The future of cleaning franchises is here…!
A revolution in surface cleaning; from carpets to hard floors, tiles to upholstery. Our clever cleaning system leaves zero chemical residue, healthier for you, your employees, your clients and our planet.
Surface cleaning is big business, with a growing focus on cleanliness in our health-conscious world, both in domestic and commercial environments – but no one wants to be around harsh chemicals anymore. That’s where your Zerorez® business can clean up!
Harnessing Technology to Improve Operations
Our technology cleans with Zr™ Water – a powerful cleaner that is non-toxic and completely safe for people, pets, and the planet. Without leaving behind a chemical residue, surfaces are left feeling like new and stay cleaner for longer, scientifically proven.
Once a customer has experienced a Zerorez clean they won’t go back – recommending friends, colleagues and family. It’s a rewarding business, delighting and amazing customers daily.
Could you have found your perfect business model?
- Professionalising a typically traditional and poorly served sector
- More environmentally friendly cleaning with ionised ‘Zr water’
- Build a large base of repeat clients, providing more income security
- Strong avg. transaction values of £125 with opportunity for upselling
- Highly profitable business model proven over decades
Start with your first van and scale-up
Start small, learn all elements of the operation and as your customer base grows build your team of loyal technicians, an office team and then add further services and territories.
You’ll need to invest £25,000 capital, plus further financing of £25,000 which is available from the government Start Up Loan scheme, subject to status (this is an unsecured personal loan).
Build a multi-territory, multi-service cleaning business
We’ve made multiple millionaire franchisees in the USA* since launching back in 2001 and now we are here in the UK, with an experienced British franchise support team based out of our UK HQ near North London.
Your investment will establish a solid foundation to be a profitable business after your first year. From there, your business should scale year-on-yeas as the repeat customer base grows and you shift focus to other area of the business.
Profit margins across the franchise network after your first year are typically between 15-20%.
*These figures are based on real franchisee financial performance and offered to demonstrate the historical franchisee achievements. Please note that Zerorez does not guarantee any future earnings potential
Two powerful things about being a Zerorez franchisee is the relationship with other franchisees and the cleaning power of Zr Clean™️. The other franchisees are willing to help you be successful, and the Zr Clean™️ is part of the ‘magic’ that helps customers choose Zerorez each time they need their carpets and living surfaces cleaned.
Building my Zerorez Franchise (like building any new business), has required a lot of effort, yet has been the most satisfying experience I have ever had! Like any great journey, there have been many people, both in and out of the Zerorez family, who have helped guide me along the way. As Robert Frost said, ‘Two paths diverged…and I took one less traveled and that has made all the difference.’ I love owning a Zerorez Franchise.

Our most successful franchises are the most passionate about customer service. They really care about the experience provided by their team and measure their success in review scores and recommendations, staff retention and monthly profitability!

Zerorez launches franchising opportunities across the UK
We are enormously excited to announce the official launch of Zerorez franchising in the UK!
This follows the huge success of Zerorez in Watford - our first international franchise outside of North America - which opened its doors in early 2023.
The demand for our premium carpet, tile and surface cleaning services in Watford and the surrounding areas since opening has been overwhelming, as has the customer feedback we've received.
This has clearly illustrated that Zerorez, America's most-loved carpet cleaning company, is perfectly suited to meet the needs of customers across the UK.
And we want ambitious entrepreneurs like you to meet that demand.
You can discover lots about what you need to know by contacting us to receive our franchise opportunity prospectus. In the meantime, we've answered some of your big initial questions below.
What is Zerorez?
Zerorez was founded in the US in 1993 with a mission to revolutionise residential and commercial carpet cleaning.
Our founders' innovative thinking led to the creation of our proprietary cleaning technology, Zr Water.
This breakthrough electrolysed cleaning solution instantly set Zerorez apart from traditional methods - offering superior results without the use of any harsh chemicals whatsoever. And by leaving absolutely zero residue (Zerorez!) behind, surfaces stayed cleaner for longer.
How does a Zerorez franchise work?
We have designed our franchises to be simple to run. You will start out by providing services from a single van, which is fully equipped with all the Zerorez tools and technology needed to carry out the very best cleans.
One of the best things about a Zerorez franchise is that you do not need any experience in either carpet cleaning or business management to get started. Our expert franchise support team provides comprehensive training and ongoing support to ensure you're fully prepared to run a successful Zerorez franchise.
What is the Zerorez business model?
In short, it's simple, scalable, and highly profitable. As mentioned, you will start with a single van, allowing you to get hands-on and master the Zerorez process whilst keeping your overheads low.
As your experience and client base grows over time, you can expand your operations by adding more vans, services, and eventually a team of operators.
This scalable model is perfect for ambitious entrepreneurs who want to grow a high-value business at their own pace.

- Huge sector: In 2019, the UK cleaning industry was valued at £58 billion and has registered year-on-year growth since 2010
