A franchised plumbing service company covering a protected territory in Nueces County, TX, selling all phases of plumbing work: drain and sewer clearing, leak and fixture repairs, water heater replacement, and line and repipe work. Customers are a mix of homeowners calling for one-off emergencies and repeat accounts, several of which generate larger jobs, with calls fed by a nationally recognized franchise system's brand, national call handling, and marketing programs.
Day to day, the owner covers the back office - scheduling, dispatch, invoicing, and franchisor reporting - at roughly 45 hours per week, with family members assisting on batching and posting. One licensed plumber performs the field work and will not remain after closing, so the buyer must hold a Texas master plumber license or employ a licensed plumber as responsible party.
What transfers: the protected franchise territory subject to franchisor approval and transfer fee, two owned cargo service vans, tools, tablets used for dispatch and invoicing, parts inventory, customer records and phone number, and an assumable shop lease. Training on the franchise systems, software, and pricing comes from the franchisor alongside the seller's own handover.
This fits a licensed Texas plumber ready to own rather than work for someone else, or a local contractor bolting a branded residential service arm onto an existing crew.

Focusing on other business
Operations run from a small leased shop and office in Nueces County at Amount hidden. Sign up to view. per month on an assumable lease that renews annually, a fixed cost low enough that technician capacity, not overhead, sets the ceiling on revenue. Two owned cargo vans (one wrapped in brand livery, one unwrapped), plumbing tools, and two tablets used for dispatch and invoicing convey at roughly Amount hidden. Sign up to view. in resale value, and parts inventory is included in the sale. A buyer takes over a road-ready operation and needs to add licensed labor rather than capital equipment.
The seller has offered to remain available to answer questions and walk the buyer through office systems, customer relationships, and franchisor reporting during the transition, alongside the franchise system's own onboarding and training.
Plumbing demand in this coastal South Texas county is non-discretionary - sewer stoppages, slab leaks, and failed water heaters get fixed regardless of the economy - and the customer mix spans homeowners, repeat accounts, and commercial jobs. Texas licensing rules are the real barrier to entry: a master plumber must serve as responsible party and field work requires journeyman licensing, which limits how fast new competitors appear against the many small independent operators here. Against those independents, this operation competes on a nationally recognized brand, national call handling, standardized upfront pricing, and marketing support a one-truck shop cannot match.
Local advertising ran about Amount hidden. Sign up to view. last year against the franchise system's Amount hidden. Sign up to view. annual local marketing requirement, so funding the brand's call-generation program is the most direct lever on job volume without buying more territory. A second cargo van already sits in the fleet, meaning one additional licensed technician roughly doubles field capacity on day one rather than after a capital purchase. Service lines the crew already performs - water heater and tankless swaps, sewer camera and drain work, repipes - convert well into scheduled maintenance agreements with property managers, restaurants, and small commercial landlords. After-hours emergency coverage is a further opening in a coastal market where water damage calls do not wait.
