What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Bumble Roofing's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, if training is conducted at a franchisee's location, the franchisee will incur specific costs. Bumble Roofing charges its then-current daily fees per trainer. As of the FDD's issuance date, this fee is $250 per trainer per day.
In addition to the daily trainer fee, the franchisee is also responsible for covering the travel, per diem, and lodging expenses for the Bumble Roofing trainers. These additional costs can vary depending on the distance traveled, the duration of the training, and the local costs of accommodation and meals.
This is in addition to the initial training that Bumble Roofing provides for up to three individuals at no charge. However, this complimentary training is typically conducted at a location chosen by Bumble Roofing, not at the franchisee's site. If a franchisee wants training at their own location, or needs supplemental training beyond the initial offering, these additional fees apply.
