R 1,400,000

Ashton Window Cleaning & Solar Panel Cleaning Services. R1,400,000. Includes up to date financials. The www.ashtonandco.co.za website and our advertising on Google Search and Maps where you will find our 5* reviews. This is a great local business which we have built up over the past 22 years using the same Cell number: 072 4247778. Our four man team are busy everyday and turnover is up compared to previous years and this will improve when the interest rate drops. The business can easily be operated by most people including an active retired person or couple who want to get out and about. Paying a manager driver is not necessary do it yourself, keep control and keep the money we do simples. Our four employees can clean twelve small houses per day on the same estate with a R890 minimum charge. We also clean many big houses, consulates, offices, show houses, b&b’s, and car showrooms etc. The business includes a 2019 Ford Ranger 2.2L diesel auto, which I bought new for cash so the business owes nothing. It has only been driven by the company owner Marlene and the interior covered from new. There is a colour coded canopy with custom roof rack and 6 x 6mt, and 3 x 9mt aluminium ladders and 2 step ladders. We have many loyal local customers who have been with us for many years, and 80% of them live on security estates along the Westcoast from Woodbridge Island to Melkbostrand. We also cover Paarden Eiland to Century City to Durbanville to Panorama 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 traveling time and diesel costs down. On one day we clean Atlantic Beach golf estate, then on the next day Sunset Beach ……. *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. We have never chased work our customers have found us by word of mouth, advertising on the bakkie, our website or on google search and maps. Besides wages R230 p.d each and one tank of diesel p.m, our overheads are low because we work from home. I only buy soap, buckets, squeegees, sheepskins and uniforms R12,000 max per year. We have a yearly 10% price increase every January. My accountant has the recent up to date financials and all of the numberd invoices and bank statements going back years. Marlene will be happy to accompany any new owner out on the rounds for a couple of weeks to introduce them to some of our regular customers. Our cleaners know the area, what they have to clean and in what order so this will help reduce any stress from taking over a new business. We have spent two decades organising our round so it is easy with less time driving and more time cleaning. However if you need any advice you can always WhatsApp Marlene. If you have any questions that are not covered here we can have a meeting but please bring proof of funds. Thank you in advance. www.ashtonandco.co.za Malcolm Ashton: 082 6678644. No Time Wasters.
