How we work
At CrestClean, we provide consistent, reliable, quality commercial cleaning services through our network of franchised owner-operators. This model combines the dedication of an owner-operated business with the structure, systems, and support of a corporate organisation.
Our franchisees are responsible for the operational side of their businesses, making their own decisions about how to best service their contracts. CrestClean will take care of the administration for you. We invoice your customers, collect payments, and ensure franchisees are paid twice a month for fulfilled contracts - guaranteed! CrestClean also prepares and files GST returns, prepares annual accounts and files your tax return to keep your business compliant. This means you can enjoy regular contract revenue without the usual hassles and challenges of running your own business. Plus, no sales or selling are required, so you can fully focus on providing excellent service.
Why choose a CrestClean franchise?
At CrestClean, we’re committed to supporting our franchise owners to grow successful businesses alongside their customers.
Building a successful franchise with us opens doors to achieving financial goals in life, like home ownership, investments, and owning rental properties. In fact, 67% of our franchisees now own a family home.
We ensure that every franchise owner is well-prepared for the contracts they service through comprehensive training, including induction, Health and Safety, practical cleaning skills, and annual up-skilling. This ongoing training and skills development provides a clear pathway for growth, enabling franchisees to expand their businesses and achieve even greater success.
