Founded in 1984 by Ernst Pertler, Pertler is one of Munich’s largest specialized SHK companies. In addition to the classic heating construction and plumbing business, Pertler is a leader in service and maintenance as well as the restoration of water damage. The clientele consists mainly of commercial customers such as planners, architects, housing associations and over 100 property management companies.
As part of the structuring of an early succession solution, the owner family has sold shares to Family Trust. At the same time, Stefan Pertler, the son of the company founder, remains a co-partner and CEO of the company. Since Family Trust’s entry, a second management level with divisional managers has been installed, the training and development concept has been revised, capacity planning and recruitment has been optimized, and employees from adjacent trades have been hired in order to broaden the service portfolio offered and deepen value creation. Due to the high deal flow in this segment, several add-on investments have already been realized.
