Fastest growing wood refinishing franchise in the nation is connecting with family-driven entrepreneurs

N-Hance, the fastest wood refinishing franchise in the nation, is a business that many families thrive in – just take it from Dennis Pace.

Pace was an early adopter of the N-Hance business opportunity, opening in Spokane, Washington in 2001, the same year N-Hance was founded. With his family, he owns seven territories across Washington. Pace initially owned a Chem-Dry carpet cleaning franchise, the sister company to N-Hance.

 

Since he already knew and trusted Harris Research Inc., the parent company of N-Hance and of the most respected franchisors in the home services space, it wasnโ€™t too large of a leap to run a franchise with both brands. He was familiar with the level of support HRI offers its franchises and he also saw a need for a wood refinishing business in his area,

โ€œFor years, customers asked him what we could do for their wood floors,โ€ explains, Adam Blake, Paceโ€™s son-in-law, who co-runs the business.

Blake is one of the three sons running the business, and he stresses that the success of his family-owned business is the result of setting up clear, defined roles when working with family to avoid stepping on toes. This division has helped them create a strong, and unified team and family. Every member of a family has unique skill-sets and interests, and if you foster a culture of collaboration and teamwork, a family can leverage the talents of their family members to make a powerful company.

Blake does most of the administrative and marketing work. Before joining the family business, Blake served as a Marine for five years and then studied business with an emphasis in entrepreneurial studies. Eric Cox, Dennisโ€™ other son-in-law, manages the sales side of the business, giving customers estimates. He brings with him the knowledge he obtained from working in real-estate before. Jeffery Pace joined the business from the beginning. He runs the operations and trains all employees on N-Hanceโ€™s proprietary processes and products.

N-Hance of Spokane has been in business for over sixteen years, and they have become one of N-Hanceโ€™s top-performing franchises. Blake attributes much of that success to working with his family.

โ€œEveryone is more than willing to put it more effort and work harder,โ€ Blake says. โ€œThey are not just working hard for their own family, but for their brotherโ€™s family, their sister-in-lawโ€™s family. They want everyone to be doing wellโ€.

N-Hanceโ€™s endless custom color options, proprietary products, and processes are quickly making N-Hance Wood Refinishing a household name. N-Hance features a quick-dry process at an affordable price point with low VOC, little mess and no odors.

โ€œWe provide unmatched service. We can take a customerโ€™s kitchen and make it beautiful,โ€ Blake says. โ€œWe can make it a showpiece in their home, a place where they can invite friends and family.โ€

Since starting the business in 2004, Dennis Pace has taken a step back from the business. He still helps on jobs, and provides back-up, but the business is primarily run by his sons. He has created a thriving business and a legacy that not only filled a market gap in his community, but also provides for his sons, daughters, and grandkids.
