What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Bumble Roofing's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, if a franchisee requests training to occur at their location, Bumble Roofing charges a daily fee per trainer. The current fee is $250 per trainer per day. In addition to this daily fee, the franchisee is responsible for covering the travel, per diem, and lodging expenses for the trainer.
This on-site training fee applies when a franchisee needs additional training beyond the initial training provided for up to three individuals at no charge. It also applies if additional or replacement trainees attend future training courses but no courses are scheduled or no space is available in scheduled courses. In those cases, the standard training fee of $5,000 per trainee may be assessed instead.
Prospective Bumble Roofing franchisees should consider these costs when planning their budget, especially if they anticipate needing frequent on-site training or if they are located far from Bumble Roofing's primary training facilities, as travel and lodging costs could be significant.
