Full Acquisition ($295,000 preferred) or Flexible Partnership ($125,000–$250,000 for a 30%-80% stake).
Retaining a minority interest alongside a local operating partner is open for discussion.)
BUSINESS OVERVIEW
The business is currently managed remotely by an owner based in Alberta. Operations have intentionally focused on selected higher-margin commercial projects, while the residential division and broader local sales opportunities have not been actively pursued.
The business operated at a deliberately reduced level for approximately four years. During that period, it did not actively pursue new clients & accepted primarily occasional projects from existing customers. The objective was to maintain established client relationships & the subcontractor network rather than maximize revenue.
Financial Trajectory & Performance
2024: Gross revenue of $106,238 & net income of $10,023. Operations remained limited primarily to work from existing and repeat clients.
2025 – Partial Operating Year
• Gross revenue: $128,054 Net income: $25,319
• Operations became more active during the winter, with a focus on selected commercial projects.
2026 – Year to Date
• Gross invoiced revenue: $479,745
• Preliminary estimated income: Approximately $147,000
• Estimated operating margin: Approximately 31% before corporate tax & final year-end adjustments
Verification: Supporting 2026 invoices, matching bank-deposit spreadsheets, & redacted bank statements provided to qualified buyers.
Low-Touch Operational Model
No Direct Employees: 100% of jobs are executed by established, professional subcontractors managing their own crews.
No payroll headaches. Owner's Current Role: 1–2 hours per week of remote admin (quoting, invoicing, oversight) from Alberta.
The Bottleneck: Current remote setup prevents face-to-face local sales, resulting in a modest estimation close rate.
No painting experience is required for a new local owner to fix this sales bottleneck.
Client Base: Core database of 4–5 established, recurring commercial accounts.
CUSTOMERS AND LEAD GENERATION
The company has longstanding relationships with several commercial customers that provide repeat opportunities. Project frequency varies according to each customer’s maintenance, renovation and construction requirements.
The business currently relies primarily on:
• Organic search visibility (SEO)
• An established website
• A five-star Google Business Profile with more than 160 reviews
• Repeat commercial customers
• Referrals and historical brand recognition
The company currently receives approximately 4–20 residential & commercial inquiries per week, subject to seasonal fluctuations. Due to the owner’s location, inquiries are heavily filtered, and only selected commercial opportunities are presently accepted.
No active advertising campaign is currently being operated.
GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES
A local, actively involved owner or operating partner could pursue several areas of growth:
• Improve face-to-face sales consultations and follow-up
• Increase commercial estimate conversion
• Accept a greater proportion of qualified local projects
• Reactivate the residential painting division
• Introduce paid advertising & structured lead follow-up
• Expand relationships with property managers, general contractors and facility-management companies
• Add an estimator or project coordinator as project volume increases
PARTNERSHIP OPTION
The seller may consider selling a 30%–80% ownership stake, allowing the seller to retain a 20%–70% interest depending on the agreed structure. This would allow a qualified buyer to participate as a local operating partner at an investment level appropriate to the ownership percentage being acquired.
A complete 100% acquisition at $295,000 remains available for a buyer seeking full ownership and control.
EQUIPMENT AND INVENTORY
More than $25,000 in estimated physical assets included

About the Business
- Years in Operation
- 16
- Employees
- 2 Contractors
Subcontractor has about 7 to 10 employees - Facilities & Assets
- The business operates with minimal fixed overhead and does not require a dedicated warehouse or storefront. It has access to shared corporate office and boardroom space in Metro Vancouver for approximately $170 per month.
The sale includes more than $25,000 in commercial painting equipment and tools, including a Graco Ultra Max II 695 airless sprayer, a Graco 495 airless sprayer, a 4,500 PSI commercial pressure washer, professional ladders and assorted trade equipment.
Digital and operating assets include the established website and domain, business telephone number, Google Business Profile with 160+ reviews, and existing operating systems. Transfers are subject to the final purchase agreement and applicable platform requirements. - Market Outlook / Competition
- The business serves Metro Vancouver’s residential and commercial painting market. It currently focuses on selected commercial projects, while residential project intake has been intentionally paused.
The company receives approximately 5 to 20 inbound enquiries per week without active advertising, although enquiry volume varies by season. Leads are generated primarily through organic search visibility, repeat clients and referrals.
The business has an established online presence, a 5-star Google Business Profile with more than 160 reviews, and relationships with approximately four to five repeat commercial accounts. Competition exists throughout Metro Vancouver, but the company’s operating history, online reputation and established client relationships provide a strong foundation for a local owner. - Opportunities for Growth
- The business is currently managed remotely from Edmonton and accepts only selected commercial projects. A local owner could pursue growth by attending estimates personally, improving response times and following up consistently with prospective clients.
Additional opportunities include reopening the residential division, introducing paid advertising, hiring a sales-focused project manager and accepting a greater portion of the existing inbound enquiries. The business currently receives approximately 5 to 20 organic enquiries per week, subject to seasonal fluctuations, without active advertising.
The established online presence, subcontractor network and repeat commercial client base provide a foundation for expansion without requiring the buyer to build a new operation from the beginning.
