Business description
This Company is a licensed, insured HVAC and commercial refrigeration services contractor with over 11 years of operating history in one of Florida’s fastest-growing markets. The Company holds a Florida HVAC/R Contractor license and serves both residential and commercial customers with a differentiated specialty in commercial kitchen equipment repair and rooftop unit (RTU) applications — a niche segment with less competition and stronger margins than general residential HVAC. The business was built entirely through word-of-mouth referrals and repeat customer relationships, resulting in a near-zero marketing cost structure and over 100 five-star Google reviews. Long-standing commercial accounts in the hotel and restaurant sectors provide a durable recurring revenue base. The Company provides 24/7 emergency service, flat-rate pricing transparency, and authorized warranty repair services for leading brands — capabilities that have cemented its reputation in the local market. 2025 represents a significant performance step-up with SDE growing to $452K (37% margin) on $1.22M revenue, reflecting operating leverage and improved commercial contract mix. 2026 is tracking ahead of pace — $757K in revenue and $241K in SDE were already achieved through May 2026 alone. The 2026 full-year projection of $1.5M revenue and $557K SDE reflects the annualized pace of YTD performance.
