Established Commercial Glazing & Architectural Glass Contractor
Business Description
This Company is a 41-year-old architectural glass, glazing, and metal works prime contractor operating throughout Upstate and Central New York. With $3M single / $6M aggregate bonding capacity, IUPAT union signatory status, and a 200-mile service radius, the Company serves architects, engineers, general contractors, and building owners on commercial, institutional, educational, healthcare, and governmental projects across the region.
The Company operates as both a prime contractor — working directly with building owners under architect’s specifications — and as a specialty subcontractor to general contractors. Its bonding capacity, four-decade performance record, and union workforce access position it in a segment of the market where competition is limited to a small number of qualified regional contractors. Specialty capabilities include fire-rated assemblies, ballistic glass, security glass, custom glass railings, and operable glass partitions — premium-margin categories where the Company faces minimal direct competition.
FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE
Full P&L statements, tax returns (2023–2025), SDE worksheet, and supporting documentation will be provided to qualified buyers upon execution of a Non-Disclosure Agreement.
The Company has demonstrated 56% revenue growth from $2.4M (2023) to $3.7M (2025). SDE peaked at $398K in 2024 (15.6% margin) and was $382K in 2025 on higher revenue, reflecting project mix and cost dynamics common in the construction contracting industry. The 2026 projection of $3.5M revenue reflects management’s project pipeline assessment. Note: SDE figures include a $57K/year normalized fair market rent deduction; the real property is separately owned by the owner and available for negotiation.
