GreenPal, a Nashville-based app developer that connects homeowners with local, vetted lawn care vendors, has expanded into Chattanooga.
GreenPal launched its web site in 2014 to link homeowners wanting lawn service with available nearby lawn mowers who are pre-screened by the company. Vetted lawn care pros can then bid on their properties based on the Google street and aerial images and any other lawn details the homeowner provides. Homeowners select who they want to work with based on vendor’s ratings, reviews, and price.
Once a vendor has completed the service, the lawn care company sends a time-stamped photo of the completed work. Homeowners then pay via the app and can set up more appointments.
Over the past five years, the business has expanded to major markets from Baltimore on the east coast to Los Angeles on the west coast.
“After successfully launching in 75 other markets, we are excited to help homeowners in Chattanooga find reliable, local lawn care,” said Gene Caballero, one of the co-founders of Greenpal who said the company already has pre-screened more than 25 local lawn care companies for service in Chattanooga. “Nashville has been our top grossing market so far with more than 300 lawn care specialists and landscapers on our app here, but Houston will probably swamp that number this year.”
