Elite Kitchen Makeovers

Build a Six-Figure Home-Based Kitchen Makeover Business with Customers Booked for You

Elite Kitchen Makeovers offers the opportunity to run a premium, home-based kitchen makeover business backed by the UK’s largest manufacturer of made-to-measure kitchen doors and quartz worktops.

The business has completed more than 30,000 kitchens and is now opening new franchise areas across the UK. Franchisees work from home, with consumer advertising managed centrally and qualified design appointments booked directly into their diary.

The franchise fee is £15,000 + VAT, with around £10,000 of working capital retained in the franchisee’s own account, plus travel and accommodation costs for four weeks of training.

A Proven Model with Central Lead Generation

Unlike many franchise models where owners are responsible for finding their own customers, Elite Kitchen Makeovers runs the advertising centrally.

Before launch, £10,000 of the franchise fee is spent advertising the franchisee’s own area, helping generate appointments while training is still underway.

Franchisees receive a large exclusive territory, with enquiries from that area allocated to them.

The supplied information states that the franchise fee is typically recovered in month two of trading and describes the opportunity as capable of becoming a six-figure business for its owner. Individual results will depend on sales performance and business activity.

A Simple, Premium Customer Proposition

Rather than replacing an entire kitchen, Elite Kitchen Makeovers transforms the existing space by replacing doors, worktops, sinks, taps and handles while retaining the existing units.

Most projects take around two or three days and avoid the disruption of major building work.

Doors and worktops are made to measure in the company’s own UK factories and delivered using its own fleet.

The franchisee’s role is focused on customer consultation, design and sales rather than fitting kitchens.

Comprehensive Support from Lead to Installation

Franchisees receive four weeks of initial training.

Two weeks are spent at the company’s factories in Swansea and Hull, covering products, the full range and the design appointment process. A further two weeks are spent attending real customer appointments in the franchisee’s own area with a mentor.

Ongoing support includes:

• Centrally managed advertising
• A dedicated franchise manager
• Quoting, ordering and customer-management systems
• Manufacturing and delivery support
• Aftersales support
• Training on finding and managing local fitters

No previous kitchen-industry experience is required.

What Does the Franchisee Do?

“When Elite Kitchen Makeovers offered the Wakefield area, I did not need convincing about the kitchens. What I looked at was where the work would come from, and the answer was that they find the customers and put the consultations in my diary. That is the part that made it a business rather than a job. I have never picked up a tool and I do not intend to. The doors and worktops are made at the factory, my fitters do the fitting, and every kitchen I sell is building something that belongs to me.”

— Dan Smith, Elite Kitchen Makeovers Wakefield

A typical day is built around pre-booked customer appointments.

Franchisees visit customers at home, discuss their kitchen, select doors and worktops using samples, and price the project through the company system.

Between appointments, they may follow up proposals, arrange local fitters, coordinate confirmed jobs, receive materials into storage and check projects in progress.

Franchisees do not personally fit kitchens.
