Licensed Plumbing & Whole-Home Repiping Business

About this business

This is an established Southern California plumbing operation comprising two affiliated businesses under common ownership: a full-service residential and commercial plumbing company serving El Segundo and the surrounding West LA/South Bay market, and a specialized whole-house repiping business serving homeowners throughout Southern California. The combined enterprise has a 24-year operating history built on a strong reputation for responsive, high-quality service among homeowners, HOAs, realtors, and commercial property owners. The founder brings over 35 years of hands-on plumbing experience, including time with a national trade union.

The business holds active California C-36 Plumbing Contractor licenses, carries general liability and workers' compensation insurance, and maintains an established base of repeat and referral customers throughout the South Bay. It is licensed, bonded, and insured, approved as an HOA vendor, and offers 24/7 emergency service. Services include general plumbing repairs and service calls, drain cleaning and hydrojetting, sewer camera inspection and spot repair, water heater and tankless installation/repair, whole-house and partial repiping in copper and PEX, gas line installation and leak repair, water quality and filtration systems, smart leak-detection systems, and commercial plumbing with preventative maintenance programs.

The company operates with a lean staffing model—owner, office manager, one direct-employee plumber, plus subcontracted repipe crews—keeping fixed payroll overhead low. The business achieved 41%+ SDE margin in 2025 and features a diversified service mix with recurring-revenue potential through maintenance programs. It maintains a dedicated direct-response marketing funnel for the repipe division, including a vanity phone line, video-driven website, and online project-scoping tool.

Growth opportunities include geographic expansion beyond the current West LA/South Bay footprint, build-out of recurring maintenance and service-plan programs, increased marketing and digital lead-generation investment, operational efficiencies through scheduling and dispatch technology, and formalized upselling of ancillary systems alongside repipe projects. The transaction is offered on a cash-free, debt-free basis and includes service vehicles, equipment, tools, existing customer relationships, license credentials, and goodwill. The owner is motivated to sell and willing to provide a transition period to support operational continuity and customer relationship transfer.
