This is an established franchise business in the indoor air quality and mold remediation industry, operating across four protected, contiguous territories in one of the wealthiest and fastest-growing regions in the country (Northern Virginia). The business has been operated by the same ownership since its founding in 2020 and has grown revenue from roughly $160,000 in its first year to approximately $458,000 in its most recently completed fiscal year — a consistent, multi-year growth trend under current ownership.
The business operates under a nationally recognized home-services franchise brand specializing in mold, mildew, and indoor air quality remediation for residential and light-commercial customers. A new owner steps into an operating platform rather than a start-up: franchisor training and support, proprietary treatment protocols and EPA-registered products, an established marketing system, a network of location-specific microsites generating inbound leads, and a trained field crew equipped with a company-owned service vehicle fleet.
Approximately 95% of current revenue is residential, with commercial work largely untapped — one of several concrete, seller-identified growth opportunities available to a new owner from day one. The business is asset-light: no real estate is owned or leased, and operations are field-based, delivered at customer locations.
The current owner is a certified indoor environmental professional and is offering the business as part of a planned transition out of day-to-day ownership. The owner is open to a reasonable transition and consulting period to transfer customer and referral relationships, franchisor systems knowledge, and technical know-how to the new owner.
This is a strong opportunity for an owner-operator, a licensed contractor or remediation professional looking to add a recognized franchise brand and protected territory, or a strategic buyer looking to add adjacent territory to an existing home-services platform. Financing flexibility from the seller and the franchisor's structured onboarding make this an accessible entry point into an in-demand, recession-resilient service category.
