Lincoln, NE (July 27, 2010) – Re-Bath, the world's largest bathroom remodeler, has received World-Class Franchise® Certification by the Franchise Research Institute® and FranSurvey®.

The recognition comes after an independent survey by the Franchise Research Institute of more than 78% of the Re-Bath franchisees to determine their level of satisfaction with their franchisor and other feedback on the Re-Bath franchise system.

The survey asked Re-Bath franchise owners to rate their franchisor through a series of questions regarding overall growth potential, quality, support, communication and other areas.

The results, according to Johnson, show that Re-Bath has an enthusiastic, energetic franchisee community of which 98 percent graded the ‘quality of products and/or services’ received from the franchisor as positive.

According to the FranSurvey system, Re-Bath also achieved a positive rating from 91 percent of its franchise network for ‘ongoing training and support.

“It takes a quality franchise system to achieve this high level of results,” added Johnson.
