I signed up with this cleaning franchise hoping to make some money this was back in march 2013 its already almost july and they haven’t offered me any extra cleaning accounts.
very sad and when you call them they are always away from there phone or out of their office for fews days give me a break, if your looking to sign up with any franchise do not choose this one despite what you read on the web or on their website or anywhere else they under bid any contract you get
so lets say I clean 2 days a week which I didn’t ask for in the beginning I wanted a fulltime account which is 5 days. anyways getting on with the story my total per month and this is no lie is only 240 dollars I get paid on the 15th every month thats it. for a investment of 900 dollars really thats the best this franchise can do
they are total scammers don’t care about there franchise owners at all their all about themselves so anyone out there run far away from this franchise BUYER BEWARE.

I spoke to the local Buildingstars Guy in White Plains, NY (Westchester County, directly north of the Bronx, NYC) and after emails, he refused to give me the franchise contract so I could read it prior to going to his office to get the hard sell !
So, finally, I told him in an email that until I got that document and either sample or actual customer contracts there would be no meeting. So far, no documents . . .
However, Edward writes that he is happy with his BuildingStars franchise:
Edward says:
I am a current franchise owner in Phoenix. I bought my franchise about a year ago from Buildingstars. I have been very Happy with the business I’ve received in the last year. The manager of the branch is fair and he stands up for his franchise owners and makes sure that everyone is happy. He will not allow us to do a bad cleaning job, though. If we don’t do a good job more than once we lose the account.
My wife and I have not lost a single account in the last year because we care about the way We do the job.
I really like this company. At first, we started with just a couple accounts part-time. Now we both average about $15 an hour.
When we get to a higher level we can hire employees and our money will go up. It just depends on how fast we can grow our business.

The above claims are utterly distorted. No one can take away Marty's good works, his kindness, his fairness, and his integrity. I encourage anyone to call his employees and they will let anyone know. Our telephone number is 704.909.7561.
I signed up with this lousy company in st.louis missouri.Despite my good work and compliments from customers ,i was forced to remain in the technician Stage for eight years and denied upward mobility.i abandoned them from frustrations after hide-and-seek games when i asked for more business.I sensed discrimination,exploitation,dishonesty and a great uncaring attitude disquised in fake smiles and compliments.The owner,a snobbish fat-cat hardly acknoledges you as you sit at the receptionist to see their equally snobbish and elusive managers.
This is a disgusting company to work for there is a complete lack of communication....when you request more buildings no one will get back with you.....they want you to renew your contract but they raise all the fees you'd think if the contract is being renewed there would be some kind of discount......you work hard and they take most all the money.....more like pimping than anything else.
My sister-in-law has a cleaning franchisee and works like a dog. It's not easy owing a franchise, especially since you have to pay a franchisee fee. Perhaps you should consider the unfranchised business? I will be more than happy to share that with you.
I had a strange gut feeling before considering this business for a friend and really regret I did sign on to this business. As others stated they don't return your calls of concern, and will not provide pay statements; if they were a honest business these statements would be automatically provided to you.
I have not sign up this company. Looked fake in the pop up. And really at a cheap price. If it sounds to good to be true it most likely is. I bet they run their scam out of Nigeria with USA phone numbers.
Besides call the better business bureau!
I have read all of the reviews and comments about Buildingstars and tell everyone out there this, 95% or more are from internet trolls posting like they were with Buildingstars, when the truth is they are other scamming clraning companies. How do I know this, well its simple, the reviews are not accurate with how buildingstars is operated, so its easy to point out a lie if the contents of the posts is not even the same as the real way its ran...lol. If anyone is truly considering buildingstars, look into it for yourself. Ask question, get current franchise references. This way you arent being scammed into not growing with a real company.
Phoenix is horrible. Chris Wagner is horrible. The company sucks. Very unhappy. They sold us a dream n we bought it, now were in debt. They keep charging accounts we no longer clean for services not rendered. Please dont do it...
Thanks for saving me money. I was just getting ready to look into them because of the low start up.I'm glad I looked further. It pays to do research.
Stay away from the one in Charlotte NC! I was excited with my husband back in March of 2018 , when we pay up front to start this business, it is July of 2018 and we have not heard from them back, we try calling them and nothing! They just kept our money and it was ridiculous when they try to offer us a site that was 1 hour away from our area to clean. They knew from the beginning to help us get a location in our area. Since we couldn’t accept the first offer in March, they decided to forget about us and refused to refund our money.
