Start looking around at other franchise cleaning services and you’ll notice: they all say (and do) pretty much the same thing. So there’s no clear cut way to make a choice between them.
But not Maid Brigade. We are the only brand in the franchise cleaning services industry that has developed a distinct and meaningful unique selling proposition. That’s because Maid Brigade conducts market research regularly to understand what consumers really want and hones our concept to meet that demand.
PUREcleaningⓇ is the healthiest, most advanced and complete home cleaning and disinfection system on the market. Exclusive to Maid Brigade, PUREcleaningⓇ starts with a multi-point cleaning process to remove dirt and debris, and follows it with a powerful, non-toxic, EPA-registered disinfectant to remove harmful contaminants applied with an electrostatic sprayer to ensure 360 coverage on high-touch surfaces. With no harsh residues, dyes, or odors, it is safe for people, pets, and the environment.
For all these reasons, our franchisee validations are consistently strong. Here are some comments from recent start-ups:
“We looked at a lot of other brands – my husband used to sell franchises – and one of the things that set Maid Brigade apart was the longevity of the corporate staff. Other brands have a revolving door.”
“Because our business mentors are also Maid Brigade franchisees, we have total faith in the advice we get.”
Maid Brigade is certainly not the biggest of all franchise cleaning services – but we think that’s a big advantage when it comes to the support we provide and the relationships we build with our franchisees.
Did you know that 80% of consumers will boycott or avoid businesses that don’t offer a livable wage and a safe working environment? More good news. Maid Brigade knows the success we have built would not be possible without our stellar employees. That is why we hold them up as the reason we are different. Our people shine. And we’ve put systems in place to aide franchisees in employee orientation and development so that we can attract and develop the best talent in any market we serve.
A brand’s stability translates to industry experience. Maid Brigade has been in the franchise cleaning services business since 1985. We have developed the science and systems to maintain a unique competitive position as the Cleaning for Health expertise.
We’ve also honed our skills at business coaching and mentoring over the last 35 years for franchise cleaning services. And the continuity of our Home Office support team is bar none. The Home Office team has a collective longevity of over 180 years with Maid Brigade, and 15 years on average.
The business support we provide our franchise cleaning services owners in marketing, operations and personnel includes:

I’ve started and ran five businesses throughout my professional life and I am involved with the International Franchise Association and the Southeastern Franchise Forum. I believe Maid Brigade is a successful franchise opportunity because of the level of support the company provides to owners as well as Maid Brigade’s solid, replicable system. I graduated with honors from the University of Georgia with a degree in business and finance. My wife, Lynn, and I have two daughters and are active members of Dunwoody Methodist Church.
