$728K SDE | Seller Financing | Stone & Quartz Fab. + Install
Business Description
This premier stone and quartz slab fabrication and installation business has served Southern California for nearly 20 years, earning an HGTV feature and a run as the go-to fabricator for a major national home retailer, completing 350+ kitchens and every regional remodel for that account. Revenue has grown from $1.08M in 2023 to $1.67M in 2025, with SDE margins running 45-60%. Two moats set this apart: entity-tied material pricing beating industry-standard discounts by 25 to 35 points, and a fully built-out, California-compliant wet shop at a time when regulators are shutting down non-compliant dry shops.
Top Reasons to Acquire
— Seller-Financed Structure: ~$495K down against a $1.5M price, seller carries the balance at 6.5%. No SBA financing required.
— Growing Revenue and Margins: sales grew from $1.08M to $1.67M over three years, SDE from $529K to a 2025 run rate near $1M.
— Locked-In Pipeline: ~$2.5M signed/awarded, plus a forward pipeline toward $7M over 3 to 5 years.
— Self-Funding Earnout: a 10% earnout on collected pipeline revenue only, never straining buyer cash flow.
— Material Discount Moat: supplier pricing up to 50% off list with major quartz and stone brands, versus 15-20% for typical fabricators.
— Regulatory Moat: a dust-free wet shop already in place for years, while the state closes non-compliant dry shops.
— Deep Bench: a shop supervisor with 16+ years of tenure runs production, backed by a tenured team and a dedicated multifamily estimator.
— Owner Role: the owner works roughly 40+ hours a week on sales, estimating, bidding, material ordering, invoicing, and collections.
— Growth Runway: adding sales capacity, expanding geographically, launching a materials distribution line, and re-engaging high-volume program accounts.
Financial Performance (P&L basis; further detail available on request)
2023: Revenue $1,083,544 — SDE $529,360
2024: Revenue $1,469,304 — SDE $656,690
2025: Revenue $1,670,607 — SDE $998,705 (includes a one-time addback)
3-Year Average SDE: $728,251
Valuation is based on the company's P&Ls rather than tax returns, a deliberate choice reflecting how the business is run, and a point we're glad to walk serious buyers through in more detail.
Owner's Role and Transition
The owner runs the front office, estimating, bidding, material ordering, invoicing, and collections, at roughly 40-50 hours per week. A dedicated multifamily estimator independently manages the developer pipeline, and a tenured shop supervisor runs day-to-day production, so the owner's footprint is lighter than the revenue size suggests.
A buyer steps into a fully staffed shop, a tenured production team, an established estimator, and a locked-in backlog on day one. This turnkey operation has structural moats that took nearly two decades to build and cannot be replicated quickly in California's current regulatory environment.
Key Highlights
— Systematized Operations: job costing is fixed per diem, so margins are known before work begins. A proven estimating template covers single-family and multifamily bids alike.
— Management Team: the shop supervisor has run daily operations for over 16 years, supported by fabricators and a machine operator each with over a decade of tenure.
— Bankability: structured as seller-financed rather than SBA, removing bank underwriting timelines and opening the deal to more buyers.
— Sales & Marketing Upside: growth to date has come almost entirely through referral and developer relationships, with no dedicated sales function.
— Untapped Revenue Stream: the supplier pricing arbitrage is deep enough to support a standalone materials distribution line.
— Geographic Expansion: operations are concentrated in one region of Southern California, with room to expand using the same developer relationships and supplier terms.
