3 steps to plumbing success. May 2005

aqua-lec, the new plumbing franchise from the successful home safety inspection company gas-elec, is preparing to welcome its first batch of franchisees.  The company knows what it takes to succeed in the competitive plumbing franchise market.

“The three most important things are training, marketing and support,” says group MD John Davidson.  “In less than ten years we’ve built gas-elec into a multi-million pound business and we shall do the same with aqua-lec.”

The company-owned award-winning C&G and CITB approved training centre is next door to the group’s head office near Heathrow Airport.  Experienced trainers and intense, modular courses mean aqua-lec franchisees can be working and earning as early as week 10 but still developing their plumbing skills.

Head office PR and marketing teams help franchisees launch their business locally.  Regional marketing and PR can help with cross-referrals between aqua-lec and the 110 safety inspection franchisees in the gas-elec network.

Ongoing business support allow franchisees to concentrate on maximising their income.  Services include call handling, centralised invoicing, credit control, book-keeping and IT support.

The aqua-lec business relies on general plumbing, not 24/7 emergency work.  Income-building additional products include Legionella testing and Fire Risk Assessments.  And if you refer a friend, you could earn yourself a £500 referral fee.

Don't let a costly disaster happen!
