With over 60 years of expertise in property care, Prokil gives aspiring entrepreneurs a path to business success and control over your career.

With 93% of UK franchise partners reporting profitability, franchising isn’t just a solution—it’s a smart investment. Keep reading to discover how the Prokil franchise business model works and why it’s a game-changer for aspiring business owners.

01

What Is a Franchise Business?

A franchise business model allows individuals to operate under an established brand. This way, they can benefit from the franchisor’s proven systems, marketing strategies, and industry expertise. This collaborative approach reduces risks for franchise partners. It gives those interested a far better chance to succeed than starting an independent business.

Understanding the Basics

Franchising is vital to the UK economy. According to the British Franchise Association, it generates over £17 billion a year and supports 700,000 jobs. By joining a franchise, you gain access to a proven system, reducing the risks of starting your own business.

Why Choose Prokil?

Prokil takes the benefits of franchising a step further with industry-specific expertise. We provide services like damp proofing, timber preservation, and mould removal. Our franchise partners tap into a stable market to deliver key services to homeowners and commercial clients.

Why Prokil's Franchise Model Stands Out

Prokil’s 60-year reputation provides franchise partners with credibility and immediate customer trust. Given the high demand for property care, Prokil is the best choice for business owners.

Proven Track Record

Prokil’s success speaks for itself. Over the decades, the brand has gained a reputation for reliability, excellence, and top-tier customer service. Franchise partners can use this reputation to gain credibility and a competitive edge in their territories.

Recession-Proof Industry

Property care services, like damp proofing, timber preservation and mould removal are in high demand. Franchise partners, therefore, have a steady stream of customers. Even in challenging economic climates, the need for these services does not waver. So, this makes our industry a secure investment.

Comprehensive Support

From day one, franchise partners receive comprehensive support tailored to their success. We provide training, marketing resources, and ongoing operational guidance to ensure partners thrive. With tools, industry-leading materials, and a network of experts at their disposal, you needn’t worry. Prokil’s franchise partners have everything they need to build a successful business.

How Does the Prokil Franchise Model Work?

At its core, Prokil’s franchise model is built around three pillars: comprehensive training, ongoing support, and exclusive territory rights. Together, these create a foundation for sustainable success.

Training and Support

Prokil’s franchise partners undergo a three-month training program. It covers technical skills, business operations, and customer service. The program also includes earning a Certified Surveyor in Remedial Treatments (CSRT) qualification and a provisional membership with the Property Care Association (PCA). With professional training and ongoing support, franchise partners are well-equipped to thrive.

Better yet, our support doesn’t end after launch. Franchise partners benefit from:

  • On-Site Visits: Guidance tailored to your unique challenges.
  • Regular Updates: Access to resources and industry insights via Prokil’s CRM system.
  • Marketing Assistance: In-house SEO and PPC campaigns to drive customer acquisition.

Exclusive Territory Rights

Each Prokil franchise partner operates in a designated area of approximately 159,828 households. Our regional business opportunities ensure a fair, focused market with minimal franchise competition.

Addressing Common Misconceptions About Franchising

Franchising is an excellent opportunity for aspiring business owners. However, certain misconceptions can create hesitation. Let’s clarify some of these misunderstandings to give you a clearer picture of what franchising with Prokil really means.

First, while experience can help, Prokil’s training equips newcomers with all the skills needed for success. Passion and dedication are key factors for thriving in the property care industry.

Another misunderstanding is that franchise partners lack control over their businesses. At Prokil, franchise partners operate independently. Therefore, you make day-to-day decisions while benefiting from the framework of a proven system. With Prokil’s support, which is always available, you’ll be free to grow your business in your exclusive territory.

Some believe franchises are prohibitively expensive. Prokil’s tiered investment structure ensures accessibility for a wide range of entrepreneurs. With tools, training, and marketing included, you’re set up for success from day one, making the cost worthwhile. For more on funding, visit the UK Government’s Business Finance Guide.
