What Storr Group buys
Storr Group is a West Palm Beach firm, with offices in New York and Austin, that calls itself an operational equity company. It makes a small number of concentrated majority investments in essential service businesses, forms a platform, and then grows it through many local acquisitions, backed by its own team of operating and functional executives. It publishes no revenue, EBITDA or check size range; its press materials place it in the lower middle market.
It has two platforms. SPS PoolCare, started in 2021, is the largest US pool service company, with more than 220 acquisitions. SAS Service Partners, launched in 2023, is an HVAC, plumbing and electrical group with eight. Both are based in Austin and focus on the Sun Belt. A smaller company will almost always meet Storr as an add-on to one of these. SPS buys local and regional pool service companies, and in January 2026 it bought its largest competitor, Pool Troopers. SAS buys established local home service brands.

Greymont’s take
How Storr Group fits a seller
For owners of pool service and residential HVAC, plumbing or electrical companies in the Sun Belt, Storr is an active buyer through SPS PoolCare and SAS Service Partners. A sale usually means joining one of those platforms, not becoming a new one. Both say they work with two kinds of seller: owners who want to keep running the business, and owners ready to retire or leave the industry. Both also say they keep existing staff, and SPS said it would keep Pool Troopers' field teams intact.
Storr's deal pace is high, so an owner should expect a practiced process. SPS took on its first outside debt partner in 2024 and has since passed 200 acquisitions, so an owner who takes equity in the deal should ask how much debt the platform carries, how long Storr expects to hold it, and what happens to the local brand after integration.
Questions owners ask
Does Storr Group buy pool service companies?
Yes, through SPS PoolCare, which Storr lists with more than 220 acquisitions since 2021. Recent deals include Pool Troopers in January 2026, when the number two provider joined the business, and Good Boy Pool Services, which took SPS into Atlanta in July 2026.
Does Storr Group buy HVAC companies?
Yes, through SAS Service Partners, its HVAC, plumbing and electrical platform. Since launching in 2023 with Austin Air Conditioning, it has expanded into Oklahoma, Houston and Dallas, with 2026 purchases including Ideal Air Services, Samm's Heating and Air Conditioning and ProCure Heating & Air.
What size company does Storr Group look for?
Storr does not publish a size range. It calls itself a lower middle market firm, and its add-ons run from local pool and HVAC companies up to Pool Troopers, then the second largest provider in the industry.
Can an owner keep working after selling to a Storr platform?
Yes. SPS PoolCare and SAS Service Partners both say owners who want to keep working can stay on, while owners ready to retire can sell outright. Both also say they retain the existing staff.
