Opportunity to acquire an established and profitable Yorkshire-based business operating across construction, civil engineering and groundworks.
The company has built a strong regional reputation for dependable delivery, practical expertise and quality execution across a broad range of project types, with core activities including site preparation, excavation, foundations, underground utilities, drainage, road construction, land profiling and site levelling.
The business benefits from an integrated service offering, which supports a wide variety of schemes while reducing reliance on any single workstream. Its operating platform is supported by an experienced management team, long-serving staff across operations, commercial support, buying, administration, plant and health and safety, together with a flexible subcontractor base that allows the business to scale efficiently in line with project demand.
The company operates from a freehold Yorkshire site comprising offices, parking and yard space for machinery and material storage, providing both operational continuity and tangible asset backing. This adds resilience to the platform and enhances its attractiveness to both strategic acquirers and investors.
In FY2025, the business generated turnover of £17.81m, adjusted EBITDA of £2.57m, gross margin of 21.7% and net assets of £6.49m. Gross margin has improved from 18.3% in FY2022 to 21.7% in FY2025, reflecting stronger operational efficiency, pricing discipline and improving earnings quality. Forecasts indicate turnover increasing to £20.54m by FY2029, with EBITDA rising to £3.06m.
The shareholders are seeking a sale of 100% of the equity on a cash-free, debt-free basis. The opportunity is likely to appeal to trade buyers, larger contractors, infrastructure groups, private investors and acquisitive businesses seeking a profitable regional platform with experienced leadership, freehold property backing and clear scope for further expansion. The existing shareholders are prepared to support an orderly transition, and further information is available to qualified parties under NDA.
