About
About Build Broker
Build Broker manages off-market sales of construction and trades businesses across the UK. We work directly with owners and buyers to move the right opportunities forward - with discretion, control, and a focus on getting the deal done properly.
How we work
Approach
We are not a listings platform and we do not rely on broad marketing to create activity. Each situation we take on is managed individually, with direct involvement from start to finish.
We work with a deliberately small number of sellers at any one time. This means each process gets the attention, preparation, and buyer engagement it needs - rather than being one of dozens competing for the same resource.
For buyers, we maintain a private register of qualified acquirers across the construction and trades sector. When we have a relevant opportunity, we make direct introductions - no blind marketing, no speculative emails.
What we focus on
Sector
We work exclusively in construction and trades - scaffolding, fire safety, electrical, HVAC, roofing, builders merchants, property maintenance, lift maintenance, specialist suppliers, and related services.
This focus means we understand the operational realities that affect value: contract structures, labour models, project pipelines, supplier relationships, and the seasonal patterns that shape cash flow in the sector.
It also means we know who the active buyers are, what they are looking for, and how to position a business effectively for the right audience.
Who is behind it
Direct
Build Broker is part of GIE Capital Ltd, a company registered in England and Wales. Every transaction is handled directly - not delegated to a network or subcontracted to third parties.
When you work with Build Broker, you deal with the same person from the first conversation through to completion. That continuity matters when the process involves confidential information, sensitive timing, and the trust of both parties.
