What is Sandfree?
SandFree is a 5 phase, chemical process with abrasion which prepares an existing floor to receive a URETHANE finish. The first 3 phases prepare the existing finish on a floor to receive a coat of urethane without sanding. The fourth phase is a bonding coat that provides a surface for the urethane to bond to. The fifth phase is the application of the same urethane Brunswick uses on their bowling alleys.. The fact that we use water-based products that have almost no odor, makes the process extremely attractive for people who don't want to lose the use of their property for a period of 3-5 days. Over the years, and millions of refinished feet later, the process has been expanded to enable us to:
- Apply urethane for a finish that will retain its appearance for 6-8 years.
- Apply an acrylic polymer if you want your floors to retain their appearance for 2-3 years or less.
- Alter the color of your floor, by enhancing the existing color, or changing the color entirely by using our ColorMagiq system.
- Blend water or pet stains into the color of the wood to make the stains less noticeable.
- Repair or replace wood. Take-up existing carpet and pad.
- Refinish existing homes while the owners live in the house.
SandFree is now capable of making satisfied customers out of 90% of the homes we enter, without sanding the floors. The other 10% either have warped boards or want to change the color from dark to light. In those cases, to get a new layer of wood, the floor needs to be sanded, but most other floors can be brought to a satisfactory level with No Dust! No Odor! and No Downtime!
SANDFREE franchising
SandFree Wood Floor Refinishing may be a business opportunity that will meet your needs of profitability, independence, and cutting edge technology. With the addition of the ColorMagiQ service, SandFree answers most of the needs of the customer who wants refinished floors but doesn't want to live through the dust, mess, and disruption that a traditional sanding, staining, and refinishing causes.
SandFree Franchising
The Initial Franchise Fees start at $3,000.
Based on the size of your franchise fee, payment terms, over not more than 12 months, can be arranged, with no interest, although a 1/3 deposit is always required. In a few months, your business should be doing well enough, to pay the franchise fee for you.
Your Franchise Fee will be based on the territory you select, if it is available.
SandFree was developed for commercial customers. It is a system that is well received by colleges, museums, schools, and restaurants. The more knowledgeable the purchasing agent, the more they will like SandFree.
SandFree has also been used in thousands of homes. If the homeowner wants a beautiful floor to provide years of great service, our commercial system is used. If the homeowner would like to polish their floor for a possible sale, we have alternate finishes that can be used.
As you'll see, when you get the Universal Franchise Offering Circular, there is no requirement that this be the only franchise you're involved in. We feel it is to your best advantage, to use SandFree as one service that you offer a customer, but you want to offer other interior services also - carpet, tile, carpet cleaning, etc. This is what we do. If you are a painter, carpenter, flooring installer, SandFree is an additional service that you should offer.
As I've said to the potential franchisees who have visited, the system works. Your success will depend on your ability to market the service especially to commercial accounts.
We can introduce you to a new and growing market and help you get started in your own business with a system that is in place, and has a proven track record.
SBA financing may be available to qualified borrowers.
