This is an outstanding opportunity to purchase a home improvement company that specializes in stucco installation, remediation and repair for residents in Delaware, Pennsylvania and Maryland.
The owner has decades of experience in the construction trade and prior experience in selling a company. The business is managed with the help of one additional family member. Together they oversee new estimates and general office work. There are 6 long-term 1099 employees that handle the on-site project work.
Most initial estimates can be done in the office using just inspection reports. Meaning, no travel and turn-around time can be minutes, not hours. This also streamlines the pipeline of new projects, allowing them to make informed decisions on which projects to pursue based on inspection findings. Currently, the business operates with an active pipeline of unserviced projects and a growing surplus of incoming inspection reports.

- There is significant regional demand for stucco installation, remediation and repair. Around 2009, Delaware and the broader Mid-Atlantic region experienced a major turning point in how stucco homes were built, inspected, and sold. The way many builders treated stucco had led to invisible and devastating consequences for homeowners finding mold and wood rot that they never even knew was present. The regional weather patterns of humid summers and freeze-thaw winter cycles only exacerbated the problem.
Today, with updated residential building codes, stucco moisture inspections are standard practice in the region during home sales. Additional revenue stability comes from the high proportion of non-discretionary repair when it comes to finding mold and wood rot in a home. - Opportunities for Growth
- Expansion opportunities:
* Demand currently exceeds operational capacity. By adding additional employees, the next owner could immediately capture this demand, increase project volume, and drive revenue growth.
* Expanding referrals through additional advertising, marketing and lead generation campaigns
* Focusing on different areas of home improvement to develop more lead generation
