Greenscape Companies

What Greenscape Companies does

Greenscape Companies, Inc. is a privately held, family-owned design-build landscape contractor headquartered in Elk River, Minnesota, with a second location in Mapleton, North Dakota. Founded approximately in 1992, the company provides end-to-end residential and commercial landscaping services — including landscape design, hardscapes, outdoor living construction, water features, irrigation systems, landscape lighting, sustainable landscaping, and custom pools — coordinated through a single-contractor model that handles every phase from concept through construction in-house.

Core technical capabilities center on CAD-based landscape design, which produces near-exact 3D renderings for client approval before construction begins. The company also operates GreenTurf Sod Farms, an in-house division that grows premium Kentucky Bluegrass sod, eliminating intermediary cost on a key input. Service work is performed by a dedicated in-house team organized around foremen, designers, irrigation technicians, and a commercial estimator, with warranties and recurring maintenance plans providing limited recurring revenue on top of predominantly project-based fees.

Greenscape's commercial model is project-driven and sales-led, with free consultations, on-site proposals, and quote-based pricing. Typical design fees are $1,000–$3,000 and installations $7,000–$20,000, with pool financing offered through third-party unsecured loans of $5,000–$200,000. The company serves residential homeowners and commercial property managers primarily in the Twin Cities and Fargo markets, with no disclosed enterprise accounts, no external funding, and no public M&A activity.
