Summary
Welcome back to Beyond the Claim with host Vince Perri, your business broker and exit strategist. Today’s guest is Claudio Vilas, a roofing business broker and owner of The Roofing Biz Broker. We break down exactly how to sell a roofing company for maximum value, what really drives roofing valuation and EBITDA multiples, why private equity loves fragmented blue-collar industries, and how rollups, ESOPs, and the “second bite of the apple” can change your life at exit. Inside, Claudio shares the biggest deal killers he sees in due diligence, how to prepare your books the right way three years before a sale, owner-dependency traps, what to disclose and when, and why telling your management team early can actually de-risk the deal. We also cover customer concentration, the problem with insurance-heavy revenue, and how predictable marketing and sales engines earn better multiples. If you’re in roofing or insurance claims, this is a masterclass on exit planning and M&A strategy.
