Specialist M&A advisory for building services and facilities management businesses (fire and life safety, electrical, water hygiene and Legionella, lift and elevator maintenance, HVAC, plumbing, security, TIC) and specialist healthcare including clinics and care homes. £500K–£100M. UK & US.
DealFlowAgent is a specialist M&A advisory firm for owners of testing, inspection and certification (TIC), building services and facilities management, and specialist healthcare businesses across the UK and US. Our Partners lead every sale personally, supported by our own research tools, and run a confidential, competitive process with selected acquirers.
What is included in the free valuation report?
The report sets out an indicative valuation today, how that value could move through to the end of 2027 under different scenarios, the acquirers most relevant to your business and why they may buy, and the levers that could increase value before a sale. It takes a few minutes to complete, and a Partner reviews it before it is sent to you. There is no cost and no obligation.
How do you find the right buyers for my business?
We draw on a network of 13,000+ self-registered acquirers, including trade buyers, private equity-backed groups and search funds, alongside our own research into who is actively acquiring in your sector. No acquirer is approached about your business until you have engaged us and approved the approach.
How do you keep my sale confidential?
Your details stay with our team. Acquirers first see an anonymised profile, and your company name is only shared with those you approve. DealFlowAgent is independent of trade bodies and regulators, and we never pass your information to them.
What types of businesses do you specialise in?
We specialise in testing, inspection and certification (TIC) and building services and facilities management businesses: fire and life safety, electrical, water hygiene and Legionella, lift and elevator maintenance, HVAC, plumbing and security. We also advise specialist healthcare businesses, including clinics, dental, veterinary and care homes. We typically advise on businesses valued at £500K to £100M enterprise value across the UK and US.
How long does a typical sale take?
A sale typically takes four to six months from launch to completion. It takes longer when we first spend time preparing and growing the business, which some owners choose to do over six to 24 months. The stages are valuation and preparation, a confidential approach to selected acquirers, a managed competitive process, then due diligence and completion.
How are your fees structured?
Our fees are success-based and are set out in writing on the first confidential call, before any engagement begins. There are no hidden charges.
How is DealFlowAgent different from a business broker?
We do not list businesses publicly or negotiate with a single buyer. We run a managed, competitive process with selected acquirers, led by a Partner from valuation to completion, and our research tools track which acquirers are active in your sector.
How do I know if DealFlowAgent is right for my business?
If you own a profitable business in one of our sectors and may consider a sale in the next six to 36 months, the free valuation report is the best first step. You can then book a confidential call with a Partner to discuss your timing and options.
