BUSINESS FOR SALE. ASHTON WINDOW CLEANING & SOLAR PANEL CLEANING SERVICES. R1.4 m. Our four employees clean 12 small houses per day with a minimum charge of R890, and there is a yearly price increase on the 1st January every year. We also clean many Big houses, consulates, offices, show houses, B&B’s and car showrooms etc. We are a well known local Window Cleaning company who have been using the same cell number for 22 years and thousands of people know us. The business includes a 2019 Ford Ranger 2.2 Lt. Auto, which I bought new for cash and has only been driven by the company owner. There is a custom roof rack with 6 x 6mt, and 3 x 9mt aluminium double ladders and 2 x step ladders. We have many 5* reviews from local customers who have been with us for many years and 80% of them live on security estates along the West Coast from Paarden Eiland to Melkbostrand. We also cover Panorama, Durbanville, Century City and the other 20% are local commercial properties. (Ladder work only, no rope access) Our cleaners are picked up at 7.30am sharp on Blouberg road and we operate within a 15 km radius which keeps our traveling time and diesel costs down. On one day of the week we clean Atlantic beach golf estate, then on another day….. SOLAR PANEL CLEANING: We also offer our customers a solar panel cleaning service if the panels are easily accessible. There is a huge opportunity here to expand the business with just a small investment because you will already have a team who are used to working on high ladders. Our turnover is good considering the interest rates have not come down yet, but over the course of a year our turnover could be increased 30% + using our existing four cleaners. I am retiring and have not been looking for extra work although a new owner with some energy, could easily double the profits with more customers and two more good cleaners. Our new customers find us by word of mouth, advertising on the bakkie, our website or on Google Search and Maps where you will find our 5*reviews. Besides wages R230pd and one tank of diesel p.m our overheads are low as we work from home. I buy soap, squeegees, sheepskins, buckets and uniforms for R10,000 p.y. My accountant has all of the numberd invoices and bank statements going back years. Marlene will be happy to accompany a new owner out on the rounds to introduce them to our regular customers. Our cleaners know where they are going, what they have to clean and in what order, this will reduce any stress from taking over a new business and you can always call us for advice. The business owes nothing. If you have any questions we can talk but please bring proof of funds. Thank you in advance. www.ashtonandco.co.za Business Cell: Marlene: 072 4247778.
