HVAC, Plumbing & Mechanical Trades · Vancouver, BC

Sell your hvac & plumbing business in Vancouver

HVAC and plumbing companies sell for higher multiples than almost any other trade because they have recurring service revenue, sticky customer relationships, and increasing PE and strategic buyer interest. We've helped HVAC owners across BC and Alberta sell to private equity, regional consolidators, and individual operators — usually at multiples of 3.5x–5x SDE for owner-operated and 5x–8x EBITDA for established companies with management depth.

In Vancouver: Vancouver's economy spans tech (Shopify, Hootsuite, Mogo), film/media, hospitality, professional services, real estate, healthcare, trades, and an enormous Asian-language SME sector. Foreign-buyer interest from the US, China, India, and Iran is consistently strong.
