The 2026 Cost of Doing Business (CODB) Survey is officially open!

Now in its third year, this financial benchmarking study helps restoration businesses better understand the numbers that drive performance, profitability, and long-term stability.

The survey collects anonymous financial data from restoration companies of all sizes, from independent startups to large, multi-operational businesses, and contributes to a report co-published by RIA and KnowHow.

This year’s survey will be administered and analyzed with SIS International Research, a global research firm.

Why participate?

Because better benchmarks help restoration owners:

- Measure performance against the industry
- Identify profitability opportunities
- Optimize operations
- Make stronger financial decisions
- Understand where their business stands

If you want better data for the restoration industry, your input matters.
