What HEPP does

HEPP GmbH is a privately held, family-owned German construction services company headquartered in Bad Soden-Salmünster, Hesse, founded in 1974 by brothers Reinhold and Roland Hepp. The company specializes in scaffolding construction (Gerüstbau), facade and exterior plastering (Fassaden und Außenputz) including thermal insulation composite systems (Vollwärmeschutz), interior finishing (Innenausbau/Trockenbau), painting services (Malerarbeiten), and building modernization (Modernisierung). Its integrated offering combines scaffolding and plastering as a unified service line — a structure explicitly designed for the prefabricated house industry.

The company serves primarily well-known prefabricated house manufacturers (namhafte Fertighaushersteller) across Germany as a long-term strategic partner, with a secondary segment in single- and two-family residential construction and renovation. It operates 9 regional offices (Bad Soden-Salmünster, Ulm, Sulz, Gambach, Mönchengladbach, Wechselburg, Hildesheim, Berlin, Nonnweiler) plus a Michelfeld site, and runs a dedicated fleet of 80+ vehicles, enabling nationwide deployment. Headcount is approximately 175 employees plus around 50 subcontractor partners, organized across formal departments for disposition, fleet management, purchasing, construction management, and quality assurance. Cumulative track record includes 77,000+ single/two-family houses completed with scaffolding and exterior plastering, and 7,500+ expansion houses delivered from raw construction to partially turnkey finish.

The business model is project-based B2B service delivery: revenue is generated through one-time, quote-based contracts for construction services, with no publicly disclosed pricing or subscription/recurring revenue model. Go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales to construction OEMs, supported by a company website, Facebook presence, and earned media in regional press. The company is currently managed by Marco Hepp (Geschäftsführer, qualified Master Painter and Betriebswirt HWK) and holds an AMS-Bau occupational safety certification renewed in January 2026. No external investors, subsidiaries, or international operations are present.
