There are different types of cleaning franchises that you can choose from. Each one has its own pros and cons, so it's important to find the one that best fits your skills and experience.

Domestic cleaning franchise

Domestic cleaning franchises are businesses that provide cleaning services to residential customers. Domestic cleaning is a relatively new industry, but it has been growing rapidly in recent years. The average domestic cleaning franchise costs £5,000 - £50,000 and usually requires between some start-up capital to get started.

Domestic cleaning franchises typically service homes and apartments of their clients by providing regular deep cleans, dusting & vacuuming, laundry services and more on an ongoing basis. The majority of domestic cleaning franchise owners work with their own staff rather than hiring subcontractors (which means they're able to keep costs down). The Time For You franchise is very different in their approach as our don't have staff and the business owners never do any cleaning themselves.

Commercial cleaning franchise

What is a commercial cleaning franchise?

A commercial cleaning franchise is an opportunity to own, operate and grow a business that provides cleaning services for businesses like offices, factories and other commercial premises.

The franchisee cleans the property of the client in exchange for payment. The owner gets to set his or her own hours, manage employees and grow their business at their own pace. Most commercial cleaning franchises get paid in arrears and by invoice so carry a great deal of risk.

Carpet and upholstery cleaning franchise

If you love the smell of fresh-clean carpet, then a carpet and upholstery cleaning franchise might be right for you. The pros of this business include:

  • High demand for services among homeowners and businesses. People want their carpets to look clean and smell good, especially if they have pets or children running around on them all day long!
  • Low startup costs compared to other types of cleaning franchises. You don't need much equipment or training to get started with this type of business; all you really need is some basic supplies (like shampoo) and maybe some training materials from the company itself before opening up shop in your town's local market area where there aren't already any competitors servicing customers' needs quite yet! As long as there are people living nearby who need their homes cleaned regularly (and let's face it: there always will be), then chances are good that yours will thrive once launched successfully into operation mode within those geographic boundaries where everyone lives happily ever after... until next week anyway :)

Window cleaning franchise

Your window cleaning business could be one of many types of franchises. Window cleaning is a popular service, and there are many different systems for doing it. You can choose to start your own business or franchise with a company that already exists.

If you want to start your own window cleaning business, you'll need some money for equipment and supplies. You may also want an office space and vehicles if you plan on hiring employees or subcontracting work out. In general though, this type of franchise is fairly low cost as far as franchises go because it doesn't require too much start-up capital; however, there are still costs associated with owning any kind of small business (licences/insurance).

If you want to become part of an existing franchise network rather than starting from scratch yourself then some companies will provide training programs before opening up shop so they can ensure quality standards across their entire system-this way customers know exactly what kind of experience they'll get regardless which franchisee provides them service!
