BUSINESS DESCRIPTION
Painting and decorating company operating in the domestic and commercial sectors
Ref.GK153
Location South West London
Asking Price £ 200,000
Established in 1999, this highly respected business, a firm favourite in the Central and South West London areas, provides a high quality painting and decorating service to a wide ranging customer base across the domestic and commercial sectors. Clients can include homeowners, offices, property management companies, architects and general contractors with typical jobs involving houses, offices, churches and schools – an area in which this business is particularly active throughout the summer holiday periods, having a number of longstanding relationships with educational establishments which provide repeat business, year on year.
For its Clients this business undertakes all aspects of painting and decorating including tilting and plasterwork and even carpentry when required, through a highly effective and efficient team of very well trained and experienced sub contractors – almost all of which are kept permanently busy by this business – many having been working with this organisation for several years. This business always provides the right teams with the right skills necessary to get the job finished properly and on time. It is particularly strong on Health and Safety, whilst still completing projects quickly and efficiently.
This business prides itself on the professionalism it brings to every task, however complex or simple it may be. Working on projects with a minimum value of £1,000, the aim of this business is always to complete the work on time, to budget and to the highest standards. This commitment to the highest standards of workmanship together with a clear understanding of the requirements of its Clients has resulted in a steady stream of repeat business – with approximately 65% of turnover estimated to come from this source. As a result, even when tendering, which it is not always required to do, this business wins jobs when it certainly is not the least cost option.
Expansion Potential
There is an outstanding opportunity to build on the existing business levels and customer base of this company. With its outstanding reputation, a new Owner contributing fresh ideas, drive, enthusiasm and investment will have every advantage of building on an excellent platform.
