FRANCHISE RESALES

Buy a MaidPro Franchise

MaidPro is a residential cleaning franchise founded in Boston in 1991, with franchising beginning in 1997. Operating under the Threshold Brands umbrella, the brand runs more than 250 locations across the US and Canada, making it one of the established leaders in the US residential cleaning sector.

Franchisees serve residential clients on recurring schedules, with additional revenue available from one-time specialty cleans, commercial accounts, and property management clients. The model is staffing-led: owners recruit and manage teams of cleaning professionals who service client homes, with MaidPro’s 49-point cleaning checklist and eco-friendly product standards as core service differentiators.

The brand operates a home-based model with no commercial storefront required, using territory-based coverage. A National Call Center handles scheduling and customer inquiries for franchisees, allowing owners to concentrate on team management and local market growth. Threshold Brands provides group resources and shared infrastructure across its portfolio of home service brands.

MaidPro – Additional  Information

  1. Training & Support

    MaidPro's initial training covers 182.5 hours of classroom instruction and 14.5 hours of on-the-job training, plus a self-paced SmoothStart programme lasting 5 to 8 weeks. Ongoing support includes one-on-one business coaching, MaidPro University for staff training, a franchisee intranet, webinars, peer performance groups, and cooperative advertising. A National Call Center handles scheduling and customer service for active locations. Resale buyers should confirm what transfer training and intranet access MaidPro provides to incoming owners.

  2. Ideal Owner

    MaidPro suits owners who are comfortable building and managing a team of cleaning professionals rather than cleaning homes themselves. The role is primarily operations-led and people-management focused: recruiting reliable staff, retaining clients through service consistency, and growing the local customer base through marketing and referrals. No prior cleaning industry experience is required; MaidPro provides full training. Strong candidates are community-minded, customer-focused, and comfortable with the scheduling and logistics of a recurring-service business.

  3. Recognition & Awards

    MaidPro has appeared on Entrepreneur's Franchise 500® for 25 consecutive years, achieving Franchise 500® Hall of Fame status, and ranked #395 in the 2025 list. The Canadian Franchise Association recognized MaidPro with its 2024 Awards of Excellence. Franchise Business Review has named MaidPro a top maid service franchise, and the brand has earned Entrepreneur recognition for Top Veterans, Top Under $150K, Top DEI, and Top Company Cultures. MaidPro is a multiple-year Boston Business Journal Best Places to Work honoree and a 2025 Global Franchise Awards finalist.

  4. Industry / Market

    The US residential cleaning services market was valued at approximately $18.8 billion in 2024, supported by the growth of dual-income households, an aging population, and heightened hygiene awareness since the pandemic. Around 10% of US households regularly hire professional cleaners, generating predictable recurring demand. The sector is competitive, with a large number of independent operators nationally, giving established franchise brands with strong local reputations a structural advantage. For resale buyers, local market density and the unit's existing client retention rate are the most relevant indicators.
