About the Business
- Years in Operation
- 27
- Currently Relocatable
- Yes
- Facilities & Assets
- The business operates out of a leased facility that has housed the company for over 12 years.
It includes:
3,000 sq. ft. of warehouse space: Used for storing equipment and materials.
Office space with 10 workstations: 5 currently in use.
Empty Space: Room for expansion without relocation.
The location has a stable landlord relationship and would be easy to retain under new ownership. - Market Outlook / Competition
- Market is semi-competitive because nearly all other firms are too small to qualify for Company's commercial contracts, or they are so large that they only work on extremely large, prevailing wage construction projects.
Company is ideally sized to take advantage of small to medium-sized commercial development AND residential projects. - Opportunities for Growth
- Growth Opportunities
There is vast room for strategic growth:
Existing leads and relationships are routinely turned down due to bandwidth.
Apartment and hotel developments continue to surge regionally.
Burned lots from the 2017 wildfires present custom build opportunities.
Planning departments in multiple cities show a robust pipeline of approved projects.
Second estimator recently hired, indicating readiness to scale.
The groundwork has been laid for new ownership to take the reigns for big growth with minimal ramp up.
