Part of the Reads Advice Partners network, we focus exclusively on heating, ventilation, and air conditioning businesses.
Reads M&A Advisory is a credible business brokerage with over a decade of experience selling businesses across finance, accountancy, private equity and family office markets. We have worked with over 17,000 accountancy firms and built strong relationships with private equity investors, business investors and family offices actively seeking acquisition opportunities.
Many of those buyers have been asking us specifically for HVAC businesses. Gas Safe and OFTEC-certified engineering teams are critically short in supply. PE-backed platforms are actively acquiring established operators rather than training from scratch. F-Gas accreditation, REFCOM certification, and MCS heat pump capability are commanding acquisition premiums that simply did not exist five years ago. That demand is the reason we launched a dedicated specialist service for HVAC sales.
We are upfront that this is a new dedicated focus for us. We have not sold HVAC businesses before. What we bring is a substantial buyer network already asking for HVAC opportunities, over a decade of business sales process expertise, and access to consultants, finance directors and acquisition specialists who help prepare your business for sale.
If you are exploring a sale, you will deal directly with our HVAC Senior Specialist. Not a sales team. Not a call centre. A direct conversation with someone who will personally see your sale through.
Simon Read leads Reads M&A Advisory and works directly with every client from initial conversation through to completion. There is no sales team. There are no junior analysts running your deal.
When you call, you speak to the person who has access to the buyer network and will manage your sale from start to finish. Simon understands the business sale process in detail: from preparing accounts for buyer scrutiny, to managing heads of terms, to ensuring Gas Safe registrations and F-Gas certifications are handled correctly in the transfer documentation.
This direct, personal approach means nothing is lost in translation. Your business is positioned accurately, your concerns are heard by the person making decisions, and you always know exactly where you stand in the process.
Simon brings over a decade of business sales experience, working with business owners across finance, accountancy, and professional services markets. He has built a buyer network of private equity investors, family offices, and trade acquirers who are actively seeking acquisitions in the HVAC sector right now.
Every conversation starts with understanding what matters most to you: the price, the legacy, the staff, the timing, or simply getting out with certainty. Nothing is decided until you are ready.
