Description
This is the top-selling location in a national, veteran-founded concrete coatings franchise, and it’s available at a first-time-buyer price. The franchise recently opened ownership to civilian buyers, so this is one of the first chances for a non-veteran to step into an established, brand-leading location. In its first full year the business was named the network’s Franchise Partner of the Year. It holds a 5.0 rating across 80-plus reviews.
Financials. 2025 revenue was $665,129, with $189,569 in Seller’s Discretionary Earnings, a 28.5% margin, on an asset-light model with almost no fixed overhead. Through August 2026 the business has collected $521,272, about 78% of 2025 revenue, even though its largest commercial account was paused for most of the year on the customer’s side. That account is expected to resume in 2027. The asking price of $570,000 is about 3.0x 2025 SDE, and the business is SBA 7(a) eligible.
Semi-absentee structure. The owner works roughly 20 hours a week, almost entirely remote. A cross-trained install crew runs jobs independently and documents every step with photos for remote quality control. An experienced crew lead is moving to full time to run the field, and a team member with a sales background is moving into a dedicated sales and estimating role. A new owner can run it with light oversight, or add a general manager and step back fully.
What the business does. It installs epoxy and polyaspartic floor systems, split roughly evenly between residential and light-commercial work. Residential covers garages, patios, and workshops, much of it new-construction homes in one of the fastest-growing housing markets in the country. Commercial covers quick-lube and automotive sites, commercial kitchens, and facility floors. This location is one of a handful of network crews qualified for the franchise’s national quick-lube accounts, and it travels to complete stores in batches. Additional large commercial and multi-location opportunities are in discussion.
Growth levers. Pricing has been raised twice in 2026 with no loss in close rate. A second crew can use equipment the business already owns. The franchisor has offered a discounted adjacent territory. The marketing budget has room to scale.
Included. Two trucks, a wrapped trailer, grinders, a shot blaster, vacuums, generators, tools, and materials inventory (about $155,500 estimated), plus the CRM, phone number, reviews, and territory rights. Assets transfer free and clear. No real estate is included; the equipment is kept in a storage unit. The owner will provide three months of hands-on transition support. Franchisor transfer approval is required.

Facilities & Assets
The business owns no real estate, keeping overhead low. All equipment is owned and stored in a leased facility, with existing equipment financing paid off at closing so assets transfer free and clear. A buyer needs only modest storage and admin space. The included asset base is valued at roughly $155,500 with materials inventory and features two trucks, a wrapped enclosed trailer, two planetary grinders, a shot blaster, multiple industrial vacuums and dust extractors, two generators, and a full tool set. Redundancy across grinders, vacuums, and generators materially lowers the cost of standing up a second crew.
Support & Training
The seller, a former training program manager, has written detailed SOPs and will provide three months of hands-on transition support to train new ownership. The franchisor supplies admin procedures, technical guides, and platform training. An experienced crew lead runs installs, a team member with a sales background is moving into a dedicated sales and estimating role, and the cross-trained crew executes jobs independently, which keeps the handoff light. No special license is required to own or operate.
Market & Competition
The company operates in one of the largest, fastest-growing metros in the United States, with sustained population growth, among the nation's highest levels of new-home construction, and a deep base of commercial and automotive-service facilities. It holds a protected territory and is the only location of its brand in the market. Its moat is a strong quality reputation and review volume, a moisture-tolerant technical edge suited to the humid climate, franchisor marketing support, and a national commercial-contract channel most independent competitors cannot access.
Growth Opportunities
The business has a short, concrete list of growth levers, several already in motion. A dedicated salesperson is moving into the role now, freeing ownership from the one remaining owner-run function. A second install crew can launch on equipment already owned. The franchisor has offered a discounted adjacent territory that roughly doubles the residential funnel. The national commercial channel spans hundreds of corporate locations rolling out over several years, and the largest program is expected to resume in 2027. Residential pricing has been raised twice in 2026 with no loss in close rate, and marketing spend has room to scale ahead of the slower first quarter.
