Reclaim Your Freedom. Work from Anywhere. Harmonious Work-Life Balance Does Exist.
A Timeless Industry. A Home Cleaning Franchise Made Modern.
Why a Home Cleaning Franchise? Because it’s Not What You Think.
We Are Changing Perceptions.
Mint Maids is changing perceptions around finding your purpose in the home cleaning industry...or as we sometimes refer to it, the "home-wellness industry." Our modern model unites innovation-driven methods with sustainability-centered practices to encourage business Owners with flexibility and a desire for healthy living.
Cleaning Experience, Not a Prerequisite.
We attract Franchise Partners who come from diverse backgrounds. Cleaning experience is not required. We care about who you are, not what you are. We look for a common thread - a drive to succeed, an entrepreneurial spirit, positive leadership energy, and high regard for good customer service.
With our hybrid business model, Partners can choose what suits their vision.
What Makes Us Different?
It's no secret that the top franchise systems in Canada and the United States are from the cleaning and janitorial category. Cleaning is a necessity, and it is also one of the most recession-proof industries out there! Well, Mint Maids is a lot different than the other brands.
Low Investment, Large Territory
With a low Franchise Fee of 40k, franchise Owners are awarded a vast territory that covers a population of 200,000.
No Brick + Mortar
Thanks to our online scheduling system, field technicians communicate and run their day from their smartphone, clocking in and out without a need to visit an office.
The Brand (right?!)
Our beautiful, contemporary brand has disrupted the cleaning industry since 2016. It turns heads.
Self-Serve Clientele
Saving you time - your clients book online through our self-serve booking portal. Our system does the work for you!
Meeting the Needs of the Modern Home-Owner and Business Owner.
We like to do things differently. Our online self-serve booking system is built to accommodate our cleaning clients' busy life and that of our Owner/Operators. We've leveraged technology to make everyone happy— easy booking for clients, seamless schedule availability for employees, and efficient operations for Owners. Our tailor-made tech stack has propelled us miles ahead of the largest home cleaning brands.
“The way this model is designed, there is no requirement for Owners to ever be in the field. Run the day from your laptop. Breathe that in for a moment.”
Did someone say “old school” hours?
Never a weekend, never an evening, never a statutory holiday. Our cleaning hours are 9-5. Reclaim your "me time," and unplug! On top of these “old school” hours, our work-life coach helps Franchise Partners design a realistic schedule and lifestyle that allows for balance and a greater sense of well-being.
Our Partners Get It!
“I want my children to see that they have options in life and not settle for something that makes them unhappy. I hope to change other people's views towards getting up and going to work, the same way my view was changed. I am so excited to be a part of the company that made me stop complaining about Mondays!” ~ Brittany R
From our Founder:
“Mint Maids has something different to offer in a world where the boundaries between life and work are significantly blurred.”
We’d love to show you how owning a Mint Maids Franchise can reclaim your freedom and change how you feel about Monday mornings!

FAQs
What is the franchise fee?
The franchise fee for a single Mint Maids territory is $40,000.
What does it cost to open a Mint Maids?
The minimum investment to open a Mint Maids franchise is estimated at between $50,000 - $95,000. The amount you invest depends on several factors including if you settle on more than one territory. More details are available in our Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD).
What is the royalty fee?
A royalty fee is an ongoing fee that the franchisee pays to the franchisor. This fee is paid monthly and is typically calculated as a percentage of gross sales. The ongoing royalty payments are how the franchisor supports its franchisees and further builds the brand.
How much is the ongoing royalty fee?

How long does the Franchisee Agreement last?
Our franchise term is ten years. At the end of which, you have renewal options.
Does head office help out with getting me off the ground?
We call the 'Launch' of new Franchise Owners an incredible adventure, and our Support Studio has a whole plan laid out just for this. Our team will help determine how to open your doors successfully with weekly calls leading up to the opening day.
Will I get my own territory?
Yes. Territories are approximately 200,000 people. We encourage Franchise Partners to take on more than one territory if they wish and if it's available.
Do you require owners to operate their territory?
Owners may decide to hire an Operations Manager/Manager/Office Manager to run their territory's daily operation. If this is the case, what we ask is that the Operations Manager complete the Mint Maids Online Training.
Shouldn't I have some experience in the cleaning industry?
Like we always say, "We care more about WHO you are than WHAT you are (not what your resume says)." Cleaning experience is not necessary, but shared values are. Our Founder had zero cleaning experience when she began this venture. What she did have, was a whole lotta determination and team spirit.
Am I solely responsible for my employees?
Your team is yours to create and manage. Our rockin' Support Studio, alongside your personal business coach (you get to work with a work-life business coach for your first year), will guide you through your first round of recruiting as a newbie.
Who is in charge of marketing? Head office or me?
Our beautiful brand is managed and advertised by our in-house Marketing Agency. Franchise partners pay a small percentage that goes directly towards this, and includes the creation and upkeep of their business social feeds.
