Construction Excavating Equipment Renting
A Southern California-based excavation contractor is available for acquisition, generating approximately $2.7M+ in revenue and $821,851 in three-year weighted average SDE (~30% margins). The business delivers a full suite of site preparation services, including excavation, grading, demolition, concrete cutting, and haul-off, serving general contractors across residential and commercial projects.
Operations are supported by experienced crews, with the owner focused on oversight and relationships, enabling a transition without direct field involvement. The Company operates an equipment-backed model, driving margin expansion, scalability, and a meaningful barrier to entry. Replication would require significant capital, time, and contractor relationships, positioning acquisition as a more efficient path.
The business benefits from consistent demand within a large, fragmented Southern California construction market. Excavation is a foundational service across all project types, supporting recurring work and revenue continuity through established contractor relationships.
At an asking price of $2,800,000 (~3.4x SDE), the opportunity offers an attractive return profile, including approximately 29% pre-debt returns and $400K–$500K+ in projected annual cash flow after debt service under typical SBA financing.
The Company is well-positioned for growth through expanded contractor relationships, increased fleet capacity, entry into public works, and additional service offerings. Ideal for owner-operators, strategic buyers, or financial investors seeking a high-margin, cash-flowing platform.
The sale is driven by a lifestyle transition, with the business remaining stable and profitable. Additional information will be provided upon execution of a Non-Disclosure Agreement.
