Changing cleaning for good
Zerorez was founded in 1993 in the USA by two entrepreneurs who believed there had to be a better way to clean carpets – one that was safer, more effective, and didn’t leave sticky soap residues behind.
They created Zr™ Water, a non-toxic cleaning solution that delivered astonishing results with zero chemical residue. That innovation sparked something bigger and in 2001, Zerorez began franchising, becoming a top-rated brand with over 200,000 5-star reviews.
In 2023, Zerorez crossed the Atlantic and launched its first UK site in Watford, proving that the appetite for a better clean was just as strong here. That success now paves the way for nationwide growth, with opportunities for you to be part of the UK rollout of a proven global brand.

When Zerorez first landed in the UK in 2023, our mission was clear: to revolutionise the cleaning industry through innovation and a franchise model designed for long-term success.But before launching nationally, we needed to prove our concept worked just as well as it has done on the other side of the Atlantic, where it has grown to become America’s most-loved carpet cleaning company.
And that’s exactly what we did with Zerorez Watford, our first ever UK franchise, proudly established and opera...
