Capstone Partners advised Champion Contractors and Services, LLC—a leading provider of commercial re-roofing and restoration services—on its acquisition by Platform Partners LLC, a Houston-based private investment company.
Founded in 2003 and headquartered in Round Rock, Texas, Champion has grown from a regional roofing contractor into a nationwide platform with operations across the U.S. The Company provides comprehensive commercial re-roofing and other exterior restoration solutions for both insurance and retail-driven projects. Over its more than 20-year history, Champion has successfully completed projects across a wide range of industries, including education, retail, hospitality, manufacturing, healthcare, industrial, and multi-family, while building long-term partnerships with property owners, insurers, and other large, multi-location customers.

We selected Capstone over other firms because their initial proposal was exceptionally well prepared, professional, and far exceeded the quality of presentation from others. Throughout the sell-side process, the team demonstrated outstanding preparedness, responsiveness, and depth of knowledge. They provided high-quality advice, navigated challenges with creativity and confidence, and positioned our company in a way that maximized value while maintaining deal certainty. Beyond their technical expertise, the personal connection we built with the team made the process seamless. Capstone proved to be an invaluable partner in executing a successful transaction, for which we are very grateful.
Sam Matlin, Managing Director at Capstone Partners, commented, “Champion has built a strong reputation as a trusted provider of both insurance-driven and retail commercial roof restoration and HVAC services for large, sophisticated, multi-location customers across the U.S. Champion’s unique, asset-light business model flexible cost structure contributes to an industry-leading profitability and growth profile. This transaction reflects the increasing investor interest in essential, non-discretionary facility restoration services, particularly in categories tied to recurring weather-related events. With a scalable model and deep industry relationships, Champion is well-positioned to capitalize on long-term demand drivers in a growing and highly fragmented market. We are proud to have advised such a great company through an exciting M&A process and look forward to following Champion’s continued success with its new partner.”
