Expansion potential:

With top line growth from 2007 to the 12 months ending 3/31/12 of about 230% (a rough average annual growth rate of 54% through the recession), this business has continued to grow at a strong rate simply by doing the things it has done in the past. Additional growth opportunities include forming a maintenance & inspection division, capture more commercial flat roof work, pursue government agency re-roofing work, create an energy audit division, or ramp up CertainTeed's Energen photovoltaic cell solar installations.

Competition / Market:

While roofing contracting is a business with low barriers to entry, most roofing businesses struggle to survive. Part of this is due to the fact that many people who start roofing businesses may have worked as a roof installer, superintendent, or foreman for another company before attempting to start their own company. Many such people may know how to install a roof, but they lack the systems, marketing, quality control, staff infrastructure, and branding necessary for success. This business is turn key.
