A special incentive to the first people to join our UK network: a fully fitted £70,000 van and equipment provided as part of your initial investment. Why? Our vision is to be the biggest, and we want you to get off to the fastest possible start.

 

 

Why customers love Zerorez (and why you will too)

You’ve never seen clean like this – and neither have your customers. At the heart of this business is Zr™ Water, our patented, chemical-free cleaning technology that transforms carpets, hard floors, upholstery and more. 

No sticky residues. No harsh detergents. Just astonishing results that keep homes cleaner for longer. It’s not just greener; it’s better. 

And it’s better for you too, working in a non-toxic environment.

The first time someone experiences a Zerorez clean, they’re amazed. The second time, they tell their friends. That’s how you grow a service business.

 

“Building my Zerorez franchise has required a lot of effort, yet has been the most satisfying experience I have ever had.”

Steve Colton, Zerorez Franchisee

Anthony Holmes, Zerorez Franchisee

 

Changing cleaning for good

Zerorez was founded in 1993 in the USA by two entrepreneurs who believed there had to be a better way to clean carpets – one that was safer, more effective, and didn’t leave sticky soap residues behind.

They created Zr™ Water, a non-toxic cleaning solution that delivered astonishing results with zero chemical residue. That innovation sparked something bigger and in 2001, Zerorez began franchising, becoming a top-rated brand with over 200,000 5-star reviews. 

In 2023, Zerorez crossed the Atlantic and launched its first UK site in Watford, proving that the appetite for a better clean was just as strong here. That success now paves the way for nationwide growth, with opportunities for you to be part of the UK rollout of a proven global brand.

Home Improvement Franchises

The UK DIY market alone was forecast to be worth over £8.3bn in 2017 so the home improvement market in the UK is a huge opportunity for anyone interested in the sector.

So what sort of home improvement franchises are available? Some of the different types of home improvement franchises include;

  • Granite worktops and other granite sheets for kitchen and bathroom renovations
  • Locksmith franchises
  • Guttering & roofing
  • Disaster recover, fire, flood etc
  • Drive way construction and cleaning

As more and more pressure is put on governments and local authority to build more new homes this will no doubt increase demand for the above for both the new home build market and ongoing for renovation and repair works. Many people seeking this sort of opportunity may already have a trade and industry experience and wish to work for themselves but with the backing of a franchise brand to help with new business generation and any existing contractual business locally but all franchises usually offer full training and support so dependant on the home improvement franchise this could be a way for someone to change direction.

As with any business opportunity or business purchase you need to take professional advice and carry out due diligence before you invest.
