Business Highlights

  • Longstanding plumbing and drain service business with 40 years of brand equity, built on a reputation for honesty, quality, and profitability.

  • Focused on service and repair plumbing, including sewer and drain work, supported by pricing and CRM software for optimized job quoting and profitability tracking.
  • Strong repeat and referral-based customer base with significant growth potential for buyers offering additional services (e.g., water filtration, sewer relining, maintenance plans, etc.).
  • Perfect turnkey acquisition for a larger company expanding into the region or a licensed plumber looking to avoid startup costs and hit the ground running.

Considerations / Questions to Ask

  • Breakdown of revenue by service type (e.g., emergency, planned repair, sewer/drain)

Opportunities

  • Build online presence and marketing funnel to supplement referral-based pipeline
