After 12 years of solid growth, and 300 franchisees around Australia, Hire A Hubby is continuing it’s growth with an expansion strategy into the UK and EU.

We’ve recruited franchisees from a diverse range of backgrounds. Whilst we do recruit our share of tradesmen, we are seeing an increasing number of new franchisees coming from careers such as Finance & Banking, The Armed Forces, Police/Fire/Ambulance, Sales & Marketing, IT, the Trucking Industry, Hospitality, and many other vocations. They all share one thing in common; they have all done general handyman work in their own home, and that of their friends, relatives and neighbours. The thing is, they just haven’t been paid for it. Hire A Hubby can change all of that, and quickly.

The franchise industry in the UK is now estimated to be worth £12.4 billion, with the average turnover for a franchised business at £360,000. It is also estimated that franchising employs some 383,000 people. The number of franchise business systems has seen a 3% increase over the past five years, and with 91% of franchisees saying their business is profitable, this only adds to the demand for the Hire A Hubby service (Source: 2008 Natwest/BFA UK Franchise Survey).

Whilst Hire A Hubby is renowned for the small jobs, we are also very proficient with bigger projects; kitchen and bathroom renovations, pergola and decking work are all part of a day’s work.

For the career orientated franchisees, we have recently developed a qualified maintenance support team that is available to assist our franchisees keep up with their growing businesses. Whether you need someone extra to help occasionally, or you want to grow your business in a controlled method, franchisees can use this service whenever they need to, and grow their business to the size that best suits them.
