5 Advantages of Running a Carpet Cleaning Franchise

Share:
Published on 11/11/2021 16:00:00

There are lots of advantages to running a franchise business. Whether you’re looking to be your own boss, enjoy some exciting profits or work in a demand-heavy sector of the economy, running a carpet cleaning franchise could be the perfect opportunity for you.


With so many people looking to return to the office, cleaners and cleaning franchises are coming back into their own. If you’ve been thinking about starting your own carpet cleaning franchise, but aren’t quite sure whether this is the right challenge for you, this article is for you. 

There are lots of advantages to running your own carpet cleaning franchise, so read on to discover some of the biggest benefits of running your own cleaning business. 

Why start a carpet cleaning business in 2021?

Although the cleaning industry has been impacted by the pandemic, it’s important to remember how big this sector still is. In 2019, the cleaning sector accounted for a whopping £7billion and employed nearly half a million people [UK News Group]. With more and more people looking to get back to the office, it’s clear that the right ambitious franchisees have plenty of room for scalability and growth. 

Cleaning franchises have proven their worth over the last two years, and with specialist cleaning techniques more sought-after than ever before, this can be a very profitable franchising opportunity.

Advantages of running a carpet cleaning franchise 

1. Demand

As alluded to above, cleaners are some of the most in-demand professionals in the country at the moment. Cleaning and hygiene are right at the top of the UK public’s priorities, and the industry is seeing the rich rewards of this change in attitudes. 

In spite of the challenging circumstances, cleaning remains one of the ten most important industries in the country according to the British Council Cleaning’s 2021 report, highlighting the immense profitability and resilience these franchise businesses have. While it can’t be said for many businesses in the UK, running a carpet cleaning business has never been more financially rewarding than it is today. 

The report also testifies to the change in public attitudes which has put cleaning and hygiene at the top of the agenda and brought widespread recognition for the vital work of the sector’s previously invisible workforce.

2. New Technology

Partly driven by the new realities of working face-to-face, the carpet cleaning sector is seeing some exciting new tech innovations that help franchises go about their work much more efficiently. Far from replacing in-person cleaners, these technologies are guaranteed to help cleaners deliver a better service. 

You’ll still need to assess which cleaning devices or robots are the right ones for the job – as not all robots suit all kinds of carpets and rugs – but, without so much as even being in someone’s house, you can deliver an excellent cleaning service. 

And it’s not just robots. Even when manual work is required, many of the chemicals and equipment involved are sourced far more sustainably today than they have been in the past. So, whether it’s automated assistants or less-damaging detergents, this is a highly innovative business to run.

3. Training and Support

When you’re running a carpet cleaning business, you’re never alone. Both before and after opening your cleaning franchise, you’ll have plenty of dedicated training and support to get you into the right shape. 

From gaining practical working experience, to training on everything from marketing to sales and point of sales operations, you’ll be a part of a nationally recognised franchise business with high standards for all its franchisees. With the support of dedicated tutors and mentors, you’ll learn all the ins and outs of your new trade from experienced individuals. 

And if that’s not enough, don’t be afraid to reach out to your franchisee network. You can learn practical experience, gain useful insights, and ask for help from other franchisees who are in exactly the same situation as you.

4. Branding

Where lots of smaller and independent businesses will need to invest heavily into creating a trusted brand and reputation, you’ll have that from day one. Whether it’s marketing, logos, existing customers – or simply the vitally important word-of-mouth marketing that big businesses get – you’ll be starting from scratch with a great reputation. 

Being able to immediately tap into this branding from the signing of your franchise agreement is without doubt one of the biggest advantages to running a carpet cleaning franchise. Not interested in starting your own business from scratch? Franchising could be for you.

5. Financial options

If funding your business is what concerns you the most, you’ll be pleased to hear that there is a lot of financial flexibility available to you. On the one hand, starting your own cleaning business is highly affordable. Consider franchises such as Zero Dry Time or Cleanhome, who both have franchising fees well below the national average. 

On top of this, you can also cash in on the beneficial financial rates that starting a franchise affords you. Because franchise businesses are known for having better survival rates, many major banks will lend up to 70% of your start-up costs. If the financial cost of starting your own business puts you off, rest assured there’s plenty of flexibility for you here. 

Start your own carpet cleaning franchise today

Starting your own cleaning franchise is guaranteed to deliver two things: profitability and satisfaction. With the help of new technologies, financial backing, and extensive training and support, you’ll be able to start your own industry-leading business in a matter of weeks. So, if you’ve been thinking about starting your own franchise, there’s never been a better time than now.

But the cleaning sector is vast, and if carpet cleaning doesn’t quite appeal to you, you might want to consider the domestic cleaning and commercial cleaning sectors. These sectors are equally affordable, profitable and exciting, with the only major difference being the clients and customers you’ll be working with. For a complete list of other franchising opportunities, have a look at the UK franchise directory.
