Due diligence

What to Look For

Practical guidance from hundreds of real acquisition conversations.

Maintenance Contract Mix

  • Ask what percentage of revenue comes from recurring maintenance agreements versus one-time install jobs.
  • Request revenue split by service type going back three years, along with renewal rates on top commercial and HOA accounts.
  • Maintenance revenue that renews seasonally is predictable and transferable in a way that installation projects simply aren't.
  • Businesses where more than half of revenue is recurring maintenance are much easier to finance and underwrite.

Crew Leadership Stability

  • Ask how long each foreman has been in their role and what they handle day to day.
  • Long-tenured foremen who manage their own crews, schedule routes, and train new hires without the owner involved are what separate a real business from an owner-dependent one.
  • Find out who handles hiring when you need a new crew member — the answer tells you a lot about what your transition will actually look like.

Route Geography and Density

  • Ask for a breakdown of how many jobs each crew runs in a day and how far they drive between stops.
  • Crews working in a few dense zip codes generate very different economics than crews spread across a wide service area.
  • Tight routes in a concentrated area mean better margins and more jobs completed per day — something worth getting excited about when you see it.

Off-Season Revenue

  • Ask for monthly revenue going back two full years so you can see the off-season pattern clearly.
  • Companies that add snow removal, irrigation service, or holiday lighting keep crews working and cash flowing through winter.
  • Understanding how much the winter services contribute helps you plan your first full year as owner.

FAQ

Landscaping Services Business Acquisition

What should I look for when buying a landscaping business?

Focus on three things early: what percentage of revenue is recurring maintenance versus one-time installs, how long the foremen have been in their roles, and what the off-season looks like financially. A company where more than half the revenue comes from maintenance contracts and foremen run routes independently is a very different acquisition than one built around installation projects. Browse landscaping businesses for sale on Rejigg to see what is currently available.

How much does a landscaping business cost?

Most landscaping businesses sell for 2 to 7 times annual profit depending heavily on the contract mix and crew independence. An owner-operated business with mostly install revenue tends to fall at the lower end of that range. A business with recurring maintenance accounts, tenured foremen, and year-round services regularly trades near the top. Use the SBA loan calculator to model what the monthly payments look like at different price points.

How do I evaluate a landscaping business before buying?

Ask for three years of revenue broken out between maintenance and installation work, and for each year ask for the seasonal monthly breakdown. Review the contract list with renewal dates and renewal rate history. Meet the foremen and ask how a typical morning starts and ends. Walk the equipment yard and ask about maintenance schedules. The combination of financial records, contract documentation, and crew conversations gives you a clear picture before you go deep on diligence.

What due diligence questions should I ask about a landscaping business?

Good starting questions: What percentage of revenue is maintenance versus installation? What is the renewal rate on your top commercial and HOA accounts? How long have each of your foremen been in their roles? What does the off-season revenue look like, and what drives it? What is the age and maintenance history of each piece of equipment in the fleet? Do any contracts have language about assignment if ownership changes?

Where can I find landscaping businesses for sale?

Rejigg lists landscaping companies that have been individually sourced and vetted. You can browse landscaping businesses for sale on Rejigg and connect directly with owners. No broker taking a percentage, and listings include financials and contract details so you can quickly filter for what fits your search.

How does seasonality affect buying a landscaping business?

Seasonality is manageable when you understand the full pattern before you close. Ask for monthly revenue and payroll for at least two years so you can see exactly how the business breathes through winter. Companies with snow removal, holiday lighting, or irrigation service smooth out the off-season considerably. If the business does go quiet for a few months, ask how the owner handles crew retention and equipment costs during that period.

Will the crews stay after I buy a landscaping business?

In most successful acquisitions, buyers work with the seller to keep foremen and key crew members through a structured transition. The conversations typically involve confirming compensation stays the same and sometimes include a retention incentive for leads. Before those conversations happen, it helps to know each foreman's tenure, what they earn, and whether their relationship with customers is personal or tied to the company broadly. That information is worth asking for early.
