Homewood Holdings Acquires Total Trim Construction, Inc.

Homewood Holdings LLC (“Homewood”), a portfolio company of the investment firm Building Industry Partners LLC (“BIP”), has acquired the assets of Total Trim Construction, Inc. (“Total Trim” or “the Company”) from its owners, Jason and Patti Flashman. Total Trim provides quality interior trim, moulding, and door installation services to multi-family builders and commercial and hospitality developers and contractors.

Jason and Patti founded Total Trim in 2004, and have grown it into the leading independent full-service door and millwork installer in the greater Sacramento market. Total Trim joins the Homewood Holdings family of companies as its seventh overall investment and its second business in Northern California. Homewood Holdings’ other investment in the greater Sacramento market is Homewood Building Supply, a lumber & building materials “pro dealer” in Loomis and Yuba. The addition of Total Trim improves the ability of both businesses to collectively serve the turnkey millwork needs of greater Sacramento single-family, multi-family, and commercial builders.

Erich Kepner, CFO of Homewood Holdings commented, “Homewood Building Supply has worked closely with Total Trim for over a decade, serving many of the same residential and commercial builder customers as a complementary service partner. Total Trim has a very strong reputation in the Sacramento market, and we think Homewood’s support, combined with Jason and Patti’s expertise, will allow us to better serve our customers.”

Ron Horton, Door Division Manager of Homewood Building Supply added, “We’re very excited to welcome Jason and the Total Trim team to the Homewood family, and we look forward to providing an even greater breadth of turnkey services to our door and millwork customers throughout northern California.”

Jason Flashman of Total Trim said, “Patti and I have known and admired the Homewood team for a long time, and we believe the Homewood Holdings platform will provide even greater opportunities for our employees and allow Total Trim to accelerate its growth in the Sacramento market and beyond.”

Homewood Holdings was formed in April 2016 by BIP and building industry veteran, Jim Stockman, to build a best-in-class, regional pro dealer organization in the Western U.S. Today, Homewood Holdings is a pro dealer-focused distribution and installation platform with eight total locations in California, Washington, and Arizona, more than 300 total employees, and over $125 million in combined sales.

Homewood Holdings is actively seeking to partner with, and/or acquire, independent pro dealer, component manufacturer, and service provider organizations throughout the Western portion of the United States.
