Longstanding Kauai Construction And Renovation Company For Sale

Lihue, Hawaii, US
Asking Price:
$450,000 Furniture / Fixtures included
Sales Revenue:
$1,397,986
Cash Flow:
$362,170

Established construction and renovation company serving Kauai, Hawaii, with more than five decades of local construction experience. Founded in 1983, the business generated $1,397,986 in gross revenue and Seller's Discretionary Earnings of $362,170 in 2023.

The company has completed residential, commercial, resort, hospitality, condominium, institutional and public-sector projects throughout Kauai. Current operations focus on renovations and remodeling, commercial tenant improvements, resort and property upgrades, and specialized concrete spall repair.

The business benefits from longstanding relationships with architects, property owners, commercial clients and referral partners. Work is generated primarily through repeat customers and word-of-mouth recommendations, with minimal active advertising.

The seller has deliberately reduced project volume ahead of retirement, reportedly declining approximately 50% of incoming opportunities. The company has an active project backlog and approximately $1.5 million in pending proposals, providing a foundation for renewed growth.

The sale includes construction equipment, tools, office assets and a 2021 Ford F-250, subject to the final asset schedule. Experienced office and field personnel are expected to remain following the sale, subject to mutually agreed employment terms.

Property Information

Real Estate:

Lease

Lease Terms:

The business operates from leased office premises in central Lihue under a month-to-month arrangement. The seller reports that the current rent is below market level.

Separate equipment and materials storage is occupied under an existing special arrangement. Continued occupancy, rental terms and transferability are subject to agreement with the respective landlords.

Location:

Based in central Lihue on Kauai, Hawaii, the company undertakes construction, renovation and specialty repair projects throughout the island.

Its longstanding local presence supports established relationships with architects, property owners, commercial clients, suppliers and subcontractors.

Premises Details:

The company operates from leased office premises in central Lihue, with separate storage facilities for construction equipment and materials.

The operational assets include construction tools and equipment, office furniture, computers, printers, stored operating materials and a 2021 Ford F-250, subject to the final asset schedule.

Business Operation

Expansion Potential:

Significant opportunities exist to increase project volume by returning the business to a more active operating model. The seller has reduced workloads ahead of retirement and reports declining approximately half of incoming opportunities.

An incoming owner could expand field capacity, accept more existing referrals, strengthen estimating and project management, and improve the company's digital presence.

Further opportunities include increasing commercial and hospitality projects, expanding tenant improvements and specialist repair services, selectively returning to public-sector work and exploring neighboring-island markets.

Competition / Market:

The company occupies a specialist position within Kauai's construction market, undertaking mid-sized and technically demanding projects that fall between smaller handyman operations and larger commercial contractors.

Its competitive strengths include extensive local project experience, established professional relationships, specialized concrete spall repair capabilities and a reputation that generates business with limited advertising.

Reasons for selling:

Retirement

The scope, duration and compensation for transition assistance will be negotiated with the buyer.
