Business description
OVERVIEW Operating across the Midwest, the business delivers turnkey outdoor living structures, custom architectural extensions, and luxury residential hardscapes. The mix comprises 99% high-end residential custom builds, supplemented by select commercial work. Growth across the Midwest is driven by suburban home equity reinvestment and an aging regional housing stock requiring low-maintenance architectural and outdoor upgrades. The business controls the full project lifecycle, executing structural inspections, custom engineering, permitting, and warranty service. Competitive Edge Execution centers on a workforce of 200+ team members and an established executive departmental management team. A proprietary workforce training program drives high installation standards, predictable project timelines, and long-term margin stability. Based out of an over 50,000 sq ft logistics hub with multiple regional branches, operations maintain scalable operating capacity and inventory control. Holding active builder licenses across multiple states standardized installation processes reduce site prep time and protect historical EBITDA margins. The current owners are willing to retain some equity. Growth & Future For fiscal year 2025, the business generated $35.4M in revenue and $3.8M (10.7%) in Adjusted EBITDA, reflecting strong cash generation post-expansion. Growth plans focus on expanding coverage into adjacent Midwest territories and scaling commercial bidding. Maturing branch operations in multiple states provides immediate volume upside, while formalizing general contractor relationships secures repeat commercial contract revenue in commercial outdoor living.
