What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Bumble Roofing's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the franchise agreement can be modified upon renewal.
Specifically, Section S in Item 17 outlines the modification of the agreement. It states that during the franchise term, modifications require mutual written agreement, but the Operating Manual is subject to change. Importantly, modifications are permitted when the franchise agreement is up for renewal.
This means that when a Bumble Roofing franchisee seeks to renew their agreement, the terms and conditions can be renegotiated and altered, providing both the franchisee and franchisor an opportunity to update the agreement to reflect current business conditions or legal requirements. However, any modifications must be mutually agreed upon in writing.
