Countertops + Cabinet Refinishing, Showroom
Most homeowners who want a new kitchen believe the only choices are living with what they have or paying for a full remodel. This business has spent 14 years selling the third option, and it now runs 2 divisions that feed each other: cabinet and wood refinishing performed by an in-house crew, and countertops sold through a retail showroom.
Countertops carry the larger share of revenue and bring customers through the showroom door, where 700 to 1,000 stone and quartz samples are on display across 6 of the most popular quartz brands plus granite, quartzite, marble, and butcher block. The countertop division sells a complete replacement rather than a piece of one: the old surface removed, cabinet issues corrected, the new top fabricated and installed, and the sink and faucet handled, so the customer is never left coordinating 2 to 4 separate contractors. The refinishing division restores and recolors cabinets, replaces doors and drawers, and refinishes wood floors using proprietary systems that are sandless, virtually odorless, and complete most jobs in 1 to 2 days, including a curing technology that lets a refinished floor be walked on the same day instead of waiting days for a traditional finish to harden.
The 2 divisions were built to feed each other. The countertop line exists because refinishing customers kept asking for one company to handle the whole kitchen, and today a cabinet customer often buys a countertop and a countertop customer often refreshes the cabinets. Together they produce projects that range from a straightforward cabinet restoration with a new top up to $30K kitchen transformations with new doors and drawers, interior accessories, rebuilt islands, countertops, and backsplashes.
Day to day, 3 cross-trained technicians handle refinishing and countertop removals and 1 employee runs the showroom, while fabrication, installation, and plumbing are delivered by an established bench of trade partners. That structure keeps payroll light and lets capacity flex with demand instead of carrying idle crews. Ownership currently spans roughly 40 to 50 hours a week across sales, job oversight, and administration, a role one working owner can hold or split with a salesperson. The franchisor expects some owner involvement, so this is an owner-operated business rather than an absentee one. The sale is not performance driven: the owner is stepping back to focus on 2 other businesses and will support a full transition.
Highlights include:
This may be a strong fit for a remodeling or home-services operator adding a showroom and a second revenue line, a hands-on owner with construction or trades experience who wants an established customer base rather than a startup, or a buyer who would rather manage projects and trade partners than carry a large payroll.
Owner is stepping back to focus on two other businesses, with a full transition offered.
The business operates from 2 spaces a short walk apart. The workshop runs roughly 2,000 sq ft and is built around production, with a clean, dust-free spray room and spray booth, storage for floor finishing equipment and turbines, a small office, and room to run several cabinet projects at once. The showroom runs roughly 1,400 sq ft, with about 1,100 sq ft of active display carrying 700 to 1,000 countertop samples, 6 quartz brands, granite and other stone options, and a tile section supporting backsplash work. The balance of that space is a small office and conference room plus storage for additional samples and home show displays. Vehicles, refinishing and finishing equipment, showroom fixtures and displays, and sample inventory transfer with the sale. FF&E and inventory are included. A buyer should confirm lease terms and renewal status for both spaces with the seller prior to closing.
The refinishing division operates within an established franchise system, and a buyer is expected to receive franchisor onboarding and training in accordance with the standard transfer process. No prior refinishing or countertop experience is assumed. The franchisor allows owners considerable autonomy in daily operation while expecting some level of owner involvement, so this is not structured as an absentee opportunity. Owners also have access to an active peer network of fellow franchisees, which the current owner describes as the strongest source of practical operating knowledge in the system.
The seller intends to provide a full transition covering customer relationships, trade partner and vendor contacts, franchisor protocols, and daily operations across both divisions. Bookkeeping is maintained in-house and is organized for handover. The current team is expected to remain through and after the transition. A buyer should confirm the specific scope of seller transition support and franchisor transfer requirements directly with the seller and franchisor prior to closing.
Local painting & refinishing companies
The business already carries what a startup in this category spends years assembling: a retail showroom, a trained crew, a vetted bench of trade partners, and more than a decade of local brand recognition built through referrals, digital advertising, home shows, and county fairs.
Growth levers include adding cabinet refacing and full kitchen remodels to the refinishing division, which the business already approaches through the smaller remodels it performs today; opening additional countertop showrooms in nearby markets, where customers already travel an hour or more to reach the existing one; expanding into neighboring territories that remain unowned; and reconfiguring showroom space to display full kitchen remodel capability to walk-in customers. Continued investment in digital advertising and event marketing supports all of these.
