Our mission is to promote a healthy, family-oriented lifestyle to our clients while pioneering and leading the untapped barbecue cleaning industry. Bar-B-Clean started in 2012 out of necessity. Our founder needed his grill cleaned and there was only one competitor in the market. Rather than calling the competitor, he capitalized on an opportunity and started his own grill cleaning business. After finding success, he franchised the business in 2014 and hasn’t looked back since. Bar-B-Clean is a mobile home service business where we provide a service that customers want done, but don't want to do themselves - similar to window cleaning or carpet cleaning. Anybody with a backyard barbecue is a prospective customer. If grills haven’t been professionally cleaned within six months, cancer-causing carcinogens left behind by old food & rat droppings cause real health risks. HOA’s, apartment complexes, office buildings, hotels, and Airbnb's also offer great B2B opportunities for our franchisees. Our customers are typically in the middle to upper-class demographic, so we know it is important to set ourselves apart from our mom-and-pop competitors. We do that through our proprietary steam cleaning system and custom Stainless-Steel Polish, bringing instant credibility and brand awareness.
