The Top 44 Landscape Contractors in 2026

Landscape contractors do far more than keep lawns green. They design, build, and maintain the outdoor spaces around homes, businesses, campuses, sports facilities, and other properties—and together, they make up a sizable industry.

In the US, landscaping includes more than 633,000 businesses employing over 1.2 million people, with the industry generating roughly $150 billion in 2023. 

So, which landscape contractors are the biggest?

Two industry rankings offer a good place to start: Lawn & Landscape's Top 100 and Landscape Management's LM150. Both published their 2026 editions based on 2025 revenue, giving us a rare apples-to-apples comparison. We combined both rankings into one list of the 44 largest landscape contractors in 2026, with a special section below dedicated to the fastest-growing companies in the space.

Landscape Contractors to Watch in 2026 

These firms are posting the fastest revenue growth across both rankings, acquiring aggressively, landing new markets, or otherwise pulling away from the pack. 

1. Strata Landscape Services (+460%)

HQ: Westminster, CO | 2025 Revenue: $24M

Strata Landscape Services got its start in 2024 with the acquisition of Southern California-based Verdant Landscaping and has expanded quickly through acquisitions across the Western U.S. Those deals helped Strata grow revenue 460%, making it the fastest-growing landscape company on the 2026 LM150.

The company continued expanding in 2026, acquiring Venco Western and adding coverage across Santa Barbara, Ventura, and Los Angeles counties. With its footprint continuing to grow, CEO Justin Crandall says one of the biggest challenges now is building the due diligence, integration processes, and team needed to bring its growing roster of businesses together.

2. DJ's Landscape Management (+168%) 

HQ: Grand Rapids, MI | 2025 Revenue: $131.7M 

Founded in 1992, DJ's Landscape Management provides year-round commercial landscape management, construction, irrigation, plant health care, and snow and ice services. Alongside organic expansion, acquisitions have also become a major part of the company’s growth strategy. DJ’s reported $131 million in 2025 revenue—a 168% increase—and jumped 20 spots in L&L’s Top 100.

DJ's has continued acquiring founder-led businesses in 2026, expanding its Midwest roots into the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic while building out its four-season approach to commercial grounds management.

3. Hatcher Landscape Partners (+110%)

HQ: Olive Branch, MS | 2025 Revenue: $68.3M 

Hatcher Landscape Partners is one of the newest companies on this list. The platform formed in September 2025 when Michael Hatcher & Associates, a Mid-South commercial landscaper founded in 1986, joined forces with Raleigh-based GreenView Partners. The combination more than doubled the companies' combined revenue and created a larger commercial landscaping operation spanning multiple Southeastern markets.

4. Visterra Landscape Group (+104%)

HQ: Rosemont, IL | 2025 Revenue: $242.3M 

Founded in late 2022, Visterra Landscape Group has quickly built a national commercial landscaping platform through acquisitions. In 2025 alone, it added Cru Cutters in Kentucky, H&M Landscaping in Ohio, and Herzog Landscape Solutions in Massachusetts, among others. The Herzog deal brought nearly 1,000 commercial clients, while H&M extended Visterra's reach across Ohio, western Pennsylvania, and northeast Indiana.

That expansion helped Visterra more than double its revenue to $242.3 million in 2025. Today, its partner companies provide commercial landscape maintenance, enhancements, construction, sweeping, and snow and ice management across a growing multi-state footprint.

5. Landscape Workshop (+49%)

HQ: Mountain Brook, AL | 2025 Revenue: $209.2M 

Landscape Workshop has grown from a single Alabama location founded in 1984 into one of the country's largest commercial landscaping companies serving markets across the Southeast. Its services span year-round grounds maintenance, landscape enhancements and installation, irrigation, and seasonal color.

The company grew revenue 49% in 2025 while continuing to enter new markets, expanding its footprint to 13 states. It also gained new backing from a private equity fund in May 2025, bringing additional capital to support Landscape Workshop’s next phase of expansion.

6. Mariani Premier Group (+33%)

HQ: Lake Bluff, IL | 2025 Revenue: $874M 

Mariani Premier Group is the largest contractor on this watch list, generating $874 million in 2025 revenue. The company traces its roots to Mariani Landscape, founded in 1958, and today operates a national network of high-end landscaping companies focused largely on residential outdoor living. Much of its expansion has come through acquisitions, with the group growing from just seven companies in 2022 to nearly 30 by late 2025.

Rather than fully absorbing the companies it acquires, Mariani allows them to retain their local leadership and expertise while providing shared services, technology, talent resources, and other support at the group level.

7. LMC Landscape Partners (+30%) 

HQ: Plano, TX | 2025 Revenue: $141.7M 

LMC Landscape Partners works with founder- and family-owned commercial landscaping companies across the Sun Belt, providing services ranging from commercial maintenance and enhancements to design/build, irrigation, and landscape construction. The company reached $141.7 million in 2025 revenue, up 30% year over year.

Acquisitions are part of LMC’s growth strategy, but the company also invests in helping its partner businesses grow through standardized reporting, leadership development, and shared processes—all while preserving their local brands and customer relationships.

Characteristics of a Thriving Landscape Contractor

These green giants offer an inside look at what it takes to run an elite, highly productive landscaping construction business. And while each of these contractors is unique, they share a set of defining traits that set them apart from the competition:

• They build for sustainable growth. Whether expanding into new markets, adding services, or growing through acquisition, leading contractors have the operational foundation to take on more work without sacrificing quality.
• They run efficient operations. Managing labor, materials, equipment, schedules, and projects across multiple crews requires tight processes and a clear view of what's happening across the business.
• They stay on top of their finances. Growth requires working capital. Strong billing processes, healthy cash flow, and visibility into outstanding A/R help contractors keep projects moving and make smarter decisions about where to invest next.

For commercial landscape contractors, that financial discipline extends to managing complex billing requirements and getting paid for completed work. Siteline's construction billing software helps contractors streamline billing, stay on top of A/R, and gain better visibility into cash flow as they grow.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is the largest landscape contractor in the US?

BrightView is the largest landscape contractor at $2.67 billion in 2025 revenue, followed by Davey Tree ($1.95B) and TruGreen ($1.56B). 

What's the difference between the Lawn & Landscape Top 100 and the Landscape Management LM150?

Both are annual, revenue-ranked lists of the largest US landscape companies, published by competing trade outlets. They agree closely at the top but sometimes differ further down due to different survey timing, self-reported estimates, and what each counts as landscaping revenue.

Which landscape contractors are growing the fastest?

Among firms large enough to rank in the top 40 contractors in the country, DJ's Landscape Management grew 168% and Visterra Landscape Group 104%, both through acquisitions. Landscape Management’s LM150 list shows an even faster mover further down: Strata Landscape Services grew 460% after four 2025 acquisitions.

How big is the landscaping industry?

The trade overall is estimated at more than $150 billion a year across over 633,000 businesses. Within that, LM150's top 150 firms alone generated a combined $22.34 billion in 2025, up 18% year over year.

Why do the two rankings show different revenue for the same company?

Most gaps come down to methodology. LM150 sometimes uses a projected estimate instead of confirmed revenue, strips out non-green-industry revenue like pest control for some firms, and surveys on a slightly different timeline than Lawn & Landscape.
