EBITDA / Repeat Route-Based Services / Installed Specialty Equipment Founded in 2009 and headquartered near Jefferson City, Missouri, the Company is a full-service septic, sewer, hydro-excavation, and underground-services contractor serving residential, commercial, municipal, and utility customers throughout Central Missouri and across the state. The Company provides septic and grease-trap pumping, drain and sewer service, septic-system installation, hydro-excavation, CCTV pipeline inspection, sewer and water-line installation, and trenchless pipe relining.

An acquirer would gain repeat service routes, municipal relationships, licensed personnel, experienced field leadership, ServiceTitan infrastructure, and a significant specialty-equipment base. The business could also serve as a compelling new platform for an investor entering the wastewater and underground-services sector. Its central location provides a natural hub between St. Louis and Kansas City, while its broad service offering creates multiple avenues for organic growth and future add-on acquisitions. Potential value-creation opportunities include expanding septic and grease-trap route density, cross-selling inspection and relining services into the existing customer base, increasing trenchless pipe-relining utilization, pursuing additional municipal awards, leveraging greater bonding capacity, and acquiring smaller local pumpers and specialty contractors. The founder is willing to provide a six-month full-time transition followed by six months in an advisory capacity and is open to remaining longer in a non-ownership role. Financial information is management-provided, unaudited, and subject to confirmatory diligence and a Quality of Earnings review. TTM results reflect a lower-subcontracting project mix than FY2025, and annual performance may vary based on the timing of municipal and utility awards.

Cofounder & CEO
Key diligence, valuation, financing, and transition considerations for buyers evaluating building and construction business acquisitions.
Signed contracts, change-order patterns, and bonding capacity tell you what you're really buying; a big trailing year with an empty pipeline is a trap, and bonding is often tied to the owner personally.
Many trades require a licensed qualifier that may leave with the seller. Verify what you must hold before you can legally operate.
A plumbing or HVAC company with a service-and-maintenance base is worth far more than one living on new-construction bids — service agreements generate steady recurring revenue and replacement leads.
Receivables, retainage, and work-in-process tie up real cash between billing and collection; establish the need and whether it's in the deal.
The estimator, project managers, and lead crews carry the business. Identify the key people, their pay, and retention after close.
Trucks, heavy equipment, and related-party rent distort earnings. Tour the fleet, check deferred maintenance, and stress the discretionary earnings.
