According to Precision Door Service's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the company's definite-lived intangibles consist of assets like tradenames, franchise relationships, national accounts, customer relationships, developed technology, franchise rights and copyrights. These assets have a limited useful life, ranging from 1 to 20 years, and are amortized over that period. The total net amount of definite-lived intangibles was reported as $1,325,738.

As of the financial statements provided, the net amount for indefinite-lived intangibles (domain name) is $1,314. It is important to note that the impairment expense of $10,695 was recorded in the year ended December 31, 2023, and none was recorded in the year ended December 31, 2024 for definite lived intangible assets.
