With nearly six decades of continuous operation, the business represents a rare opportunity to acquire a legacy brand with incredible untapped growth potential.

Growth Opportunities:
While the business has thrived on word-of-mouth referrals for decades, recent expansion into digital marketing has demonstrated tremendous potential. The last 18 months have shown significant growth through online lead generation and brand management. The aging St. Louis housing stock and increasing storm activity create consistent demand, while an aging population drives need for exterior maintenance services.

Expansion opportunities include:
- Enhanced online marketing and lead generation
- Partnerships with multi-family property owners
- Collaboration with roofers and homebuilders
- Government and non-profit institutional contracts

Market Position:
The business operates in a collaborative competitive environment where contractors often refer overflow work to trusted partners. The St. Louis market continues to grow as housing ages and weather patterns intensify demand for exterior home services.

Training and Support:
The current owner, with 50+ years of industry experience, will provide comprehensive training covering all business aspects including lead generation, marketing tools, website management, and operational procedures. This invaluable mentorship ensures smooth transition and continued success.

Financing:
Seller financing available with 12-month terms running concurrent with training period, making this opportunity accessible to qualified buyers.

Reason for Sale:
The primary owner has reached 80 years old and is planning retirement after building this remarkable business over six decades.

This represents an exceptional opportunity to acquire a trusted, profitable business with significant growth potential in the essential home services sector.

Facilities & Assets
Business has two work trucks, a 5" / 6" gutter machine (2025) and trailer it's installed in, tools, storage facility.
Market Outlook / Competition
This industry grows constantly as housing ages in the St. Louis region and storm damage intensifies. The population age average is also skewing older, with increased demand for any exterior work on a ladder, including regular gutter cleanouts. Competitors are partners and there's enough work to make referrals for jobs outside target geography or during times of unavailability.
Opportunities for Growth
Although the business is 50-years old, it's only been in the last 18-months that it expanded from a word-of-mouth and referral of loyal customers. With online brand management and new lead-generation tools, the narrative of a legacy family-owned business that's been trusted for decades in St. Louis beats out the competition and becomes the first choice of consumers. Growth via online lead generation, and in contracting with large multi-family owners, roofers, homebuilders and government/non-profit institutions is incredible.
