A rare opportunity to acquire a premium, fully built day spa in North Houston at an exceptional entry price of $100,000. This is not a startup — it is a proven, results-driven concept with an established reputation, a loyal clientele, and a clear path to restored profitability from day one. In its first full year of operation (2024), the business generated over $500,000 in discretionary earnings while cultivating a dedicated client base spanning Cypress, Spring, The Woodlands, Champion Forest, and Tomball. Even as hours were scaled back and marketing all but eliminated in 2025, the spa continued to generate revenue — a strong testament to customer loyalty, brand strength, and the quality of the services delivered. The spa specializes in advanced skincare and non-invasive body contouring, offering a carefully curated menu of high-end treatments including custom facials, chemical peels, nano-needling, RF body contouring, and LED anti-aging therapy. Service packages range from $800 to $8,995, with an average ticket of $559 — well above industry averages and reflective of an affluent, results-oriented clientele that values efficacy over price. The business is currently in a paused state, presenting a new owner with the ability to step into a fully operational platform — complete with equipment, systems, and branding — without the capital outlay, timeline, or risk associated with a ground-up launch. A robust client database comprising over 5700 clients with 90 of them being active provides immediate reactivation potential and a fast path back to revenue. The client base itself is worth the price! The seller is fully committed to a smooth transition and will provide support with staffing, training, and operational ramp-up. With focused ownership and a re-engaged marketing strategy, there is a compelling and well-defined opportunity to restore — and potentially surpass — the business's peak earnings. Ideal for an owner-operator or growth-oriented group looking to establish or expand a presence in the fast-growing aesthetics and wellness sector.

Attention: All pool maintenance business owners or workers interested in moving to Texas,.This is the business for you.

This company’s business in 2024 was $227,798. Sales were broken down by the following categories: $36,629 (16.1%) in Repair Labor; $30,304.51 (13.3%) in Part sales; Chemical sales were $31,349 (13.8%), Service Work totaled $123,670 (54.3%), and Special Service Call work of $5,845 (2.5%).

They have 43 accounts in one county (commercial and residential with room for more business), 20 accounts in another county (commercial and residential with room for more business), 5 accounts in a third county (mostly large ranches that pay above average), and 3 accounts in the fourth county (lots of untapped potential). There is a lot of expansion that could be done with this business. The cost of the business is $229,750 (1.01 times annual sales). Prior to 2024, gross sales were $212,811 (2023), $207,369 (2022), $220,051 (20212), and $166,853 (2020). Steadily increasing post-covid volume makes this business an excellent SBA loan candidate.

The current scheuule only allows one day for marketing repairs and improvements to existing equipment or to the adding of features that would enhance the use of the pool by existing clients. A working owner would add substantial profit to the business. The real estate is zoned residential but has been operated as a home based business since 2009. If one wanted to expand the use of the property to include retail, rezoning should not be a problem. The real estate availability cannot be guaranteed at the time you choose to purchase the business.

Cofounder & CEO
Key diligence, valuation, financing, and transition considerations for buyers evaluating service business acquisitions.
A pest-control, cleaning, or landscaping firm with recurring agreements is worth far more than one living on one-off jobs; get the contracted share and the renewal rate.
A few large accounts can carry — and walk with — the business; review the top customers, contract lengths, and cancellation terms.
In many service businesses the owner is the salesperson and the trusted contact; understand who holds the customers and the transition plan.
These are labor-heavy; understand staffing, turnover, wage pressure, and whether key crews stay.
Pest control, security, legal, and waste businesses carry licenses and obligations that may be tied to the owner — and some, like dry cleaners, carry environmental exposure.
Low-capital service businesses are easy to dress up; scrutinize owner add-backs, vehicle and equipment condition, and whether the margins hold.
