| 4 Maintenance Businesses You Can Start For Under $10,000
|
Service businesses have long been a mainstay of the small business field. They are often easy to set up and most only require a small amount of experience in the industry to start. Many services businesses in fact are pretty straight forward. They just require some common sense. So with that in mind here are 4 businesses that you can start assuming you have some common sense and the drive to make a go of it.
1. Carpet and Upholstery Cleaning Service: This is a business that can thrive in just about any town or city. Because where you have people you have both residential and commercial properties that are going to need cleaning.
Residential properties are always in need of someone that can clean carpets and furniture well. The kids and pets are always making a mess not to mention what the adults can do to a living space. Commercial properties are another great opportunity. They offer a smart business owner the chance to build up a regular clientele. You can establish a regular schedule for going in and cleaning offices for companies instead of waiting for a phone call from them.
Carpet and upholstery cleaning companies are always in demand. And starting such a business does require knowing how to use a carpet cleaner but you can probably figure that part out for yourself. You will want to invest in some decent cleaning equipment. But this business can be run out of a reliable van or truck with your office being in your home. After all you'll be going to visit your customers not the other way around.
2. Construction Cleanup: Unlike a regular cleanup business such as one for residential or commercial properties this business focuses on cleaning up after a property has been newly built or remodeled. Every city has some form of new construction going on. And someone is always going to be needed to clean up the mess that is left behind. Well that is where you come in. Being in the construction cleanup business means going in after the construction crews are gone and making the place presentable to the new owners. Your business is about cleaning a place from top to bottom. From the floors to the windows you'll be removing any extra debris and making things shine. And getting paid a pretty good buck to do it. So if you're interested in making a place presentable then this is the business for you.
3. Handyman: Have you ever been told that you are handy around the house? If the answer is yes or you enjoy fixing things around your home just because you like to then maybe a handyman business is right for you. There are people all across the globe that could be considered mechanically challenged. And there are many others that are just plain lazy. Either way this business is an opportunity to do something you might enjoy and you get to help other people at the same time. What else could you ask for? It always feels good to lend a helping hand. Especially when the other hand is collecting the paycheck for your services. So if you have a knack for fixing things around the house then this business might be a good fit for you.
4. Pool Cleaning Service: Ah life outdoors, sitting around the pool having a cold beer with friends. If you operate a pool cleaning service then that is the life you will be helping others to lead. Because who wants to have a cold beer around a dirty pool? Seriously though the pool cleaning business is one that is always in demand. Between the number of houses that have pools in the back yard as well as condo and apartment complexes not to mention hotels and motels there are plenty of pools that need cleaning in just about every city. So finding work should not be that hard. You do need to have a good understanding of how to clean a pool though. Too much chlorine in a pool can really cause some havoc. So you will need to educate yourself on proper pool maintenance. But once that is finished and you have a good working knowledge of cleaning pools you should be ready to go.
There are many more maintenance businesses that you could possibly start. These are just some of the possibilities that exist for someone that wants to become an entrepreneur but may be a little cash strapped in the beginning. If you are serious about starting such a business though make sure you do your homework.
