Make your passion for renovation your next career step

August 14, 2025

MTP is one of New Zealand’s leading home renovation companies, helping homeowners transform their spaces. From kitchens and bathrooms to full home extensions, we’ve built a reputation for quality workmanship, transparent processes, and outstanding customer service.

We provide renovation services across New Zealand, championed by our regional MTP owners

It’s this proven model, backed by systems, training, and strong brand recognition, that makes us a standout opportunity for people wanting to own a business in the construction industry.

Why do people choose to become MTP franchisees?

People take the leap into franchising for lots of different reasons. 

Some have been made redundant, others feel stuck in their current role, or just want to build something that’s theirs. 

Some of our franchisees were tradies who wanted to step off the tools. Others were project managers looking for more autonomy. And some simply had a passion for property after renovating their own homes.

The common thread? They all wanted more:

  • More control over their time and income.
  • More flexibility to fit work around family or lifestyle.
  • More pride in building a business they could call their own.
  • More certainty than starting from scratch.

What to consider before becoming a franchisee

Franchising can be life-changing, but it might not be the right fit for everyone. 

If you’re thinking of making a change, here are some tips to consider:

  • Your goals: Do you want to scale a large business or keep it small and lifestyle-focused?
  • Your background: You don’t need trade skills, but you do need strong people and project management skills.
  • Your appetite for risk: Any business takes time to grow, but with MTP franchising, you’ve got proven systems to reduce that risk.
  • Your support network: Are you willing to lean on training, mentorship, and the brand’s processes rather than reinventing the wheel?
  • Your finances: There’s an upfront investment, but it includes training, systems, marketing, and the brand credibility that opens doors.

Asking yourself these questions helps you decide if you’re ready to step into business ownership with the backing of an established brand.

The benefits of being an MTP franchisee

When you buy into MTP,  you’re accessing a framework that’s already proven to work. 

Imagine stepping into your new business with leads already warmed up, thanks to nationwide marketing campaigns that put your name in front of homeowners. 

Instead of struggling to build a reputation from scratch, you’re backed by a brand that Kiwis already know and trust. That kind of credibility makes it easier to win projects and grow your business faster.

Behind the scenes, you’ll also benefit from the strength of our partnerships. With priority supply arrangements in place, you can access the materials and services you need at competitive rates, giving you an edge when it comes to project delivery and profitability.

You’re never left to figure things out alone, either. From day one, you’ll be supported by our operational team at head office as well as a network of franchisees across New Zealand who know exactly what you’re going through. It’s a built-in community of peers and mentors, ready to share advice, encouragement, and practical know-how.

On top of that, our software and systems are designed to take the stress out of running a business. From quoting to job management, everything is streamlined so you can spend less time buried in admin and more time focusing on clients and growth.

The most reassuring thing is that when you join MTP, you’re not just buying into a business model, you’re plugging into a framework that’s been refined over 18 years to give you the very best chance of success.

  • Lead generation through nationwide campaigns.
  • A solid, trusted brand.
  • Priority Supply arrangements.
  • Operational, marketing and network support.
  • Software and systems that save you time.
  • A team of other franchisees around New Zealand.

Common concerns – answered

Isn’t franchising expensive?
It’s an investment, but one that gives you instant credibility, structure, and support - things that are hard (and costly) to build on your own.

What if I don’t have trade skills?
No problem. Many franchisees come from project management or other industries. Your role is about running the business, leading teams, and keeping clients happy.

How quickly can I start earning?
Every person is different, but with our systems and support, you’ll generate income far faster than starting a business from scratch.

How to join MTP

Whether you’re a seasoned builder or a keen entrepreneur looking to run a building company with solid backing, MTP has got your back. 

Here’s how it works when you’re ready to talk:

Step 1: Initial contact

It all begins with a simple enquiry. We’ll send you an information pack that covers everything you need to know about MTP and the opportunity on offer. Once you’ve had a chance to look through it, we’ll give you a call for a quick chat. This first conversation is about making sure we’re a good fit for each other before moving forward.

Step 2: Business insight

Next comes a deeper dive into how the business works. You’ll sign a confidentiality agreement and then meet with us for an introductory session. During this stage, we’ll show you a model demonstration of how MTP operates and walk you through our systems - from quoting to Xero - so you can see how the pieces fit together. You’ll also receive a draft licence agreement to review, giving you plenty of time to consider the details.

Step 3: Legal paperwork

Once you’re feeling confident, you’ll spend half or a full day at our head office in Auckland to get a true feel for the business. This is the time to ask questions, clarify any details, and bring in your lawyer or accountant for professional advice. We want you to be fully informed and comfortable before moving forward, so this stage is all about open conversations and due diligence.

Step 4: Start-up

When you’re ready to take the leap, we’ll lock in your territory and finalise your licence agreement. At this point, you’ll confirm your start date and arrange the licence fee. From there, the focus shifts to preparing you to hit the ground running.

Step 5: Final touches

Before launch, we’ll get everything set up so you can step into your new business with confidence. That means your vehicle signage will be fitted, uniforms will be ready, and your business cards printed. You’ll go through a full induction into the MTP way of working and our support team will set up your systems so you’re ready to roll from day one.

Joining MTP isn’t just about starting a business - it’s about joining a family that’s got your back every step of the way.

Is MTP your next step?

If you’re ready to step away from the “same old, same old” and take control of your future, joining MTP as a franchisee could be the move that changes everything. 

You’ll get the financial rewards, lifestyle flexibility, and personal pride that comes with building a business of your own — with the backing of a proven brand.
