Selling a roofing company is a once-in-a-career decision
We represent roofing contractors across the country through confidential sales, with an honest valuation, a vetted buyer pool, and a process that protects your crews, your customers, and your name.
Fully confidential
Nothing reaches crews, customers, or competitors until you say so.
No upfront fees
Valuation and preparation come before any listing agreement.
Trade-specific
Roofing is underwritten differently. We prepare for those questions.

Why owners come to us
Four reasons roofing owners start the conversation
Private equity and regional platforms are acquiring roofing companies at a pace the industry has not seen before. That is real leverage for an owner, but only for one who walks in prepared.
THE WORK NEVER LETS UP
Storm season, crew turnover, insurance disputes, financing. After twenty years of climbing, most owners are not tired of roofing, they are tired of carrying all of it alone.
NO ONE IN THE FAMILY WANTS IT
The succession plan you assumed you had did not materialize. A buyer who keeps the crews, the name, and the service calls is a legacy plan too.
YOU GET A LOT OF "OFFERS"
A buyer you've never heard of called and named a number. One offer with no competing bid is not a market, it is a starting position. We build the market around you.
TIMING AHEAD OF THE CYCLE
Roofing is cyclical and buyers price on the trailing three years. Selling while the numbers are strong is worth more than any negotiating tactic.
The engagement
A defined process, reported weekly
You keep running the company. We run the sale and tell you exactly where it stands every week.
Step 01
Valuation & preparation
We normalize the P&L, separate owner add-backs from real overhead, and establish what a buyer will actually pay before anything goes to market.
Step 02
Confidential marketing
A blind profile reaches vetted roofing acquirers, regional platforms, and qualified individual buyers. Your name stays off it until an NDA is signed.
Step 03
Competing offers
Buyers run on the same clock, so you compare structure and not just price: earnouts, holdbacks, transition length, and what happens to your foremen.
Step 04
Diligence to close
Job costing, warranty exposure, licensing, and WIP. We manage the document requests and keep the deal moving so you can keep the trucks rolling.
Roofing expertise
Buyers underwrite roofing differently
Roofing companies do not value like restaurants or retail. Acquirers price recurring service revenue, storm exposure, crew retention, and insurance mix, and they discount anything they cannot verify. We prepare those answers before they are asked.
01
Residential, commercial, and service mix
Recurring maintenance contracts are the premium asset. We position them that way.
02
Storm-year normalization
One hail season should not distort your multiple in either direction. We show the baseline.
03
Crew continuity
Buyers pay for a team that stays. We structure transitions that keep foremen in place.
04
Sales and Job Systems
Cash is king, and buyers want to know there's a system for sales

Who you will work with
"Every business deserves an exit that reflects the years of effort behind it. For a roofing owner, that means a buyer who respects the crew — and a number that respects the climb."
