Profitable Construction Contractor – $500K+ Cash Flow (Bay Area)
Business Description
Tile & Stone Installation Company
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a profitable, third-generation Bay Area construction contractor specializing in tile & stone installation. With over 35 years of reputation, the company has become a trusted name in luxury residential and commercial projects, known for exceptional craftsmanship, reliability, and trust.
The business generates an average of ~$509K in cash flow (~35% margins) on revenues ranging from $1.1M–$1.7M annually, supported by a low-overhead, relocatable model with assets valued at $80K–$100K, including multiple vans, a dump trailer, and full installation tools. It is fully booked for the current year with strong leads into the next, and stands out as one of the few contractors still skilled in traditional mortar/mud float methods while also mastering modern installation technology. At an asking price of $975,000 (just 1.9× earnings), buyers can realistically recoup their investment in under 2 years, making this a strategic, below-market opportunity well positioned to move quickly.
The business is highly scalable with multiple avenues for growth. Adding even a single crew would immediately increase capacity and revenue, as demand already exceeds current limits. Opening a small showroom or design center could capture higher-margin direct-to-consumer sales and elevate brand visibility. A motivated buyer could also expand geographically, replicating this proven model in nearby cities and markets. With the company’s strong reputation, systems, and relationships already established, the right operator can take this platform to the next level.
The owner is retiring after decades of successful operation. The business is profitable, stable, and ready for continued growth under new ownership. It is being offered at a strategic, below-market price to attract serious buyers and ensure a timely sale. To support a smooth handoff, the seller will provide training, operational guidance, and introductions to general contractors, designers, and vendors. A California C-54 (Tile Contractor) license or a B-1 (General Contractor) license is required to operate this business, ensuring the buyer can step in and continue operations seamlessly.
This is a rare chance to acquire a profitable, reputable, and highly scalable business at a below market price. Inquire today to receive additional details and financials under NDA.

About the Business
- Years in Operation
- 16
- Number of Employees
- 6
- Currently Home Based
- Yes
- Facilities & Assets
- Business is currently home-based and fully relocatable. Operations can continue from a residence or be easily shifted to a small storage unit or light industrial space if preferred. Assets include multiple work vans, a dump trailer, fabrication tools, and all necessary installation equipment valued between $80,000–$100,000. No significant inventory is carried, as materials are ordered job-specific.
- Market Outlook / Competition
- The Bay Area market remains strong, with demand for high-end residential and remodel projects continuing to grow. Few competitors offer the same combination of generational reputation, relationships with top GCs and designers, and broad technical expertise. The company is among the rare contractors that still master traditional mortar/mud float methods while also delivering modern technology-driven installation techniques. Margins consistently outperform industry averages.
- Opportunities for Growth
- This business is highly scalable with multiple clear avenues for growth. Adding one or two additional crews would quickly boost revenue, as demand from GCs and designers already exceeds current capacity. A small showroom could capture higher-margin, direct-to-consumer sales and elevate brand presence. With rare expertise in both mortar/mud float and modern installation methods, the company holds a unique advantage. A motivated buyer could also expand into neighboring markets and replicate this proven model in new locations.
