Selling a Roofing Company: How Brody Allen Exteriors Achieved a High-Value Exit
When it comes to selling a roofing company, timing and preparation are everything. Brody Allen Exteriors, a well-established roofing and exterior services company, recently completed a successful sale to Ridgeline Roofing, a move backed by private equity firm Bertram Capital. This strategic roofing company acquisition sets the stage for accelerated growth – and stands as a blueprint for contractors planning their own exits.
Unlike many roofing business owners who wait too long to plan their exit, Stephen Maassen, founder of Brody Allen Exteriors, took a proactive approach. In his 30s, he made it a goal to maximize the value of his company. To help him do so, he partnered with Meritage Partners, an investment banking firm specializing in home services M&A.
Over a three-year period, Meritage helped Stephen prepare his business for market – cleaning up financials, strengthening operations, and identifying key value drivers to appeal to buyers in the roofing and construction space. Just one month after going to market, multiple competitive offers were already on the table.
Stephen secured his family’s financial future and remains onboard as CEO, now with the backing of a strong financial sponsor and a long runway for continued growth.
