The Flat Roof Company

Flat Roof Renewal? Think About It.... Consider the number of flatroofs already in existence. look around you, many properties have a flat roof of some description, a garage, a dormer bedroom or even a large extension on the rear elevation, perhaps a kitchen or additional living space. Think about shops, offices, schools, hospitals and recreational clubs, the list is endless. In 1990 alone, over 220 million square yards of bitumen based coverings were laid in the UK..... and what do all these roofs have in common?

What is a Franchise?

A Franchise is where a Company (The Franchisor) has developed a successful business system and then licences other people (the Franchisee) to replicate this successful formula in other areas. Good examples of successful franchises would be McDonalds, Dynarod, Clarks Shoes and many, many more.
 

The Benefits of Franchising

A successful franchise allows you the opportunity to run your own successful business but with the security of having a company advising you that has already made all of the mistakes So you don't have to.!

A new franchise start up is several times more likely to succeed than trying to do it on your own - only 1 out of 9 new small businesses are still trading after 3 years as opposed to 9 out of 10 franchised new starts!! (British Franchise Association figures).

The security of having an experienced Franchisor behind you every step of the way who is always ready to help, whatever the problem, is far better than staring at a blank wall wondering where to turn next!

We now have over 25 franchised outlets, and seek more in areas where we are underrepresented. If you are fit, you can submit an enquiry any time.
 

THE MARKET

THE MARKET
Kevin Moody, the company's Business Development Director, sums up the attractions of a Flat Roof Company Franchise by saying:

"Thanks to the UK's uncertain weather there is a proven demand fopr the TUFFDEK roofing system, because literally millions of properties incorporate flat roofs. These include garages, extensions and porches of private houses, plus a huge variety of commercial buildings. Just about every flat roof not fortunate enough to be covered by the TUFFDEKB system will leak in a few years ...guaranteed!

As the UK'S leading specialist flat roofing company our franchisees can stop this distressing state of affairs in its tracks!

Property owners now rightly demand long- term solutions to traditional maintenance problems and flat roofing is no exception. With a conservative estimate of 10 million homes in the UK having one or more bitumen felt flat roofs, all of which will leak sooner rather than later the market is huge, especially for a company offering the high levels of customer satisfaction provided by our franchisees."

Bearing this in mind it is no surprise that there are thousands of companies offering "flat roof repairs", but very few can provide their customers with total peace of mind, whilst not one can provide a unique 25 year written guarantee - unless they are a Flat Roof Company franchisee!

 

THE REWARDS

The total fee to become a franchisee of The Flat Roof Company is £25,000 + VAT (the VAT is reclaimable). Margins are very attractive, with gross profit margins of around 50-55% consistently being achieved and net profit margins often exceeding 20-25% of turnover.

Initial turnover levels in excess of 100K are reguarly achieved with a single installation team. Subsequent sales levels show significant growth as the business expands, typically £140-£180K per annum. In addition, some of the company's franchisees operate multiple installation teams and generate substantially higher levels of turnover and profit.

The Flat Roof Company's franchise package is structured to smooth out any start up problems and provides on-going support as the business grows.
