Zerorez Franchise Overview

About Zerorez

Zerorez developed its patented Empowered Water™ cleaning system to fundamentally change the carpet and living surface cleaning industry. Empowered Water™ is electrolyzed and oxidized water that creates a powerful cleaning solution without harmful toxins, soaps or detergents. Other cleaning processes leave soil-attracting residue, which, after cleaning, attracts more dirt and bacteria, failing to provide a truly lasting clean. With Zerorez, the result is Zero Residue®. It is simply The Right Way To Clean®.

Franchise History

The Zerorez Story began in Texas in the late 1990’s. The founders managed 3,000 apartment units and were frustrated with their carpet cleaning challenges. As a result, they began looking for a better cleaning solution but found that the carpet cleaning industry had been using the same process since the 1940's! The founders tried all the name brands in carpet cleaning and soon discovered that no reliable and effective cleaning process existed. Those processes always left residue, which naturally attracted more dirt and bacteria, and they failed to truly clean the carpet fibers. They set out to find a way to eliminate the residue and get the carpets REALLY clean. Their research and development led to Empowered Water ™ and then patented their process. The result… Zero Residue! It's simply "The Right Way to Clean™.” Zerorez Franchising Systems, Inc. was formed in 2001 and the first operating Zerorez bases opened in 2002 in Dallas and San Diego. The first franchises were sold beginning in 2003. Today, there are operations in various markets across the Country as they continue their growth towards a national footprint. Their rapid growth is based on their differentiated process. Typical cleaning of carpets and upholstery mixes hot water with a wide variety of soaps and detergents, some of which can be harsh or even toxic. By contrast, the ZEROREZ® cleaning system does not use soaps, detergents or shampoos to clean, but instead uses their revolutionary Empowered Water™. Empowered Water™ is applied to both hard surfaces, like stone, stainless steel, or granite, and soft surfaces, like carpet fibers, upholstery and leather via a high-pressure spray, both releasing embedded soil and cleaning the surfaces. The soil is then removed, leaving just the extraction water on the surfaces, which dries quickly and without any soil-attracting residue. Their franchise owners have become increasingly successful as leaders in their industry, and they look forward to expanding this brand across the United States.
