We acquire and grow skilled trades businesses — partnering with owners who've built something worth keeping.
Journeyman is a portfolio company focused exclusively on skilled trades businesses. We invest in plumbing, electrical, HVAC, roofing, and related services — industries that form the backbone of every community.
We work with owners who are ready for their next chapter but want their business and their people to be in good hands. That matters to us.
We structure deals that respect what you've built and protect the people who helped you build it.
We're not a flip. We buy businesses to build them — investing in operations, people, and growth over years, not quarters.
We understand your industry, your margins, and the rhythms of seasonal work. No learning curve on our end.
We start with a phone call — no NDAs, no decks, no pressure. We want to understand your business and what you're looking for before anything else.
We pay full value for good businesses. We don't lowball, we don't retrade, and we don't waste your time with offers that don't reflect what you've built.
We keep what works. Your team, your name, your reputation — we protect those. Our job is to add capacity, not disrupt what already runs well.
Thinking about selling? Curious what your business is worth?
We'll keep it simple and confidential.
