Case Study: Local Roots Landscaping scales hardscape growth and cuts estimating time with LMN by Granum

Local Roots Landscaping cuts estimating time by 90% and scales to $8M+ with LMN

Local Roots Landscaping, a Pittsburgh-based hardscape design and build company, faced significant challenges scaling beyond $1.5 million in revenue. The founders were overwhelmed by manual estimating, a lack of financial clarity, and operational inefficiencies, leading to leadership burnout. They turned to vendor LMN by Granum for a solution using its Estimating, Budgeting, Job Costing, Scheduling, and Timesheets products to gain control and build scalable systems.

By implementing LMN's software, Local Roots established a data-driven strategy. They used LMN's budgeting module for strategic planning and template-driven estimating to slash bid creation time by 90%. This provided the clarity needed to scale operations confidently. The results were substantial, as the company grew to over $8 million in annual revenue, empowered a 65-person team with data, and elevated its market position to focus on high-end projects.
