affordable. With Crop & Drop Counter Tops, that obstacle is removed. Your price advantage permits you to sell at up to 50% below your competition and still maintain your profit margins!

This opportunity will only be available for a short time. We are only interested in establishing a few franchises per area, so contact us today to get started! Remember, previous experience is not required - our program was developed to train and certify selected individuals with or without experience.
