Multiple equity events
Monetize now, and again as the business grows. You are not selling once and walking away from the upside you keep creating.
HVAC · Plumbing · Electrical · Roofing · Pest · Generators · Gas
Sell part of your business.
Keep running all of it.
We take a majority stake in $3M+ trades and home services businesses. You keep the brand, the team, and the corner office — and you keep a stake in something that gets sold again in five years, at a bigger multiple.

Trades we partner across
The status quo
Breaking away from traditional growth and exit strategies
-
Undervaluation
A single valuation framework, applied once, on the buyer's timeline — with no second bite at the growth you create afterward.
-
Loss of culture
The operating manual gets replaced with someone else's. The things that made the business work stop being yours to decide.
-
Team fallout
The people who built the company with you are re-org'd into a structure they never signed up for.
Introducing American Service Partners
How we build success together
Built by operators
Led by people who have run trades and home services businesses — not by a fund that learned the trade from a deck.
Stay in control
Growth tools and shared infrastructure without the 'Big Brother' approach. You keep your voice and your equity.
The operating record
What the first year after joining actually looks like
Measured across partner companies: the twelve months after joining against the twelve months before. Figures are rounded, and no single company's numbers are broken out.
-
+34 points
Service calls that turn into real opportunities
under 5% nearly 40%
The same trucks, the same neighborhoods — and a technician who now knows what else the house needs.
-
+10 points
Revenue that isn't a box swap
about 19% about 29%
Service, repair and project work carrying more of the year, so a slow equipment season stops setting the ceiling.
-
+16%
Average revenue per job
baseline about 16% higher
Better diagnosis and honest options at the kitchen table, not a price rise.
-
+9 points
Operating margin
about 2% about 11%
The difference between a business that survives a bad quarter and one that funds its own growth.
Your exit, your terms
Four ways out. They are not the same deal.
Owners collapse four different decisions into one word — “selling” — and then negotiate the wrong thing. Put them on the same timeline and the differences are hard to miss. Pick the sentence that sounds like you.
- Year 1Majority sale — cash at close
- Year 5Platform event — second bite
- Year 9Final exit
- Who runs it
- You. Same seat, same team, same name over the door.
- What we carry
- Capital, purchasing, insurance, recruiting, marketing, back office and the reporting stack.
- The trade-off
- You answer to a board and a budget you did not previously have, and you now share the equity you used to hold alone — the seat, the team and the name over the door stay yours.
Three paydays instead of one: cash at close, a second bite at the platform event, and a final exit at year nine — with you in the seat the whole way on the recap path. Recap and step-back produce the same equity line; they differ only in what your Tuesday looks like. Put your numbers to it →
Illustrative structures, not an offer or a term sheet. Rollover percentage, event timing and role are negotiated deal by deal and differ with size, trade and market.
Run the numbers
Go alone, or stronger together.
Traditional private equity converts your life's work to cash once, at close. The platform monetizes a slice now and keeps you holding the rest while it compounds. Move the sliders to your business.
Go alone
$16.4M
One sale in year 10 at 5.5×. Nothing before it.
Stronger together
$19.8M
$2.1M at close, 3 equity events, plus the stake you still hold.
Difference
+$3.4M
1.21× the go-alone outcome.
Illustrative only — not a projection, offer, or guarantee of return. The uplift is your assumption: set it to zero and both paths grow at exactly the rate you entered, so the difference shown comes from deal structure alone — a standalone business modeled at 5.5× versus expansion toward 9× inside the platform, with recapitalizations every 3 years. Real terms depend on diligence, and multiples move with the market.
How we partner
Three steps, run by operators
-
01
Meet with experienced operators
A working conversation about the business you actually run — not a diligence interrogation.
-
02
Review best practices against your org chart
We go seat by seat through the questions in your organization and show you what the platform has already solved.
-
03
Grow and achieve record-setting profits
Shared systems, benchmarking, and buying power — applied to your business, on your terms.
Case studies
Two owners. Two opposite decisions.
The platform does not run the same move on every company it partners with. One of these owners was replaced. The other was promoted into the role an outside operator would have taken. What decided it was the business, not the policy.

Multi-trade · Northeast
When the business needed new hands
From losing money on every quarter to funding its own growth
Volume and profitability moved together, which is the part that matters — plenty of turnarounds buy one by sacrificing the other. Two years on, the company books roughly a quarter more single jobs a year and, more to the point, keeps money from them.

When the business needed a bigger stage
The owner kept running it — and it grew faster than ever
Scorecard metrics moved inside six months: more service calls converting to opportunities, more revenue per hour on the same crews. Growth followed within the first year, and it came from the same leadership that had been running the business all along.
