NATIONWIDE CLEANERS FRANCHISE REVIEWS

Nationwide cleaners review. Laurence in Spain. 04 December 2025

Having purchased the franchise in October 2013, I can say that Peter has been very helpful and honest in all matters pertaining to the franchise.
I have previously had 4 other franchises over the years, all of which have turned out to be much less than promised; franchisors, having taken your money, often show little support or interest in your progress.
The advantage of this franchise is that you have total control and therefore do not need to depend on the franchisor's input.
In my case, as a semi-retired person living mostly in Spain, I wanted a business that was scalable and which could be run from almost any location including Spain and France.
All you need is a laptop and a mobile; I run the business on a paperless basis.
I typically work around 12 hours per week with about 90 registered clients, which fits in well with my lifestyle.

Tristan in Staffordshire is the social media expert for Nationwide Cleaners. With his specialist knowledge of applying advertising for clients on sites like Facebook and Nextdoor, he has achieved a steady flow of new enquiries.
He is ready to help new franchisees navigate the complexity of social media specifically for domestic cleaning which necessitates substantial skill and experience.
He also utilises our other sources of advertising. These include leaflets (which are often subsidised by other businesses paying us to deliver them such as restaurants, gardeners etc. via our national leaflet distribution business) and an external website which is top ranked in Google.
Nice reviews from happy clients are often described as the best use of social media and Nationwide Cleaners has many of those both locally for individual franchisees and nationally.

Alex. Nationwide Cleaners Franchise review.

Things are going really well and I am really genuinely enjoying myself. Have had quite a few payments in and starting to take on more cleaners now. Made a few mistakes by being eager but I will definitely not make them again! Had a few more payments come in since the last email and almost turned over £1,000 in my first month, so I am really excited! I have given the other franchisees a text on Whatsapp to introduce myself and they have added me to the group chat. I will contact the top franchisees as much as possible! I have put up adverts for Ipswich and Stowmarket and had two enquiries already! So I will be calling them up today to screen them, very exciting! Thank you for all your help and support. Alex.

Nationwide Cleaners franchise review. London resale.

“I took over an existing franchise 4 months ago and while it has been very challenging to hit the ground running, it has been a worthwhile investment. With the support of Peter and other franchisees, I have learnt how to manage this business quickly and effectively. Although it was hard work to start and there is still a lot more to learn, I believe there is huge potential with this company. I am looking forward to the future and growing this business.”

Nationwide Cleaners franchise review. Edinburgh.

"I was looking for a business to run while initially continuing in my profession and Nationwide Cleaners ticked all the right boxes. Being part of a successful franchise is a great benefit, and the Nationwide Cleaners business model is perfect for me as it allows me to build the business at my own pace. The training and documentation is clear and detailed, and Peter is always on hand to help and provide advice on any issues. I spoke with other franchisees who were very supportive and positive about the business which gave me confidence that I was making the right choice."

Nationwide Cleaners Franchise Review London

“I have been a franchisee of Nationwide Cleaners for 5 years now. Being in business has allowed me to receive a good additional income whilst I could continue working in my profession.
Peter really made it easy to start by breaking down what needs to be done step-by-step. Whenever I had a problem in the business, Peter was always able to give me a good advice.
I have benefited a lot from meeting other franchisees as well as the internal forum. As I have never run a business before this was perfect for me. Within a few weeks of starting out, I started signing up customers and receiving money in the bank. In my opinion, this is a great opportunity and I can certainly recommend it others. Michael.”

Attila (Essex) Franchise review of Nationwide Cleaners

“I was looking for a flexible work from home business which can be even run from abroad. It was important to be affordable at the same time with a recurrent monthly income. Nationwide Cleaners ticks all the boxes.
After a year of extensive research and talking to the top franchisee and 2 other existing franchisees I was convinced.
The business plan is very detailed and professionally laid out but it is easy to follow.
Also, the territory is twice as big as with other cleaning franchises to maximize your chance for higher earnings. Very pleased with the low monthly overheads and to run it beside my day job until ready to quit.
Work is needed like in any other business but with Peter's help and experience you will succeed. I do recommend to check out Nationwide Cleaners franchise if you are looking for a reliable company to work with.
I wish I had found this company earlier.”

Nationwide Cleaners Franchise Review Staffordshire.

“Just approaching the first 100 customers ..... and the leaflet business is very busy (100,000 going out this month), so it is all very positive.  Nationwide Cleaners Staffordshire”
He is now so busy in conjunction with his day job as a waiter that he is looking at hiring a part-time administrator to run most of his business for him. A family member has been helping so far.

Nationwide Cleaners Franchise Review North London

“I invested in a Nationwide Cleaners franchise in London and operated it for several years with success.
I had many clients, cleaners and leaflet delivery orders. I sold the business as my husband and I decided to move out of London in order to afford a decent house.
I would definitely recommend it to anyone who is prepared to follow the tried and tested system and is motivated to do their best. The support was very good from head office and other top franchisees.
One piece of advice I would certainly give to any perspective Nationwide Cleaners franchisee is to listen to Peter Munro. He is very experienced in this field and always very helpful!
I can’t recommend Nationwide Cleaners highly enough! Thanks for the biggest opportunity and experience which I had working with professionals like Peter and Alex. Albena.”

Nationwide Cleaners Franchise Review. Tarun, Hertfordshire.

“Having spent 22 years in the health sector, I wanted to try a new enterprise where I could be my own boss and control my destiny. I looked into the prospect of Franchising and explored various possibilities. It was at this juncture that I stumbled upon Nationwide Cleaners and was attracted to the no-nonsense style of their literature and their business model. My appointments with Peter Munro, the founder of Nationwide Cleaners confirmed for me that this was an enterprise I should embark upon. I also liked the fact that the franchise fees were not overly exorbitant and that I had managed to secure a decent territory with lots of potential.
I am now six months into this new business venture and like the support Peter and some of my colleagues offer me as I continue to grow myself and grow the business incrementally. I feel excited every time a new cleaning client comes on board or a company requests leaflet delivery. I feel I have made a prudent decision in investing in Nationwide Cleaners and feel a growing sense of optimism in knowing that I can, given time, expand the business substantially and generate a good income for myself and my family. Tarun Dey”

“Things are going really well, thank you. We are busy in Folkestone, Ashford and Canterbury. Thanks for the additional postcodes. I will look into them. Thanks Sue”

Nationwide Cleaners Franchise Review Dorset: Peter and Janet

“Peter had retired and was getting very bored; Janet had a demanding job as a Training and Business Development Manager, which involved a fair amount of travelling and had switched to working part-time. Janet had been researching various franchises as she wanted a less demanding lifestyle, but also one where she could put her skills to good use and also provide husband Peter with a new challenge in life, not to mention a good income!
A Nationwide Cleaners Franchise particularly appealed to us – we liked the fact that we could work from home, we also liked the fact that our cleaners would be self-employed (anyone who has had dealings with employment law will know what a nightmare this can be!). We thought the franchise monthly fee was reasonable in comparison with some other franchises and we also liked the money back guarantee, which is very unusual – this was obviously a company confidentof our success!
We found Peter Munro to be very helpful and informative right from our first meeting.  He is entirely honest and tells you how it actually is! We won't deny that starting up the business was hard graft (which is only to be expected), but we had our first client by the end of June 2016 and had 50 clients by the end of October. Janet is giving up her training job in March 2017 to spend time further developing the business, we still have many postcode areas that we haven't yet covered and recognise that there is still a great deal of untapped potential out there!
Peter has not only spent time on developing the cleaning side of the business, but has enjoyed developing the marketing side, too. Peter introduced tracking to his leaflet distribution, which has proved very successful and led to a constant stream of enquiries. When Janet has more time available in March, Peter plans to further expand the marketing, which he recognises as having good potential, too!
We are both very pleased that we made the decision to invest in a Nationwide Franchise – it ticks all our boxes and is the best decision we have ever made!”

Nationwide Cleaners Franchise Review Spain

“My name is Laurence and I have been operating a Nationwide Cleaning franchise since October 2012.
These are some of reasons I made the decision to join Nationwide Cleaners:

1. Scalable
2. Flexible
3. Inexpensive
4. Interesting
5. Enjoyable
6. Income is effort related
7. Recurring revenue

I personally run the business from both Spain and England which suits me as I enjoy travelling. I could equally run this from other countries. So far the franchise has met with all of my best expectations and I should add that I have found Peter to be very honest, professional and reliable.”

Nationwide Cleaners Franchise Review Portsmouth: Matt Brent

“After taking voluntary redundancy from my job, I decided I would like to start out on my own. My options were limited it seemed because of a lack of business experience. I therefore looked into franchising as a means of working for myself, but supported by a tried and tested system.
After looking at various options, I decided on domestic cleaning as a growth industry. I read an article by Peter Munro in The Telegraph and plumped for Nationwide Cleaners.
I found Peter to be a straight up man and not someone trying to just sell a franchise for a fast buck. Since then, I have found the system works. Peter and other franchisees are always there to offer words of advice. There is't much new under the sun! I would recommend the franchise to anyone.”

Nationwide Cleaners Franchise Review Newcastle: Denise

“When I decided to change career paths and do something which enabled me to be completely in charge of my life and work, I began to research into starting my own company.
When I found Nationwide Cleaners, what encouraged me most was the support and the guidelines which were offered along with the opportunity to become part of a franchise. This meant that I could have my own business, whilst having the safety of the franchise. Keeping in touch with Peter Munro, the founder of the franchise, has allowed me to quickly learn the ropes and begin to provide a quality service to the North East.
After following a clear set of guidelines and Peter's support, I very much look forward to what the future will bring and am glad to have become part of such a rewarding franchise.
Would I make this choice again? Definitely yes”

Nationwide Cleaners Franchise Review

Basil started recently in a large area from Guildford in Surrey to the south coast. He has already taken on his first clients and has achieved very positive reviews from them for his service. Although his area is quite rural with scattered towns, he rarely has to travel far as the contact with clients and cleaners is by phone and to a lesser extent by email.
He certainly does not need to battle rush hour traffic and is enjoying his work/life balance. His clients are mainly the elderly, who he is providing an important service to and assisting them remaining in their own homes, and couples who both work.
When initially choosing a franchise, he arranged a 2 hour meeting with Peter, the franchisor, and spoke to several existing franchisees. He is looking forward to expanding to towns which he has hardly touched yet in his 200,000 house territory and is convinced his business has great potential.

Nationwide Cleaners Franchise Review Farnborough: Alison & Dil

"Having served 36 years in the military, rising to the rank of Major in the Gurkhas, I had both leadership and management experience and had ability to build effective customer relationships.
I chose Nationwide Cleaners as I liked the idea of working for myself, but at the same time having someone there to help give me advice.
It just seemed to tick all the right boxes!"
