New online contractor platform launched

Landscape Direct aims to connect landscape contractors across the industry.

Landscape Direct is an online, review-based platform that aims to connect residential and commercial property owners with local landscape and outdoor professionals in surrounding areas. It only advertises professionals in the landscape and outdoor industry.

Owner and CEO of Landscape Direct, Andrew Fears, noticed the landscaping and outdoor industry didn’t have a platform of its own to promote its professionals. Instead, Fears said the industry had to “piggyback” off the interior professionals’ platforms. Fears started Landscape Direct six months later as a solution for landscape contractors.

Fears said the company’s main goals are to provide a valuable platform to help industry professionals expand their reach and grow their clientele base and make them more accessible to anyone looking for services. The company also wants to provide a proficient platform for users to find desired professionals.

Fears said he wants to make Landscape Direct a primary platform to connect qualified and skilled green industry professionals – including landscape designers, contractors, wholesale nurseries, retail plant nurseries, pool construction contractors, deck builders, stone masons, garden centers, concrete specialists, and grading excavation companies – to property owners across America.
