  • to be great with customers
  • some basic DIY competence

  • the ambition to grow your business

2. MANAGEMENT BUSINESS

To build a successful Access4Lofts management business you need:
  • to be a great communicator
  • ideally some management experience
  • ambition to grow a multi-van business
  • extra finance to invest in your team initially

The investment

To setup and establish your new business the initial investment is £29,950 + VAT, however, if you have £10,000 financing can be secured via many of the high street banks for the balance OR as we are a business approved for the Government backed Start-Up Scheme, you could qualify to borrow up to £25,000, without investing any of your own money; and this figure doubles if the business has two Directors.

We will provide you a detailed breakdown of where this money is spent, rest assured it is far better value than starting up on your own as an independent!

How we train and support you


As a franchisee, you will receive completely tailored ongoing support to help you on your path to reaching your goals. If you are practical, we support you on the business side and if you have business experience we train you on the practical side.

The Access4Lofts bespoke admin system is undoubtedly our unique selling point, it takes away the stress of admin and accounts, so you can focus on creating space for your customer and creating profit for you.

It has been built from the ground up and is the result of us working alongside a specialist programmer over several months to create an easy to use single system that streamlines our whole admin process. From taking the initial customer telephone enquiry, through to quotes, order confirmations and invoicing, our system automates the process, leaving you free from worry and stress about when you’re going to find time to type a quote and send it to a customer!

All our franchisees attend a 5 day residential training course held at our dedicated training facility in Devon.

You’ll be guided through health and safety issues and learn how to fit our full range of ladders, hatches and boarding and of course learn how to use the comprehensive set of tools you receive as part of the franchise package.

Regardless of the amount of training you receive, your first few jobs may be daunting, therefore, we follow the training with 2 days operational, on-site support so that we can observe, advise or just give you the moral support as you start your journey. We have an Operations Director who franchisees can call on for support and advice.

Access4Lofts Case Study: Petr Malik Solihull

Access4Lofts Image

Already self-employed but know you can achieve more? Partnering with us can not only give you the head start you need, but also the confidence to succeed.

Meet Petr Malik from Solihull, one of the latest franchisees to join our rapidly growing network.

Petr has spent much of his working life in the hospitality industry as head chef for a number of international brands. Six years ago, he moved to the UK and has been working as a handyman and maintenance contractor doing gardening, decorating, and odd jobs for a variety of clients.

A few years ago, Petr invested in a small scale cleaning franchise, so he has some experience of how the franchising model works and how effective it can be in supporting aspiring business owners to achieve their ambitions. During the last year, Petr decided he could do more and was ready to take his career to the next level with a more extensive business opportunity. Another franchise was the obvious choice.

“Franchising is a really good way to start a business.” Petr told us. “Access4Lofts, in particular, has a great setup and fantastic customer reviews. There’s plenty of work as there are so many old buildings with their lofts not being used properly, and so many people doing renovation work. A lot of people want to spend money on new insulation, too.”

While many businesses are experiencing uncertainty right now, the home renovation sector is certainly bucking the trend. A recent report from Rated People, the home improvement experts, showed that demand for renovation is up by 50% compared to pre-pandemic levels and the trend shows no sign of slowing. The various lockdowns changed the way people think about their homes, and rising interest rates are causing people to rethink moving home.

Together, these factors are prompting people to want to make more of the space in their homes, and that includes accessing spaces that were otherwise underused, such as their lofts. On top of that, rising energy costs are driving really high demand for insulation, and having good access for maintaining roofs and plumbing systems. All in all, this is a great time to get into this highly-rewarding industry!

With demand already so strong, it’s just a question of getting word out there that you can provide a superior service. We want to give you the best possible chance for success, so will even start marketing in your territory long before you open in order to generate your first leads.

“I have only just started, but I’m confident my new business will go really well. I already have 4 or 5 potential customers to see this week, and the same next week. As I have experience in maintenance and installations already, the only thing I wasn’t sure about was how to approach customers and the day-to-day running of the business, but the training took care of everything.”

Of course, training is just the beginning. Here at Access4Lofts, we understand that franchising is a two-way street, and so we are fully committed to continuing to support new franchisees like Petr throughout their partnership with us. They are very much in charge of their own businesses, but they can also count on us for advice and guidance at any time and will benefit from a dedicated operational support director.

We also do everything we can to help streamline their new business, with an extensive online knowledge hub and members area so they can access anything they need, from training and ops manuals through to marketing materials and accounts pro formas. After all, their success is our success!

“It’s still early days, but let’s talk again in a couple of months.” Petr recommended. ”I am sure I will have plenty of good news for you!”

Access4Lofts Testimonials
The training course was very professional and well planned. It was a good mix of classroom and practical and the manuals provided were easy to follow. I was made to feel part of the team from day one and at the end of the training I felt confident that I could do the job. I would say the training and ongoing support are fantastic
SAM (STAFFORD) FRANCHISEE
Having looked closely at several other franchises I knew immediately the Access4Lofts was head and shoulders above the rest. The whole process from initial phone call to securing my territory was relaxed, informative and there was absolutely no high pressure selling. The decision to invest in Access4Lofts was definitely the right one and I would highly recommend this franchise to others
Michael (GLASGOW SOUTH FRANCHISEE)
I would recommend this franchise to anyone. I have been involved in franchising for 10 years operating my own gardening franchise. I was looking for a franchise business that my son could take over and came across Access4Lofts. I could immediately see the potential and was impressed with the support and professionalism of the owners. The training, marketing and support has been exceptional which meant that I hit the ground running.
