Verticals / Surface Infrastructure
Surface Infrastructure
Turning one-time projects into contracted maintenance revenue.
Pavement preservation, sealcoating, striping, crack repair, and related surface maintenance for commercial and municipal property owners. The category is fragmented, cash-flow positive, and undermanaged.
Why the category is essential
- Deferred maintenance is measurable in dollars — property owners have a repeatable reason to buy.
- Regulatory and ADA requirements drive re-striping and repair on defined cycles.
- Multi-property portfolios (retail, industrial, multifamily) prefer a single vendor across sites.
- Weather and seasonality reward operators who install real scheduling discipline.
What we look for in an acquisition
- Repeatable base of commercial property, HOA, or municipal customers
- Fleet and crew that can be retained through change of ownership
- Clear separation between project revenue and contracted maintenance revenue
- Founder willing to convert relationships into a real customer file
How we operate it after close
- Push customers from project work onto multi-year maintenance contracts
- Install a job-costing discipline that tells the truth about crew productivity
- Consolidate sealcoat and material purchasing across acquired operators
- Roll up adjacent geographies where fleet and crew utilization improve
