When you’re deciding whether or not to become a franchisee, you want to know the numbers involved. Granite Transformations offers various business models with varying levels of growth. The success of your business will be down to you, but you can, potentially, generate revenues of between £400,000 to £600,000 in year 1. By year 3 it is not uncommon to hit the magic £1m annual turnover!
Our Training & Support:
At Granite Transformations we have a simple and easy to understand week-long induction course. In this week you’ll learn about the office-based aspects of running the franchise, and then it’s straight into the hands-on portion of the training; including sessions with our support and development team, at your own facility.
Our technical team will spend two weeks with you as the showroom is fitted out too and our ongoing support is there as and when you need it.
Who is ideal for Granite Transformations?
You don't need to have any experience in the home improvement, DIY or kitchen fitting arena, but you will ideally come from a professional background and be confident, organised and experienced in leading and motivating your own team; goal-orientated; an effective project manager; driven; ambitious and good with people.
The Return on Your Investment…
You will only need to have £35,000 in liquid capital to start your business. Our franchise fee is £28,700 + VAT and the funds needed to open your fabrication workshop, showroom and for working capital can be funded by up to 70% by banks/third party lenders and / or Government Loan schemes. (Subject to their usual credit assessment.)
Most other franchise opportunities also do not offer you the ability to expand to other products and service areas as easily as we do. All you need is a little creativity and desire, we'll help with the rest.
Your Exclusive Territory
You will have exclusive rights to sell Granite Transformations products in your territory which comprises around 200,000 residential houses, across multiple postcodes. You will be able to build a name, and reputation, for quality home improvements with a customer base that cannot go elsewhere for your product. In the event you’d like to expand further, other territories can be reserved for future growth too.

Post Pandemic: Business Resales are more popular!
Franchising has long been one of the safest and most reliable ways to start your own business but over the last year, we’ve seen a big rise in the number of people who are buying established franchises instead of opting for a start-up. So, why is this, and could it be the right choice for you too?
The pandemic caused a lot of people to rethink their careers. Franchising has always been a huge draw for people who want to break away from the daily grind and become their own boss, but now we are seeing a lot of high-end business owners and company directors seizing the opportunity too. Only, they’re not coming in at entry level – they’re buying franchises that have already been running for years. Some want to find a better work-life balance, or perhaps relocate away from big cities (another huge post-pandemic trend!), whereas others want to pursue a career they have a growing passion for – like home renovations!
Sometimes it’s even all of the above.
So, if this sounds a bit like you, perhaps you are considering cashing in on your current business and striking out for pastures new? Business resales aren’t cheap, however. You can expect to be paying upwards on 10 times as much compared to the traditional franchising route, so why is it so appealing to people in your position?
Reduced risk & guaranteed income
By purchasing a resale, you may have a much higher initial outlay, but you’re also jumping straight into a business which is already up and running and turning a profit. It has proven it can work by operating for a number of years and has already overcome the challenges faced by new businesses. With access to many years of trading history, you can also reliably predict profits, growth and costs for your own financial planning.
The groundwork is already done
Even with the reputation and brand of a successful franchise behind you, it can take time to build up a business and get word out about what you can offer. Not so with a resale – you’ll be able to immediately benefit from high brand awareness in the local area, as well as customer recommendations and referrals.
You’ll also already have a working team in place to deliver your service. Experienced personnel who know exactly how to get the job done to the highest standards. An established workshop and showroom will also be part of the deal!
A springboard to future growth
As an experienced businessman or woman, especially if you have great people skills and management expertise, you’ll no doubt see the potential for growing the business far beyond what was left to you by the previous owner. You will not only be able to put your own mark on the business but also use your advanced skillset to take it to the next level. By coming into an established business, you don’t need to spend time on getting it up and running but can instead focus on maximising its growth. With a franchise like Granite & TREND Transformations which is constantly innovating new products and services, you’ll be perfectly placed to tap into new revenue streams.
As Granite & TREND Transformations has been operating as a franchise for more than 25 years, some of our partners have been with us since the very beginning. We’re very proud that some of our franchisees have continued working with us for 15 – 20 years, but that does inevitably mean that some are now coming up for retirement, or have decided to relocate. We’re sad to say goodbye to old friends but that does mean an opportunity could open up for you!

We had a great first year and this has been the catalyst for us to expand. Our first 12 months trading turnover was over £400k, we’ve exceeded our projected business plan by 18% and we employ 2 fitters, 2 fabricators and 1 full-time equivalent in our garden centre showroom. This year we will be creating a showroom within our factory site plus we have recently opened a second garden centre showroom in our new Liverpool territory.
Granite & TREND just get it. They bent over backwards to do what they could when they could, to give us everything we needed. They even helped us get the funding for leasing which we needed. Everyone at head office is awesome – they all genuinely want the best for their franchisees. I have nothing but positive feelings towards Danny and his team. I am really glad we went down this route.
