About this business
This Preston joinery workshop makes staircases, sash windows, doors and fitted furniture to order for homeowners and builders. Since 2016 it has rented an industrial-estate workshop, where six people work across the bench, machining and fitting. Sales have crept up each year to £470k, but adjusted EBITDA has fallen from £86k to £67k as timber and labour costs outpaced prices. A buyer gets a skilled team and steady demand, and the clearest gain would come from repricing work to restore margin.
Key investment highlights
- Turnover up each year to £470k
- Six staff, bench joiners and fitters
- Leased industrial unit with machinery
- Trading since 2016
Reason for sale
The owner wants to return to hands-on making and step away from running the business.
