An affordable initial investment of ?13,100 will enable you to start your own Wilkins Chimney Sweep business. In most cases, your personal investment should represent 30 to 50% of the total amount. Wilkins Chimney Sweep requires you to personally invest at least ?5,500. You could potentially get a loan to cover the remaining costs. These low startup costs make it a good option to pursue for first-time franchisees. Also, if you can't afford the startup costs on your own, you may qualify for financial support.
