Plumbing Business Valuation: Multiples & Financial Benchmarks
FAQs
How much does it cost to buy a plumbing business?
The cost to purchase a plumbing company can vary significantly based on location, size, and revenue, but the median asking price for plumbing businesses analyzed is approximately $600,000.
How much do plumbing business owners earn?
Plumbing business owners report a median annual revenue of $1,000,000 and median annual earnings of $250,000. This represents seller's discretionary earnings, which include the owner’s salary and any additional financial benefits the owner receives.
How do I value a plumbing business?
Valuing a plumbing company typically involves assessing its annual revenue and earnings, then comparing it to other plumbing businesses selling or recently sold in a similar market. Buyers and sellers typically start by applying valuation multiples derived from similar businesses that are selling, or recently sold.
Plumbing business revenue multiples range from 0.46 to 1.07, with a median of 0.71. Earnings multiples range from 1.76 to 3.36, with the median at 2.50. This means the average plumbing business may sell for around 0.71 times its annual revenue, and 2.5 times its annual owner earnings.
