The business owns seven company vehicles and operations include new construction water and gas piping installations, large-scale water main projects, and general commercial plumbing services with an average project size of $150,000.
The business is positioned for continued success under new ownership, with established systems, a loyal customer base, and growth potential in both existing and new markets.
Reason For Sale: The owner seeks to reduce the significant time commitment and stress associated with running the business after 30 years of dedicated effort. As the sole owner and operator, he now aims to transition to a less demanding role.

Its reputation, experience, and established relationships with contractors give it a competitive edge in securing projects. Pricing is typically mid-range, with past performance and word-of-mouth referrals driving new business.
Potential Growth:
Expansion opportunities include broadening geographic reach, diversifying service offerings, and leveraging existing industry relationships.
