Why Choose Prokil?
Below, we’ve broken down the key reasons you should invest in Prokil as your franchise of choice, as well as the wealth of benefits you’ll receive once you join up.
Well-Established Brand Name
By providing high-quality solutions to our customers’ property concerns, we’ve built up an unrivalled reputation across the UK. Our services are always in high demand, no matter the time of year, and are renowned for their reliability, effectiveness, and affordability.
By taking on the Prokil name, you’ll get the benefits of a pre-established reputation and an edge over your lesser-known competition.
Proven Track Record
We’ve achieved continuous growth since first establishing Prokil, having expanded from a single branch to over twenty across the South.
We utilise a unique framework for guiding our Franchise Partners through the steps needed to grow their organisation. You’ll be able to build your business off a business model that has proven effective time and time again, giving you peace of mind that you’re on the right track to success.
Pre-Existing Customer Base
Prokil have a loyal customer base numbering in the thousands. Being a Franchise Partner gives you access to customers who already recognise and trust your brand, saving you from having to promote to an entirely cold audience.
We provide services to a diverse range of customers, including:
-
Private homeowners - Estate and letting agents
- Landlords
- Commercial venue owners
- Local authorities
Secure Industry
No matter their age or type, all properties need maintenance eventually. The demand for property care services is largely unaffected by economic trends, making it a sound industry with huge growth potential.
Fantastic Earning Potential
Becoming a Franchise Partner opens the door to some impressive earning potential. Most of our partners manage to secure six-figure incomes in their very first year, which is made possible by our extensive training, continuous support, and the solid reputation of our brand.
Simon, owner of Prokil Brighton: “We’re now turning over an excess of £650,000 a year. My earnings have doubled, and that’s largely down to the franchise network giving me that support.”

In-Depth Business and Industry Training
Before your franchise opens for business, we’ll provide you with all the training you need to become an expert in the field.
During the three months of personalised training we provide, we’ll teach you everything you need to know about the property care sector, effective business management, and the best ways to start growing your franchise.
The first month will be a combination of Head Office-based work and on-the-job training sessions. They’ll be run by our expert surveyors, who have considerable experience within the industry. After approximately eight weeks, you’ll begin working in your chosen area alongside the support of Prokil Head Office staff.
Even if your initial experience in the property care sector is limited, your training will ensure you’re left with total confidence in your ability to kickstart your business and start making profit.
Ongoing Support
Once you’ve completed your training, we’ll continue to support and consult with you regularly. We’ll suggest areas for improvement, guide you through any challenges you’re facing, and bring you up to speed with all the latest developments in the industry.
We can support you through a range of mediums, including:
- On-site visits
- Telephone calls direct to you
- Updates shared with you via the CRM central IT system
Nationally Recognised Qualification
As part of the Prokil franchise package, we include the examination fees for becoming a Certified Surveyor in Remedial Treatments (CSRT).
The CSRT is a nationally recognised qualification awarded by the Property Care Association (PCA) for surveyors in the remedial property industry. It’s made up of four modules:
- Legal and health and safety aspects of remedial treatment
- The identification and remedial treatment of infested timber
- The identification and remedial treatment of dampness
You’ll receive the qualification after you complete a training course and pass an examination. It will give you the expertise you need to be a specialist damp and timber surveyor, and give you access to other courses that will help you grow your knowledge further.
