Here is a rare opportunity to acquire one of the most established home services businesses in the Southeast — a gutter protection and installation company serving a four-county territory in one of the fastest-growing regions of the country. This is not a startup or a turnaround. It is a cash-flowing, operationally tight business with a 70% proposal close rate, zero recorded instances of customer non-payment in over a decade, and gross margins that have expanded as the owner completed a strategic transition to a fully employed W-2 crew. Revenue has grown from $388K in 2023 to $574K in 2025, and Seller's Discretionary Earnings have averaged $223K annually over the three-year period. What makes this business genuinely difficult to replicate is the combination of decades of local name recognition, thousands of established customer relationships, exclusive dealer territory rights for a proprietary gutter guard system, and a physical presence that has remained constant while competitors have come and gone. The business operates with extraordinary capital efficiency: very low rent, no paid digital advertising, minimal capital expenditure, and a cash-collection model with no meaningful accounts receivable. Nearly all normalized earnings are available to a new owner as free cash flow. The seller is transitioning to other entrepreneurial pursuits and has offered to remain available post-close — including as a commission-based sales representative one to two days per week — a meaningful arrangement given his relationship-driven approach is a core driver of the industry-leading close rate. A trained, experienced lead installer is already in place and has confirmed willingness to stay through and beyond the transition. Growth levers are clearly identified and largely untapped: digital marketing (the business currently spends nothing on paid advertising), territory expansion into an adjacent metro with no competing dealers, price optimization, and complementary service additions. A motivated buyer with a relationship orientation and modest operational experience could step into a business that is already performing — and accelerate it.

Key diligence, valuation, financing, and transition considerations for buyers evaluating building and construction business acquisitions.
Signed contracts, change-order patterns, and bonding capacity tell you what you're really buying; a big trailing year with an empty pipeline is a trap, and bonding is often tied to the owner personally.
Many trades require a licensed qualifier that may leave with the seller. Verify what you must hold before you can legally operate.
A plumbing or HVAC company with a service-and-maintenance base is worth far more than one living on new-construction bids — service agreements generate steady recurring revenue and replacement leads.
Receivables, retainage, and work-in-process tie up real cash between billing and collection; establish the need and whether it's in the deal.

Trucks, heavy equipment, and related-party rent distort earnings. Tour the fleet, check deferred maintenance, and stress the discretionary earnings.
