Rydel Roofing
Rydel is a modern, scalable home exterior franchise built for people who want to own a real business—not just buy a job. We specialize in roofing, siding, and windows & doors, and we're transforming a traditionally outdated and disorganized construction industry with a model that prioritizes professionalism, predictability, and long-term growth. Founded in Canada, Rydel was created to offer homeowners a more transparent, high-quality experience—while giving ambitious franchisees a proven pathway to scale.
Our system is designed from day one to support business owners in going far beyond the role of a technician. We don't just hand you a playbook—we help you build a high-margin business with real infrastructure behind it. 
From the moment you join, you'll benefit from an unmatched support team and business toolkit. That includes:
- Centralized estimating department (you'll never price a roof yourself)
- Dedicated call centre to book and manage appointments
- In-house marketing team to drive leads
- Full-service admin and accounting support
- Ongoing coaching from three dedicated business coaches
- Recruiting systems to help you find, train, and scale with the right people
Our franchise model is built on systems—not guesswork. With over a month of hands-on training, no roofing or construction experience is required. We've helped franchisees collectively generate over $50 million in revenue by helping them focus on the highest-leverage parts of business ownership: leadership, hiring, customer relationships, and growth. Here's what the journey typically looks like:
- Year 1: Most owners operate lean, with 2–4 subcontracted crews. They generate ~$900,000 in sales and take home around $140,000 in profit.
- Year 2: Owners begin hiring salespeople and production managers. They shift into a leadership role, scale faster, and often break the $1M–$2M revenue mark.
- Year 3: Owners often expand into new service lines like siding, windows, and doors—leveraging the same backend systems to grow their business well past $3M.
- Year 5+: With the right execution, we support owners in scaling to $5M - $10M in revenue.
This is more than just a business opportunity. Rydel is a clear, supported path to true business ownership in a recession-resistant industry—without the high capital or risk of building something from scratch.
We've built the systems. You bring the ambition.
