For a mechanical contractor sale to be successful, finding the right cultural match matters as much as price. This rapidly growing company experienced double-digit annual growth for five consecutive years, but the husband-and-wife owners wanted to reduce operational stress and responsibilities they no longer enjoyed. They specifically wanted to avoid the exhausting process of meeting with multiple buyers.
TREP leveraged market expertise to pre-screen candidates and present one ideal partner with strong cultural alignment. During the eight-month process, the company’s continued growth substantially increased its value. TREP navigated complex accounts receivable and work-in-progress issues, ultimately securing a higher offer in the final two weeks. Additionally, TREP managed sensitive state licensing requirements at the governmental level to ensure successful closing.
