This is a well-established and profitable dryer vent cleaning, repair, and installation business that has been serving its market for more than 20 years. Operating in an essential home and property maintenance sector, the business provides services to residential homeowners, commercial customers, condominium communities, and apartment complexes, creating a diversified and growing customer base.
With 2025 gross sales of $273,896 and Seller's Discretionary Earnings (SDE) of $76,353, the business offers a solid foundation for an owner-operator or strategic buyer seeking a scalable service business. The operation has remained resilient through multiple economic cycles, including the Great Recession and the COVID era, demonstrating the strength and necessity of the services provided. Customers rely on the business to solve safety, efficiency, and maintenance issues that cannot be ignored, resulting in consistent demand.
The business is currently operated with a lean and efficient team consisting of the owner and two experienced service technicians. Each technician operates from a dedicated service vehicle and manages customer appointments, estimates, service delivery, and payment collection. The owner primarily oversees scheduling, operations management, customer communication, and technician supervision while working approximately 35 hours per week.
A key advantage of this opportunity is its low-overhead structure. The business is home-based and utilizes a small storage facility for supplies and materials, eliminating the burden of expensive commercial real estate. Included in the sale are approximately $50,000 in furniture, fixtures, equipment, and service-related assets, along with approximately $5,000 in inventory, providing a turnkey transition for a new owner.
The company has developed recurring revenue opportunities through its repeat customer program and ongoing relationships with multi-unit residential properties that require regular dryer vent maintenance. These established accounts create a strong platform for future growth and customer retention.
Perhaps the most compelling aspect of this opportunity is its expansion potential. The current owner has intentionally operated the business in maintenance mode while preparing for retirement. According to the seller, opportunities exist to accelerate growth through enhanced online marketing initiatives, expanded networking efforts, and increased outreach to property managers and multi-unit housing operators. A motivated buyer with additional marketing focus could capitalize on these opportunities and build upon an already proven business model.
The seller is retiring and is prepared to support a smooth transition to new ownership. This is an attractive opportunity to acquire a profitable, established service business with a loyal customer base, strong industry fundamentals, low operating overhead, and substantial room for future expansion.

Retirement
This home-based service business operates with minimal overhead and includes approximately $55,000 in assets, consisting of service equipment, tools, furniture, fixtures, inventory, and two technician-operated service vehicles. The business also benefits from established operating systems, a repeat customer program, and an experienced 3-person team. A small storage unit is utilized for supplies and materials, providing an efficient and scalable operating model.
Seller will provide appropriate training and support as mutually agreed upon by both parties to ensure a successful transition.
The business operates in an essential service industry with consistent demand from residential homeowners, commercial properties, condominiums, and apartment communities. The seller reports limited competition in the market and a growing customer base supported by repeat business and recurring maintenance services. Increasing awareness of dryer vent safety, fire prevention, and energy efficiency continues to support long-term industry demand, while established relationships with multi-unit properties provide a strong competitive advantage.
Significant growth opportunities exist through increased online marketing, local search optimization, and expanded digital advertising efforts. Additional revenue can be generated by strengthening relationships with property managers, apartment communities, and condominium associations that require recurring maintenance services. The current owner has operated the business in maintenance mode while preparing for retirement, creating substantial upside potential for a growth-focused buyer seeking to expand market share and recurring revenue.
