Semi-absentee commercial plumbing contracting business with more than 20 years of operating history, where the owner works up to 25 hours a week and often less. Three lead plumbers run the job sites independently, each on a separate project, and one of them is willing to serve as qualifying party on the Arizona contractor license for a new owner. There is no office, shop, or lease, so this can be run from anywhere. Projects span northern Arizona, tribal lands in Arizona and New Mexico, and the Phoenix metro, covering hotels, apartments, schools, judicial buildings, fire stations, wastewater treatment plants, and retail.
The business has never been marketed. No website, no advertising, no salesperson, no outbound effort, ever. Every project arrives inbound on reputation alone, which means the growth levers are all still sitting untouched. The owner forecasts approximately $2.7M in revenue for the current fiscal year ending March 2027 (up nearly 60% over prior fiscal year), and a buyer steps in with roughly $1.5M of contracted work still to bill plus another $2.7M of bids outstanding. The asking price also includes $100,000 of working capital and a $50,000 employee retention bonus pool the buyer can structure however they want. The owner is of retirement age and looking to sell his business to a buyer looking to continue the legacy he has built.
