$425k SDE Plumbing Company in Pacific Northwest | Owner Transition Support

intermediary profile

March 20, 2026

by an intermediary from Indiana University, Bloomington/Indianapolis - Kelley School of Business in Houston, TX, USA

Solid owner-operator opportunity in a large PNW metro market. This family-owned plumbing contractor has been operating for decades with a diversified revenue base — 55% light commercial, 45% residential — and an average commercial job size of $41K (varies slightly year to year). Revenue has been stable in the $2.7M–$3.1M range over the past four years. The 2024 SDE dip to $230K reflects a deliberate but unsuccessful attempt to transition to semi-absentee operations — the owner added management overhead, and margins compressed. The owner adjusted that overhead by terminating the new layer of management, and the business has responded: 2025 YTD through November is tracking $438K SDE on $3.11M revenue, the strongest year in the dataset. The current owner is willing to stay on as an employee post-close, making this a strong candidate for a first-time buyer or searcher who wants operational continuity during transition. Teaser attached — reach out directly for the NDA. Garrett Costello | Nexivus Business Advisors, LLC redacted | ###-###-####
