United Land Services acquires 4 companies

United Land Services has officially acquired four companies with deals that closed in 2025. 

United Land Services, which ranks No. 16 on Lawn & Landscape's Top 100 list, is backed by Centre Partners and LP First Capital.  Since the United platform was formed in September 2020, United has completed 25 acquisitions and has increased revenue more than six-times while expanding its geographic reach.

The four companies are:

• Wrightsville Beach Landscaping, a Wilmington, North Carolina-based provider of landscape services and complementary addition to United's existing footprint in Charlotte and Raleigh-Durham, North Carolina;
• H&O Grounds, a Baton Rouge and New Orleans, Louisiana-based provider of landscaping maintenance services, marking United's first branch location in Louisiana;
• Custom Tree Surgeons, a Jacksonville, Florida-based provider of tree trimming, tree removal, stump grinding and emergency tree services, providing further depth to United's existing tree services in North Florida; and
• A provider of rust removal system installation and maintenance services across South and Central Florida to commercial customers, expanding United's ancillary irrigation capabilities.

United has a network of more than 30 branches across six states in the Southeast and South-Central United States. Terms of these transactions were not disclosed.

"United has built a highly scalable platform rooted in local expertise and institutional operating discipline," says United's CEO Ray Leach. "Our growth reflects a deliberate strategy focused on partnering with best-in-class operators, expanding service density in attractive markets and delivering consistent, high-quality outcomes for our customers. We are excited to welcome four new businesses into our platform in 2025. With decades of expertise providing landscape, tree and rust removal services, these additions further strengthen United's breadth of service offerings and enhance our ability to serve national, regional and local customers."

"United has grown rapidly with a customer-first mindset by partnering with experienced local operators and investing in scalable infrastructure," says Jeff Bartoli, a senior partner at Centre Partners. "United has a strong foundation to support continued organic growth and future acquisitions while maintaining its commitment to high-quality service. With a strong acquisition pipeline and roadmap for growth, United is well positioned to continue expanding its footprint and service capabilities in 2026 and beyond."
