What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Basecamp Fitness's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the Cleaning Fee is only payable if a franchisee fails to maintain their studio in a condition that meets Basecamp Fitness's standards. If the studio's condition is not up to par, Basecamp Fitness may designate its personnel to assist or hire third-party cleaners to bring the studio up to standard.
The amount of the Cleaning Fee is not a fixed sum but rather the costs Basecamp Fitness incurs and is charged by third parties for the cleaning services. This means the fee can vary depending on the extent of cleaning required and the rates of the cleaners used. The fee is due as incurred, meaning the franchisee must pay the cleaning costs promptly after Basecamp Fitness provides notice of the charges.
This policy incentivizes franchisees to maintain a clean and well-kept studio to avoid incurring additional costs. It also gives Basecamp Fitness the ability to ensure brand standards are upheld across all locations, which is important for maintaining the brand's reputation and customer experience. Franchisees should ensure they understand the specific cleaning standards expected by Basecamp Fitness to avoid this fee.
