On-site repairs to damaged doors, worktops, floors and tiles, for housebuilders and homeowners

Snag Doctor repairs and restores damaged surfaces in place, from scratched kitchen units and chipped worktops to cracked tiles, baths, shower trays, stone, doors, staircases, window frames and flooring. Its customers include housebuilders, property developers, insurance companies, housing associations, hotels and homeowners, and much of its work is snagging: fixing damage before a new home is handed over.

The brand was launched in 2017 and now runs a fleet of more than 50 vans across the UK, with a network turnover it describes as seven figures. Each franchise is managed separately, and franchisees work under exclusive territories.

A franchise built on a repair skill

Snag Doctor franchisees learn the repair techniques through a structured four-week training programme run by the brand’s own technicians, then receive marketing support, lead generation, sales literature and branding. Territories are defined by postcode, with a minimum of 325,000 rooftops each, and the brand says it has opportunities in dozens of territories across the UK.

The franchise is designed to grow beyond a single van: franchisees quoted on the site describe running two territories and building teams of five to seven staff. Snag Doctor publishes no franchise fee or investment figure, but states that approved funding options are available.
