The Story
Local Roots Landscaping started the way many great Pittsburgh businesses do: two friends with a shared passion and a willingness to outwork everybody else. Founded in 2014, the company has grown into the highest-rated and most-reviewed landscaping firm in Southwestern Pennsylvania, with over 271 reviews and a 4.8-star rating across platforms.
The team specializes in design-build landscaping, meaning they handle everything from the initial concept sketches to the final installation. Their projects range from intimate backyard retreats to large-scale commercial installations, all executed with meticulous attention to detail and a deep understanding of what grows well in Pittsburgh's climate.
Operating from their East Liberty headquarters on Penn Avenue, Local Roots serves residential and commercial clients throughout the greater Pittsburgh area. Their BBB accreditation and consistent five-star reviews reflect a company that takes pride in every project.
What Makes It Pittsburgh
Pittsburgh's terrain is challenging for landscaping -- steep hillsides, clay-heavy soil, and four distinct seasons that each demand different approaches. Local Roots was built for exactly this landscape, and their designs reflect a deep knowledge of what thrives here.
