Long-standing Time For You franchise owners reveal they are still happy with the decision they made over five years ago.

Ann Brebner was working as a Police Officer eight years ago, when she decided that she needed better work/life balance and decided to invest in the Time For You Northampton location.


Brebner has been running her franchise with her business partner, Clair, for seven and a half years. She currently has 290 regular clients and over 100 cleaners registered with her company. Her current annual profits are £125,000. Adamant that she made the right decision, Brebner has found running her franchise has given her more flexibility in her working life and she and her family are benefiting from her increased spare time.


Another pair of successful Time For You franchise owners are Hazel and Ralph Watson, who bought the Fife location in 2005 after running their own carpet and upholstery cleaning business. They currently have about 115 cleaners servicing more than 220 clients, with plans to treble business in the next three years. Ralph Watson said: “We are very passionate about Time For You and it has given us a great lifestyle.

There are franchise owners within the business with many more clients, and we are hoping to emulate them to grow.”
