TLDR: Actively marketed, broker-represented full-service HVAC/geothermal contractor. Asking ~$1.8M. ~$1.87M gross revenue, ~$586K SDE, established in 2008, 9 full-time employees, zero distress. The owner has stepped back after suddenly needing to undergo multiple procedures and operations over the last 24 months, leaving the staff to successfully run day-to-day operations. This is a continuity buy, not a turnaround.
Who this fits
This opportunity is an ideal fit for private equity firms seeking a high-performing bolt-on, or a searcher who possesses strong communication skills and exceptional sales ability. Because the management and field execution structures already exist, this heavily favors an operator or firm that wants to step in, execute on the unpulled growth levers, and scale—not rebuild a broken foundation.

Why this platform is a high-margin winner
Most HVAC roll-up targets in this range are commodity service shops competing on price. This one isn't. Operating as a high-touch, 5-star service provider with the motto, We do everything but oil, this business boasts a dominant geothermal (GSHP) specialization. This is a technically demanding, highly defensible niche that is incredibly hard for competitors to replicate, and it typically yields 30-50% higher margins than standard HVAC work.
Approximately 30% of revenue comes from new construction—catering exclusively to a premium market with an average home size of 6,300 sq. ft.—while the remainder stems from retrofit, replacement, service, and recurring maintenance contracts. Because of this premium client mix, it is not reliant on expensive lead-gen, and seasonal swings are highly muted compared to a traditional HVAC shop.

Reason for sale
The owner has now undergone multiple procedures and operations over the last 24 months and relies heavily on the team to operate the majority of the business. The existing team is running operations exceptionally well; current financial performance reflects staff execution, not owner hustle. This is a considered transition, not a fire sale, and the extreme discretion around the company name and location reflects that.
