Re-Bath Expands into NYC Boroughs

January 20, 2024

Re-Bath, the nation’s largest complete bathroom remodeling franchise, has announced a multi-unit signed agreement in New York that will cover Brooklyn, Bronx, Manhattan, Queens, and Staten Island. Re-Bath is actively expanding its presence along the East Coast and is set to venture into even more new markets within the state. With large retailer partnerships contributing to the brand’s growth and market share gains driving nearly a 31% YOY increase in systemwide sales, prospective franchisees are flocking to the Re-Bath franchise opportunity.

Spearheading this massive growth across the Empire State are longtime New York residents, Robert Citrangola and Grace Campbell. While the duo is new to Re-Bath, they bring 30 years of combined franchise experience in the remodeling and restoration industry. Citrangola is a third-generation franchise owner at Servpro, and has established a reputation as an industry leader in Manhattan and the surrounding areas. In 2011, he founded Commercial Duct Cleaning Corp and went on to become a senior partner at Servpro of Midtown Manhattan. Campbell served as his right hand for operations at Servpro, and they plan on carrying the same dynamic into this new journey as Re-Bath multi-unit franchisees.

“With 15 years of experience in franchising and a passion for the remodeling and restoration industry, we are eager to bring our expertise to five new untapped markets,” said Robert Citrangola. “We are excited about the opportunity to transform homes and exceed the expectations of homeowners in these territories while creating spaces that they will cherish for years to come. Our dedication to delivering top-notch remodeling services aligns perfectly with Re-Bath’s reputation for excellence.”

With development surging across the region, Re-Bath is looking for entrepreneurs who are ready to stake their claim in the booming home improvement industry. In March of 2023, the brand announced a two-territory signed agreement that would service Suffolk and Westchester counties along with an additional signed agreement for Buffalo, New York in October. With an additional four territories available in upstate New York, company leadership has identified the state as a prime area for growth, in addition to Vermont and Maine.

“Robert and Grace are a great addition to our system, bringing with them vast industry and market experience,” said Brad Hillier, CEO of Re-Bath. “Their experience in dealing with a large volume of customers paired with their knowledge of the community sets them up for huge success as Re-Bath franchisees. For those looking to join a growing franchise brand, upstate New York is a hot market with available territories.”
