This business provides services to seventy-six plus accounts and is the most significant provider of pool maintenance services in the four surrounding counties.

The current schedule 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 could be purchased, but is not required, - Market Outlook / Competition
- This business serves a four-county area and has very little competition. The business spends little on advertising and is growing as much as available manpower will allow. The major clients are individual homes and commercial establishments. He services a lot of weekend ranches and vacation rentals. Weather events in the Hill Country provide many opportunities for additional service work throughout the year for cleanups and repairs.
This is a place you would want to raise a family without the challenging issues typical of a big city environment!!!! - Opportunities for Growth
- The one skilled tech and the Owner, plus the two part-time trainees are able to handle the 76 accounts on a regular schedule; however, that leaves only 1 day/week to market for and make repairs and improvements to existing equipment or to do the adding of features that would enhance the use of the pool by existing clients, which is where the profit is made. If an Owner came in and provided more assistance to the crew, more focus could be placed on the sale and/or upgrade of pools and spas. To do so would be very profitable.
