Business description

An opportunity has arisen to purchase a highly successful cosmetic repair business, servicing the new-build residential market.

Established in February 2005, the owner recognised that there was an excellent opportunity for a company to carry out cosmetic repairs to damaged caused during the build.

The company carries out cosmetic repairs to virtually any surface both inside and outside the home. These repairs are virtually invisible and the techniques that they employ ensure that the repairs are long lasting. By repairing rather than replacement, their clients save time and money.

The business has developed processes that enable the technicians to make an invisible repair to any item that is damaged in the home, including bathroom suites, kitchen worktops and cupboards, laminate floors, veneer doors, upvc windows and doors, grp, garage doors, white goods, stainless steel, ceramics, and stonework. There is nothing that cannot be repaired.

Property information

Location:

Technicians are van-based. The Director’s run the company from a home office. The business is fully re-locatable.

Other information

Expansion potential:

This is a unique opportunity to purchase a growing business with strong values and commitment to its mission. It is easy to run and is well structured, generating excellent profit margins with incredible growth potential.

Since inception, with very little direct marketing, workload has continued to increase and the business has grown by means of reputation and recommendations. There is an outstanding opportunity to build on their existing client base, a strong demand for the specialist service this company provides and to diversify into other sectors.

There is vast scope to obtain new business and with additional staff, an opportunity to increase turnover and profit.

The company operates mainly in the North West and North Wales area. There is huge potential to carry out this type of work on a larger scale, throughout the UK.

Competition / Market:

The company runs a website, the owners realise this would benefit from some updating as this could attract more enquiries. A company brochure is also produced, which is mailed out to new and prospective clients after their initial enquiry. Most of the business comes from repeat work and word of mouth recommendation, but the Directors’ recognise that turnover could be significantly increased if a sales drive were to be implemented and additional staff employed.

Support & training:

The owner would be happy to help with a smooth handover of the business for an agreed period of time.

Reasons for selling:

The owner wishes to pursue other business opportunities and believes this is the right time for someone to take the business to the next level.
