Hands-Off Cleaning Business - 40+ Years | SDE $140K-$180K

For Sale | $300,000

Cleaning

A rare opportunity to acquire a highly reputable and long-established carpet cleaning, pest control, and surface restoration business servicing South Brisbane through to the northern Gold Coast. Operating for more than 40 years, the business is widely recognised for quality workmanship, strong repeat trade, and exceptional customer service, generating consistent demand across both residential and commercial clients.

With revenue increasing year on year and profitability now improving following recent changes to the staffing and operating model, the business has entered a new phase of performance and stability. Legacy cost structures and inflated family wages that previously suppressed margins have been removed, pricing has been aligned to market, and day-to-day operations are now handled by staff, allowing the current owner to remain largely hands-off while earnings continue to strengthen.

A recent expansion into tile and hard-surface restoration, combined with a strong digital presence and excellent Google search visibility, continues to drive consistent inbound enquiry and provides further upside from an already proven platform.

Key Highlights


Adjusted FY25 SDE of approximately $126,000


FY26 projected SDE of ~$140,000 under the current hands-off structure


Upside SDE north of $180,000 following full implementation of a virtual assistant and further admin optimisation

Home-based, fully mobile business,no lease required


Large customer database with high levels of repeat business


Multiple service lines across carpet cleaning, pest control, and restoration


Fully equipped vehicles and substantial plant & equipment included
