CONFIDENTIAL
FOR SALE
660229
Established 2021, this is a well-run commercial cleaning and grounds maintenance business. It provides commercial cleaning contracts in the Reading area and grounds maintenance across Surrey. The business has been under current ownership since July 2026 and generates approximately £140,000 in annual revenue, with net profit of around £40,000 before owner drawings.
The client base includes education, public sector and private commercial clients, with most income coming from recurring contracts. Standard terms include a minimum three-month commitment followed by one month’s notice, giving reliable and predictable monthly revenue.
Since the change of ownership, the business has been restructured to focus on higher-margin recurring commercial work. Operations run on modern systems, with Jobber for scheduling, time tracking and job management, and QuickBooks for accounts and payroll. The business is VAT registered and holds £5m public and employers’ liability insurance.
The team includes directly employed, DBS-checked cleaners on PAYE, supported by vetted subcontractors and office-based scheduling and client coordination support. Documented employment contracts, policies and a structured recruitment process are in place.
The sale includes one company van, along with the brand, website, client contracts, goodwill and operating systems.
There is clear room to grow through active business development, expanding grounds maintenance contracts, and adding new service lines. The business would suit a hands-on owner-operator or an existing cleaning or facilities management company looking for a bolt-on.
The owners have other career and business commitments and cannot give the business the time it needs to grow. A structured handover and ongoing support will be provided to ensure a smooth transition
