About this business
Re-roofing, tiling, slating and leadwork for homeowners and housing landlords around Cambridge make up most of this contractor's work. It was set up in 2013 and keeps its vans and materials at a freehold yard in a suburb, which is part of the sale. Seven people work in the business. Turnover has fallen from £758k to £690k, yet adjusted EBITDA has gone up annually and is now £111k, so the work it keeps is more profitable. The work goes to customers, so the base could move.
Key investment highlights
- Freehold yard included
- Adjusted EBITDA up each year to £111k
- Team of seven
- Trading since 2013
Reason for sale
The owner wants to step back from site work and is selling to a buyer who can lead the team.
