Contracted Essential Service in WA’s South West

Net Profit: $641,682 | Sales: $2.14M | Plant & Equipment: $699,150 | Price: $1,780,000 (incl. stock) | Ref: LB4738WT

When the call comes in, this business has to answer. It provides a 24/7 essential service that the South West simply cannot do without, and it has been the region’s trusted name for more than 15 years. It is also a multi award-winning business, recognised by independent judges three years running.

Demand does not depend on good times. It runs every day of the year, through every economic cycle, and most of the work is paid for by major organisations, national corporate clients and local government rather than households watching their budgets.

Three Complementary Contracts

Much of the income is secured before the phone rings. The business holds two long-term 5 + 5 year contracts with a major WA organisation, renewed in 2025/26, plus a multi-year contract with a national industry group that began in October 2025 and is only now entering its first full year. All three are serviced by the same team, premises and systems, with long-standing preferred supplier status with blue-chip national corporates and open-ended local government agreements on top.

A Region Built for Growth

The South West is one of WA’s main population growth corridors and was named the nation’s fastest-growing regional tourism destination in 2023. The region’s population rose 3.6% in 2025 to more than 190,000 and is forecast to pass 215,000 by 2036. More residents and more visitors mean more demand, growth that is built into the region’s future rather than chased through marketing.

An Experienced, Stable Team

The business is run day to day by an experienced full-time manager and five field operators, and every team member has at least 18 months’ service. All are cross-trained, so the business flexes through busy periods without adding headcount.

Easy to Run, Day to Day

Much of the work arrives through clients’ own digital job-allocation systems, and the rest by phone. The manager logs each job, allocates it, tracks it to completion and invoices it through Xero, following documented, repeatable procedures. Most systems are cloud-based, so the business can be managed from the office or remotely.

It has already proven it runs without the owners, operating under staff management for about five months in 2025. Today the owners work only about 20 hours a week between them, mainly on accounts, contracts and quoting. No industry experience is required.

Covered Around the Clock, Without the Payroll

The office runs 8:00am to 4:30pm, Monday to Friday. Outside those hours:

• Weekends: a contractor takes over from 4pm Friday to Monday morning, handling all jobs, bookings and payments, and his cost is already in the accounts.
• Weeknights: a simple on-call phone, which averages fewer than one call a night outside holiday periods.

Key Features

• Adjusted net profit of $641,682 (FY2025/26), averaging $627,351 over three years
• A return of about 36% on the asking price
• $699,150 of plant and equipment included, close to 40% of the asking price, owned outright and transferred free of finance
• Sales have tripled in three years, and January to June 2026 was the strongest half in the business’s history, up 30% on a year earlier
• Around 695 customers a year
• 83% gross margin and advertising spend of under 1% of sales
• Freehold owned by the vendors, with a new 5 + 5 + 5 year lease on offer

Why This Is a Lower-Risk Purchase

Buyers often focus on price alone and miss the opportunity to buy a safer business. Here the price is backed by hard assets, and on a full-price funding example loan repayments are covered about 2.5 times by profit. Other low-risk features include:

• Steady, year-round demand: on a three-year average, every quarter delivers 23% to 26% of annual sales, so there is no off-season to fund
• Strong cash flow: approximately 40% of sales are cash sales, paid at the time of the job, with the remaining 60% on 60-day terms, largely with blue-chip corporate clients and local government, all with strong payment records
• Low stock holding
• Compliance already done: premises upgraded and accredited for the latest industry standards, at the vendor’s cost
• Buyer protections built into the sale: an independent inspection of plant and equipment, and settlement conditional on the key contracts continuing with the new owner
• A four-week vendor handover, with introductions to key clients and contacts

Genuine Reason for Sale

The owners are retiring to spend more time with family. This is a genuine sale, not a business being offloaded, and they are committed to a smooth handover to the right buyer.

Businesses of this calibre do not come around often. Act now to secure a contracted, essential-service business in one of WA’s most desirable regions.
