BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

All clients are within a 6 mile radius

For sale is a well established, local residential service business that has served the Worthington area exclusively for 17 years. The business has been appraised at $675,000 by Business Valuation Specialists. In addition to complete landscape solutions (aeration, bush/tree removal, cleanups, hedge/tree trimming, junk hauling, mulching, planting, power washing, sod, soil & seed, snow removal, stump grinding), starting in 2024 we have added complete in-house hardscaping (patios/walkways/retaining walls/concrete driveways) and fencing (wood/metal/chain-link/vinyl) to our list of quality services. All of our clients live within a 6 mile radius of each other, making running projects and providing quotes significantly more efficient than any other residential service business.

All equipment is in perfect working order with many items added this year including the 2011 F250 and over 3/4 of the power tools. Also included is a 2004 Dodge Ram in perfect running order as a complete back-up or secondary truck. One piece of equipment included is a portable stump grinder that fits in bed of the truck. This machine allows us to remove trees and bushes including the stump and is also great at digging holes for bushes and trees, saving hours per job. Unlike other companies, with this machine we can remove bushes and trees, grind the stumps, remove the chips and plant all at the same time.

I currently have 2 excellent foremans, one for landscaping/fencing and one for hardscaping who run all ground operations completely independently.

Over $20,000 was invested on a new state-of-the-art web-site which not only showcases all of the services we offer along with local referrals, but has a custom-built back end which facilities for all service requests (including scheduling). The website also organizes each estimate day geographically, it keeps the database up to date, and it allows customers to sign contracts, eliminating the need for expensive third-party document signing programs.

Overall Claytons Residential Services is a very profitable, efficient, quality-focused company with excellent equipment and a very reliable crew.

Facilities
To keep overhead low, I keep all equipment in 1/2 of my garage at my home. I park the trailer and both trucks in the driveway.
Competition
Location is a big deal as all of my clients are in a well-to-do area of Columbus. As mentioned above all of these clients are within a 6 mile radius. Of course there are other landscape companies, but none of them have the reputation that my company has of being very high-quality and reliable. I've been doing direct marketing exclusively for 17 years including beautiful fliers (shown in posting) and yard signs. Because of this, most people in my neighborhoods know my company and have heard good things even if they're never worked with me before.
Growth & Expansion
As far as growth is concerned, we just launched the hardscaping and fencing businesses which are both considerably more profitable services than the landscaping business. Additional outdoor services like lawn mowing and regular applications could be added to further grow the company. Of course, once a client trusts a business with these services one could also offer deck building, siding, roofing, painting, house cleaning, home remodeling or any other residential service to the roster as well.
Financing
Looking to get $300,000 down and would be willing to finance the rest.
Support & Training
Either me or my foremans would be happy to train you on all the services that we offer. Additionally I would be happy to train the new owner on the business side from doing quotes to scheduling to collecting.
