Myhome plc



myhome is the UK's leading premium residential cleaning franchise. Our franchise operation has been developed and perfected over 10 years and serves 1000s of customers.

Choosing the right partner is essential

Going into business for yourself is a big step. Having a partner with experience and expertise can make all the difference

At the heart of the myhome franchise programme is our pilot operation. Originally developed by Unilever, this has been used to create, test and develop all the operating systems necessary for turnkey business.

In addition, myhome is a quoted Public Company and an accredited Member of the British Franchise Association.

So, with myhome as your franchise partner, you can be confident of success.

myhome franchise partners are not cleaners. They are talented individuals who manage and build a supremely efficient residential cleaning business. They want to run their own business, but do not want to be in business on their own. They see the value of working with a proven business format.

myhome's success is built on our unique management systems. These breakdown the whole process of operating and growing a business into simple, manageable steps to give predictable and profitable results.

With a myhome franchise, you are combining your management skills with our experience and expertise to build your own successful business - a great partnership!

A rapidly growing market

Business is booming in the home services industry

Residential housecleaning has become one of the fastest growing industries in the UK. With 2.7 million housholds spending around £11 billion every year on domestic help, the UK market for Home Services is large and growing. Demand has quadrupled over the past ten years (Daily Express, 19 April 2004) and is predicted to double over the next three years alone.

The growth has been driven by the dramatic increase in two-salary households. The lifestyle of these 'cash-rich, time-poor' households means they have little inclination for housework, and the changing role of mothers and home life have also contributed to the skyrocketing demand for our services.

Using myhome is no longer a luxury but a necessity

myhome believes that a good business works for you... rather than you working for it!
