Get A Grip Chattanooga has a new owner. Nick DelPapa has joined the nationwide network of Get A Grip Franchising, taking over the existing franchise that has been transforming the resurfacing industry in the greater Chattanooga area. Get A Grip Resurfacing repairs and resurfaces cracked fiberglass bathtubs, scratched or stained porcelain tile and even Formica, laminate or cultured marble kitchen countertops.  

Mr. DelPapa spent time in Albuquerque, N.M., where Get A Grip is headquartered, to learn more about Get A Grip’s exclusive products and techniques. Unlike other training programs, Get A Grip puts its franchisees directly into the field, training them on actual customer jobs. This is where franchisees learn to resurface practically every surface in the home: countertops, showers, tubs, tile, and cabinets. 

“I was familiar with Get A Grip’s products and business model because my father owns the successful Nashville franchise, and my brother and friend have been working there for years," said Mr. DelPapa.  "When the Chattanooga franchise became available, I immediately knew that this was an opportunity I didn’t want to miss.  I know that the transformation that occurs with Get A Grip products on dated countertops and bathrooms - without tearing them out - is second to none. Plus, the Get A Grip business model is turnkey with excellent support from the headquarters. There’s a lot of potential to grow in Chattanooga.”
