Valor Exterior Partners acquires Associate Roofing

Braintree, MA Valor Exterior Partners, a portfolio company of Osceola Capital, has acquired Associate Roofing, expanding Valor’s presence into southern Massachusetts and Martha’s Vineyard. Established in 1975 by Michael Lynch, a third-generation roofer with family roots in the industry dating to 1932, Associate provides roofing, siding, and other exterior home services to homeowners across southern Mass., R.I., and the surrounding coastal islands. This partnership marks Valor’s ninth acquisition since the platform’s launch in September 2024.

“We are excited to welcome the Associate Roofing team to the Valor family. Over the past several decades, Associate has earned a strong reputation in the region as a trusted provider of exterior services to high-end homeowners, making it a natural fit to join Valor.” said Jerry Arteaga, CEO, Valor. “We look forward to supporting Associate’s continued growth and are excited to expand our presence into southern Massachusetts, Martha’s Vineyard, and the surrounding coastal islands.”

Ben Moe, managing partner, Osceola Capital, said, “The acquisition of Associate further strengthens Valor’s physical presence, cash flow generation and operational capabilities across the region in which it operates. It also provides the platform with significant cross-selling opportunities, particularly as it relates to cedar roof and siding preservation services through Valor’s existing Cedar Life division. Beyond Associate, Valor remains well positioned to continue its inorganic growth strategy through acquisitions that both expand its geographic footprint and service offering.”
