The quintet of franchisees have opened new operations in Guildford, Ipswich, Birmingham, Wrexham and Worcester. With the growing demand for cost-effective home renovation solutions, Kitchen Makeovers aims to capitalise on this trend by expanding its services across the UK.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s been a strong start to the year, especially with these five excellent additions to the network,\u201d commented Will Frankling, co-founder of Kitchen Makeovers. \u201cThere\u2019s been a sharp increase in the financial outlay for home renovations recently, with average spending escalating from just over \u00a325,000 in 2022 to nearly \u00a330,000 in 2023<sup>1<\/sup>. It\u2019s because of this that home improvement companies that provide a more cost-effective solution are more in demand than ever.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur business model continues to appeal to prospects from all walks of life and it\u2019s great to see that our new franchisees have come from a diverse range of backgrounds and experiences. We are committed to supporting our franchisees every step of the way as they grow their businesses and make significant contributions to their local communities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Guy Clark of Kitchen Makeovers West Birmingham spent over two decades working in the hospitality industry as a restaurant manager before making the switch to franchising. \u201cIt was a rare break over the festive season with my family that ultimately led me to Kitchen Makeovers. I\u2019ve worked hard all my life, just to see others reap the benefits and wanted something where I could be in charge. I knew I wanted to run my own business, but I have to give credit to my mum for suggesting franchising to me. I didn\u2019t know too much about it all, but once I started researching different opportunities, I kept on coming back to Kitchen Makeovers. I\u2019ve only just finished my first full month since launching but my work-life balance is significantly better, being able to spend more time with my wife and two children has had a positive impact on all of us. I\u2019m convinced I made the right decision.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kitchen Makeovers prides itself on cost-effective products and excellent customer service, reflected in its average review score of 4.9\/5.0 on Trustist. To ensure they were fully prepared for the new role and to maintain the high standard of service, each new franchisee underwent three days of comprehensive training at the Harpenden Head Office, covering operations, finances, marketing and the product range.<\/p>\n<p>Former landscape gardener Dale Pellatt invested in his franchise, Kitchen Makeovers Ipswich, after a chance encounter at a networking event between his wife and Kitchen Makeovers Cambridge franchisee Colin Blackburn. After hearing Colin&#8217;s positive feedback regarding Kitchen Makeovers and doing his own research, Dale decided to enquire about a franchise.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI really did my due diligence when I first heard about Kitchen Makeovers,\u201d said Dale. \u201cI looked at the competition, the demand for their services and the cost investment involved. I was excited by what I found and that\u2019s when I made the decision to get in touch. Whilst it\u2019s still early days, I look forward to the benefits this new opportunity will provide me and my family. The brand has a strong reputation that I can build on. This move is not just about changing careers; it&#8217;s a chance to create something lasting and impactful in the community.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Will Frankling added, \u201cOur franchisees have a diverse range of employment backgrounds, and a home renovation experience isn\u2019t required. We look for franchisees who fit our culture, and providing great customer service is what we pride ourselves on. We ensure extensive training is provided so our franchisees are equipped to handle all aspects of kitchen remodelling with confidence and skill. At the heart of our mission is a commitment to transforming kitchen spaces as cost-effectively and hassle-free for our clients as possible.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This is a pivotal time for Kitchen Makeovers. With plans to continue this growth trajectory and add to a growing network of 29 franchisees throughout the second half of 2024, Will Frankling and the franchise support team have established the brand as the home renovation franchise investment opportunity of choice for prospects around the country.<\/p>\n<p><em><sup>1- Rated People, RATED PEOPLE HOME IMPROVEMENT TRENDS REPORT, 2023<\/sup><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Home improvement franchise Kitchen Makeovers continues to accelerate its growth with the addition of five new franchisees to its growing network.
