Business Description

• Well-entrenched, servicing clients on the Sunshine Coast for over 30 years
• Established reputation for providing quality work at a fair price

This long-standing business provides general plumbing, drainage and maintenance services and backhoe hire to developers, builders, commercial and industrial clients as well as the general public. Based on the Sunshine Coast, this general plumbing contractor has been in operation since 1980 and is known for providing a professional, value for money service. The business has forged strong relationships with 13 leading, local builders and has an extensive client database of which approximately 70% are repeat customers.

Services provided include:

• Clearing/repairing blocked and broken drains

• Conducting CCTV pipe inspections

• Detecting water leaks

• Performing line tracing

• Auditing water usage and efficiency

• Installing and repairing hot water systems

• General plumbing maintenance and more.

Commercial and industrial services include:

• Blocked Drains

• Mini Excavator

• Concrete Cutting

• Leak Detection

• Water Efficiency Management Plans

• General Plumbing Maintenance

• Commercial Heat Pumps.

Operating Monday to Friday with quoting conducted on Saturday, when required, the current owner works an average 40 hours each week quoting and carrying out general plumbing work, while administration and bookkeeping are carried out by the owner’s wife one day each week.

This business is offered with an extensive list of plant and equipment that includes a JCB backhoe, Ford F150 and tip trailer, as well as a large array of specialist tools.

As a result of referrals, this solid business continues to grow. With an established reputation for providing quality work at a fair price earned over three decades servicing clients on the Sunshine Coast, there is still room for further growth. The business would gain from an increased marketing effort to the general public and direct contact with builders, developers, and local and State government departments—any increase in work could be easily accommodated by hiring a casual contractor!

The owner of this long-standing business has decided to retire, creating an ideal opportunity for an operator with a Plumbers & Drainers and Builders license to reap the benefits of the hard work already done. The current owner will provide three weeks’ training if required.
