We consolidate specialist SHK businesses – building the national platform for fast & high-quality plumbing, heating, and HVAC services.
TEO Gruppe is growing as a fully integrated group of companies in the German SHK trades. Shared structures, real operational levers and entrepreneurial ownership create what individual businesses can rarely achieve alone: a lasting competitive edge in a market with over 50,000 owner-operated businesses.
We bring together the strongest SHK businesses in Germany. The group learns from the best – in processes, leadership and craft. Together we build the scale and weight that matters: with leading manufacturers and wholesalers.
Your business, your name, your team – that stays. Regional strength and entrepreneurial character are not in conflict with the group, they are its foundation. Local customer relationships and the Meisterbetrieb are fully preserved.
Accounting, procurement, HR and digital tools – centrally organised so the focus stays on the craft. While good craft is decided on location, AI will be a genuine enabler – faster diagnostics, smarter scheduling, less administration.
Combined volume secures better terms from manufacturers and materials suppliers. Shared warehouse structures improve availability and reduce response times in the field.
Accounting, HR and dispatching are provided centrally. We also develop the organisation through structured apprenticeship programmes and systematic quality management.
Digital service management, scheduling and electronic service records: we invest in the infrastructure as a group – and share the efficiency advantage.
Together we expand our preventive maintenance contract offering and secure manufacturer certifications – tools that sustainably strengthen customer retention and margin.
You want to hand your business over responsibly and step back. TEO Gruppe acquires your stake and actively carries your life's work forward.
You stay entrepreneurially active and we take a majority stake. As a group member you retain responsibility and share in the value creation of the whole platform.
Which path fits – we will figure that out together.
A short, confidential conversation. Whether strategic questions or financial implications – we are happy to talk.
The Letter of Intent locks in valuation, structure and next steps – a binding milestone for both sides.
A structured, efficient review phase. We work quickly and transparently – with the goal of reaching clarity fast.
Contract signing and operational integration. Based on due diligence findings, we start day 1 with a shared plan.
Behind TEO Gruppe stands an entrepreneurially minded team with experience in M&A, operational services and building company groups. We think long-term – as co-entrepreneurs, not as administrators.
