SUCCESS FORMULA
We’re ready to succeed together, one deck at a time.
Our success formula is simple — and it all starts with teamwork. After all, your success is ours too.
Our proven formula includes three main components:
Head Office Support
- All franchisees receive hands-on support from our head office team. Our expert support team has all the skills needed to assist you when necessary, including sales, building, product knowledge, marketing, accounting, training, hiring, and business procedures.
Research and Development
- Our experienced management team, franchisees, and deck builders are constantly learning new techniques and best business practices which are shared throughout our franchise network. In addition, our excellent reputation and industry position allows us access to new decking products before they are available at retail locations.
Exit Strategies
- A growing franchise network can rapidly build equity for a franchisee in their territory. We have experienced rapid appreciation of the value of franchise territories in some areas and assisted franchisees who wish to take advantage of the one-time capital gains exemption for selling a small business up to $750,000.00 tax free in Canada.

SALES PHILOSOPHY
It’s easy to sell the best.
Hickory Dickory Deck franchisees act as consultants to prospective clients. Our low-pressure sales approach is backed by having the best to offer by way of design, product, warranty, customer service, completion date and price.
Through over 30 years of deck-building and franchise experience we have built a proven, professional sales system that is easy-to-replicate for a new franchise.
Our leading sales system is fully outlined through professional training manuals and videos. As a franchise owner, you’ll participate in a sales course, ongoing training, and be connected with a full-time franchise manager to assist you with sales throughout the year.
