What B&D Contractors does

B&D Contractors (also operating as B&D Landscape Contractors) is a Houston, Texas-based commercial landscape contracting firm founded in 2005, operating with approximately 36 employees and incorporated in Texas. The company delivers turnkey outdoor construction services across four integrated disciplines: landscape installation, hardscape construction, water feature engineering, and general contracting for amenity centers and recreational facilities. Its client base spans commercial real estate developers, public agencies, healthcare systems, universities, corporate campuses, and hospitality operators, concentrated in the Greater Houston area with an emerging foothold in the Austin market. The firm's headquarters is at 10 Stokes St, Houston, TX 77022, with a mailing address at 37 Lyerly St, Houston, TX 77022.

B&D's technical capabilities span large-scale civil landscaping, complex water feature construction (including installations with recirculation systems and pumps rated up to 125 horsepower, as deployed at TMC3 Helix Park), structural hardscape (300,000-pound precast seating walls, 66,000+ square feet of vehicular pavers, 4,000 square feet of imported Italian tile), irrigation and drainage systems, and project management of compressed-schedule, multi-acre public works. The firm operates as a project-based professional services provider with no software, subscription, or recurring maintenance revenue stream disclosed; revenue is generated entirely through contracted construction work priced per project scope.

The go-to-market is enterprise field sales: B&D pursues projects through direct relationships with general contractors (Gilbane, Harvey Builders, Tellepsen, Vaughn Construction, Hoar Construction), landscape architects (OJB, SWA Group, Clark Condon, West 8, TBG Partners, Asakura Robinson), and developers (Howard Hughes Holdings, The Hanover Company, Hines Development, Greystar, PulteGroup). Customer testimonials emphasize the firm's accessibility, turnkey bundling of landscape/hardscape/irrigation scope, and ability to execute compressed schedules. The company is privately held, with no disclosed institutional investors, M&A activity, or funding rounds in the source data.
