Description
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.

Other Business Interests
Facilities & Assets
The business operates from a commercial office with adjacent storage, located on a high-traffic highway in Western North Carolina. The sale includes three commercial vehicles (a box truck housing the gutter fabrication machine and two equipped work vans), a combination seamless gutter machine with an estimated 30+ year remaining useful life, a full complement of ladders and hand tools, aluminum inventory, office equipment, an established Google Business profile with reviews, exclusive four-county dealer territory rights, and all customer records.
Support & Training
The seller provides a structured post-close transition and has offered to stay on as a part-time, commission-based sales rep to support proposal continuity.
Market & Competition
Western NC's mature tree canopy, four distinct seasons, and strong in-migration drive above-average, recurring gutter service demand. The national market generates ~$5B annually from non-discretionary maintenance needs. Primary competitors are national brands that price 50–100% higher and use aggressive sales tactics — a dynamic that actively generates referrals for this business. Exclusive four-county dealer territory rights and decades of community trust form a competitive moat that capital investment alone cannot replicate.
Growth Opportunities
The business produces $574K in revenue with zero paid digital advertising — a clear, immediate growth lever. An adjacent growing metro market has no active competing dealers and is accessible at minimal cost. Cover pricing remains below market rate; a modest increase adds $15K–$30K in incremental SDE. Thousands of existing customers represent an untapped recurring service base. Adding complementary services such as window cleaning or drain clearing leverages existing crews and equipment with minimal incremental investment.
