You have built a reputation, developed reliable crews, and earned the trust of customers. Selling your roofing company should recognize those strengths while giving you a clear path to retirement, a new venture, or a different role in the business.
Synergy Business Brokers is an award-winning firm with over 20 years of experience. We work with owners of profitable companies generating $700,000 to $250 million or more in annual revenue. We help evaluate your business, introduce qualified buyers, negotiate offers, and guide the sale through closing.
Our initial consultation is free and confidential. There are no upfront brokerage fees, and our commission is earned when your company sells.

A commercial roofing contractor with maintenance accounts presents a different opportunity from a residential roofer that relies on referrals or storm-related projects. We look at how your company wins work, delivers projects, and maintains profitability before deciding how to present it to buyers.
Your services may include commercial roofing, exterior construction, gutters, insulation, residential roofing, siding, or solar installation. Your crews may work with asphalt shingles, clay tile, concrete tile, metal, single-ply membranes, slate, or other systems. We help explain the capabilities that distinguish your business.
Our experience across the construction industry helps us consider both roofing specialists and buyers whose existing operations complement your services. If solar installation is a substantial part of your business, our guidance on selling a solar company may also be useful.
We will discuss your service area, residential and commercial mix, employee and subcontractor arrangements, management responsibilities, and the transition support you are willing to provide.
Your earnings are a starting point, but buyers also need to understand how dependable those earnings are. A strong year driven by unusual weather can look different from consistent results supported by repeat customers and ongoing maintenance work.
We review tax returns, financial statements, current results, and the expenses that may change under new ownership. Important areas include:
We use these details and relevant transaction comparisons to recommend an asking price and explain the value of your company to prospective buyers.
We market the opportunity without publicly identifying your company or its exact location. Before receiving identifying details, prospective buyers are screened and asked to sign a nondisclosure agreement. We discuss their experience, available funds, acquisition interests, and ability to complete the purchase.
Through our 15-step sales process, we typically reach step 9, introducing qualified buyers, within 1 to 8 weeks and can often introduce multiple buyers during that time. The timing varies with the business and the information available.
Offers can differ in more than price. We help compare cash at closing, financing requirements, seller financing, and your responsibilities during the transition. When financing is needed, we can introduce the buyer to lending contacts and help coordinate the information required to keep the transaction moving.
A roofing sale also calls for attention to open jobs, customer deposits, warranty responsibilities, key employees, and any licensing or contract requirements that affect the handover. Addressing these matters early helps the parties prepare for closing.
The right buyer can make a significant difference when a sale loses momentum. Marcellino Roofing, which provided roofing, siding, and other exterior construction services, illustrates this.
The seller had been speaking with a buyer who was taking a long time to complete a deal. Synergy arranged a meeting with a different buyer, and the transaction closed just one week after that introduction. This was an unusually fast closing, but it shows the value of having another qualified option when an existing discussion stalls.
Our completed sales also include a commercial roofing company in the Chicago area of Illinois that generated over $44 million in annual revenue. The company had longstanding customers and low employee turnover, demonstrating our experience with larger roofing contractors as well.
