One of the sectors that has recently proven to be very popular is that of the Repair & Maintenance franchise sector. This sector has opened up an opportunity to all those that classified themselves as being ‘good with their hands’ but didn’t match up to your standard corporate position for whatever reason that may be. The Repair and Maintenance franchise sector offers varying opportunities from both domestic and commercial maintenance to vehicle and specialist repairs. As previously mentioned, franchisees within this sector are expected to contain some level of skillset that they will utilise within the running of their chosen franchise. Repair and Maintenance franchise opportunities will initially be launched as ‘job franchises’, whereby the franchisee is very much hands on and will in some cases price up quotes and then deliver the work as well. As the franchise grows and matures this will naturally progress into more of a management franchise opportunity that will naturally see staff members add, additional vans added, and the franchisee will oversee the running of this operation from the franchise head office. Of course, there will be cases where the franchisee loves what he’s doing so much that he will still opt to be on the road. Repair & Maintenance franchise opportunities within the UK can include the following;
Repair and maintenance franchises opportunities do tend to be priced at the lower investment level, with most of the franchise fee going towards the lease of a van and equipment.

Utilising your skills isn’t essential, it does help of course, but the franchisor should be on hand to help with top franchise training, experience, a refined business model (with track record) and the reputation of a nationally recognised brand to help you succeed with your business. Not only is this sector seen as being rather recession-proof, but the demand for your services are hugely impressive! Just look at how many buildings there within your area, all of these will at some stage require maintaining or freshening up.
This sector may not be held in the same esteem as the fast food sector, but don’t allow that to put you off as the potential earnings can be lucrative. There is a healthy income to be made from damages and improvements. To put this in to perspective, £21.8 Billion was spent on service and repair costs on cars within the UK in 2016.
If you are good with your hands, a property maintenance franchise could be right for you.
