$141K+ Revenue Home-Based Painting Company

This painting company serves homeowners and some commercial clients in Douglas County, CO. It sells interior and exterior repaints as one package of labor and materials. Subcontracted crews do the painting and specialty equipment is rented job by job, so the owner runs the business instead of painting. Most revenue comes from homeowners, along with repeat and commercial customers. Exterior jobs were roughly three-quarters of 2026 sales to date.

The owner puts in 25-40 hours a week depending on the season, and subcontracted painters do the work in the field. Current leads come mostly through a major online home-services marketplace. The business runs from a home office, so there is no shop, storefront, or lease to carry.

No employees, equipment, or inventory are included. A buyer takes over the management role without inheriting payroll or fixed overhead, and painting skill is not required. The job is mostly sales, customer service, and coordinating projects in a county the seller describes as growing quickly. It suits an owner-operator with sales or project-management experience who wants a low-overhead way into home services.

Retirement planning - first step in a phased exit

The company runs from the owner's home office and carries no commercial lease, rent, or utilities. Painting labor is subcontracted and specialty equipment is rented as jobs require, so no furniture, fixtures, equipment, or inventory is included in the sale. For a buyer, that means no equipment to buy or maintain, low fixed overhead, and the option to run the business from a home office. (Home Based)

Seller will provide appropriate training and support as mutually agreed upon by both parties to ensure a successful transition.

Demand comes from homeowners repainting interiors and exteriors, plus some commercial property work, in a county the seller describes as growing and expanding quickly. Most revenue is residential, with a base of repeat customers. The company has worked this market since 2015 and sells on quality, pricing labor and materials together. Residential painting is easy to enter, so it is competitive. This company's advantages are more than a decade of local presence, lead channels that are already running, and a subcontracted model that lets crew capacity rise and fall with the season.

Lead generation is the most direct lever. Ad spending is now well below earlier years, and the seller sees print and radio campaigns as the main upside in a county growing fast. Past customers are a low-cost source of repeat repaint work. Interior jobs, now a smaller share of sales than exterior, can be marketed for the cooler months, and commercial repaints can grow alongside the residential base. Hiring an estimator or project manager would let volume grow beyond the owner's current 25-40 hours a week.
