At Refresh Renovations we’re changing the way the world renovates. And that’s no small thing. We looked at the $36 billion renovation industry and thought that if it was a house, you’d demolish it and start again.

So we did. We built a system that puts the customer at the centre, turns amateur hour into a professional industry and gives the right franchise owners the chance to build amazing businesses from the ground up.

The catch? They have to really want it. Sure, they need the right skill set, but attitude is front and centre. That’s why not everyone who looks at a Refresh Renovation franchise buys one. It’s also why not everyone who wants to buy one gets one. We’re changing the way the world renovates. And that starts with you.

The Industry


The home renovation market has a massive problem - fragmentation and disorganisation. It is estimated that over 30% of projects end in a dispute because of this.

Our process is designed to reduce the common pitfalls in renovations such as budget-blowouts and timeline delays. We have engineered a very powerful model that combines a fully integrated software system, enabling Refresh franchisees to deliver the best customer experience and solve a massive problem for both homeowners and contractors.

Research by Harvard University’s Joint Centre for Housing Studies in 2014 also shows that Refresh’s process is proven by their study.

Harvard research concludes: “Building a trusted and recognisable brand on a national scale for which consumers would pay a premium, such as with franchising or strategic alliances, would likely transcend many of the other obstacles to scaling in the home renovation industry.”

You can achieve business success by improving the customer experience through communication as you offer one point of contact throughout the whole renovation process.

Create a business you’ll be proud of


Harvard also says: “..strong leadership and business acumen are the most important factors for successfully scaling in this industry”

Our franchise owners are not builders, they come from a variety of career backgrounds, many of which have nothing to do with home renovations. Some have backgrounds in pharmacy, IT Sales, real estate, engineering, banking and management.

You’ll be business-driven with a growth mindset and an interest in marketing and building a scalable business. Our most successful franchisees have strong relationship management skills and are great communicators that pride themselves on providing an exceptional customer experience.

We can provide you with training in this area, provided you have a few key skills and aspirations: Strong leadership skills, business-minded, ability to make customers feel important and supported, motivation to build a multi-million dollar business, sales and marketing abilities, enthusiasm and positivity, an interest in home renovations.

Success Story - Sergio

Success Story - Sergio

Refresh Renovations stood out to Sergio, as it was the only one focused on operating across the breadth of home renovation projects in what is now a £28 billion market in the UK.

Sergio is Refresh's 4th franchisee in the UK and the first operating in the West Country. A qualified engineer, he has extensive experience in project management in various professional environments (including franchising).

He has undertaken and project managed a number of his own renovation projects working with a team of vetted experienced local builders who he will now work with under the Refresh umbrella. Refresh Renovations uses a design and build process which reduces risks during the build stage of the project (delivering on time and on budget).

Each client has an individual online portal for their project where they can monitor it's progress (photo's can be uploaded and shared on social media), they can remain in touch with the build team via a chat function and also use it to select products.

Refresh Renovations is a global operator (NZ, Australia, UK & USA) and the only franchised home renovation business in the country, to learn more simply complete the form below!

Refresh Renovations Testimonials
The support network from head office and other franchisees in the group add a lot of value to beginners like me
Dave Georgetti (Auckland franchise owner & former business manager)
It was an opportunity for me to get into an exciting industry that I was interested in but didn’t have a huge amount of knowledge or experience in. I knew when buying a franchise that it would allow me to join this industry and get the experience and knowledge.
Paul Cree (Melbourne franchise owner & former engineering consultant)
I’ve replaced my salary now. I’ve got a lifestyle now. I’m building an asset—which you can’t do when you’re on a salary.
Jeff Clark (Refresh Renovations Wellington franchise owner & former IT whizz)
I’ve replaced my salary now. I’ve got a lifestyle now. I’m building an asset - which you can’t do when you’re on a salary.

“The directors are pretty smart, trustworthy guys and I kind of felt they knew what they were talking about - (I) had faith in the directors, the systems and the people.” - Mark Morrison, Wellington franchise owner & former design engineer (on why he chose Refresh)
Mark Morrison (Wellington franchise owner & former design engineer (on why he chose Refresh))
“WOW! Refresh Renovations are a breath of fresh air! Prompt response to my enquiry, initial meeting informative and professional, follow up communication outstanding - such an amazing service!
Tracey Gudsell (Refresh Customer)
They project manage the renovation from start to finish! This took the stress out of having to organise different contractors for each component of the renovation and meant there would be just one point of call for any issues that might arise.
Hayley and Simon Nolan (Refresh Customers)
