Stone Cross Lawn & Landscape & Concrete Collaborative

What Stone Cross Lawn & Landscape & Concrete Collaborative does

Stone Cross Lawn & Landscape & Concrete Collaborative is a locally-owned outdoor services firm founded in 2014 and headquartered in West Des Moines, Iowa, serving residential homeowners and a narrow set of commercial accounts across the Des Moines Metro and broader Central Iowa region, including Polk County, Dallas County, Warren County, Madison County, and recreational-lake geographies such as Sun Valley Lake and Lake Panorama. The company's service portfolio spans landscape design (delivered through 3D visualization), custom pool installation, hardscaping and paver installation, decorative and polished concrete, epoxy coatings, lawn care and maintenance, irrigation, pest control (operating under an Iowa Department of Agriculture 7A pesticide applicator license), and seasonal offerings such as commercial snow removal and holiday light installation. The technology footprint is execution-oriented rather than software-driven: it consists of specialized 3D landscape-design visualization tooling, conventional landscaping equipment (including backhoe assets), and a certified dealer relationship with TEMO Sunrooms that extends the in-house product line into pergolas and pavilions.

Revenue is generated through a blended model combining one-time project-based contracts (landscape construction, pools, hardscaping, concrete installations, holiday light installations) and recurring maintenance and seasonal contracts (lawn care, commercial snow removal). Go-to-market is direct-to-consumer and operates primarily through a phone line (515-330-1110), website-driven free consultation and estimate requests, Google Reviews, customer testimonials, and a bilingual English/Spanish sales interface. Pricing is quote-driven and selectively transparent; for instance, 3D landscape design is offered as a paid engagement priced at $100/hour with a $1,000 project minimum. The business is privately-held, bootstrapped, and operated as a single integrated service company; distribution is captured in-house with the exception of the TEMO Sunrooms partnership, which functions as an authorized channel rather than a franchise or licensing model.

The Des Moines-Central Iowa residential services market is fragmented, locally competitive, and dominated by owner-operators and small multi-crew firms. Stone Cross positions itself on service breadth — landscape, hardscape, concrete, and seasonal services delivered under one umbrella — and on direct ownership tenure in the market since 2014. No public funding events, debt issuances, M&A activity, investor disclosures, headcount, or audited financial statements are available, and the company does not publish financial information.

Emerging players
