For Home-Service Business Owners

You built the business. Does it stop the second you do?

Does every quote still route through you? Are margins tighter than the growth promised? Has anyone ever given you a straight answer on what the business is worth, or whether it could sell at all? However well your shop runs, those three answers decide the multiple a buyer will pay.

Answer 19 questions, take about 3 minutes, and find out what your business is actually worth today, plus the specific levers that move the number.

This free assessment shows you three things in under 3 minutes:

1

What your business is really worth

A credible range, not the lowball a consolidator quoted you.

2

What's lifting your value and what's dragging it down

Scored across the factors buyers price on.

3

The ranked moves that raise your multiple

And which one to start first.

Private equity is buying this industry in the open. Roofing platforms went from 17 in 2023 to 56 by the end of 2024, across 134 reported roofing acquisitions in that year alone. There are 27 or more active HVAC platforms shopping right now. Somebody is going to make you an offer.

Owner-dependent contractors trade at the bottom of their earnings multiple. The systematized version of the same business, with a trained management layer and contract revenue, trades near the top. Same trucks, same crew, a very different number.

Your Advisy Valuation

Here's where your business stands today.

A credible read on your current value, what's moving it, and the ranked moves that raise your multiple.

Buyers price your business on a multiple of its real earnings, its SDE, meaning your take-home plus owner add-backs. Owner-dependent contractors sit at the low end of that multiple; the systematized version of the same business, with contract revenue and a crew that runs without you, sits at the high end. The gap below is what closing that distance is worth.
