Operations

The business is structured around an executive ownership model rather than requiring the owner to personally perform plumbing work.

Only a relatively small office and warehouse space is required for the current operation. The seller also reports an existing base of repeat customers and positive customer reviews.

Franchise support

Prior plumbing experience is not represented as a requirement for ownership. The parent franchise company provides formal training and ongoing support to an approved buyer.

Growth

• Add service technicians
• Increase residential service calls
• Develop additional commercial accounts
• Expand recurring maintenance relationships
• Increase utilization within the protected territory

Franchise and licensing

Continued use of the brand and protected territory will be subject to franchisor approval, franchise transfer requirements and the terms of the applicable franchise agreement.

Plumbing work may require state or local trade licenses, permits or supervision by appropriately licensed professionals. Buyers should independently confirm which credentials are required under the current operating structure.

Due diligence

Buyers should verify historical financials, cash flow, customer concentration, service mix, technician compensation, vehicle and equipment condition, lease terms, franchise royalties, advertising fees, territory boundaries, transfer costs and any outstanding customer warranties or service obligations before closing.
