What's broken?

Your estimate lives in a Google Sheet in your personal drive.

And your schedule lives in Jobber. And your photos live in CompanyCam. And the change order from Tuesday hasn't made it into any of them yet.

HubSpotJobberTrelloQuickBooksCompanyCam

You're running an install business on lawn care software.

Jobber's fine for a couple of trucks running routes. At four-plus crews running install work, you're duct-taping spreadsheets together.

5 crews · 4 active jobs

Your software doesn't know what a haul-off is.

Or a running bond pattern, or what it takes to get that mini-ex into the backyard with only one gate. So you eyeball it. And eyeballing it is where margin disappears.

prep · base · delivery · haul-off

You're busier than ever.
And making less per job.

02

Built for projects, not visits.

A project isn't a visit. It's a thread. From the first walkthrough through every revision, every phase, every change order, all the way to the final invoice. Ledge runs that whole thread. Estimates that know what prep, base, and haul-off actually cost. Work orders that update when the homeowner changes their mind. Photos and change orders that land on the project, not the dashboard.

Estimates, change orders, photos, invoices.
One thread.

Nobody re-types anything. Everybody sees the job.

The whole team on one project — owner, foreman, estimator, homeowner. Each sees what they need at the depth they need it. A change order in the field becomes a line on the invoice without anyone re-typing it. A photo from the foreman becomes part of the job file without anyone scrolling through Tuesday's group text to find it.

The foreman sees the work.
The owner sees the margin.

Edgar Galindo, Founder of Ledge

I bought two landscape design-build companies. I ran the Austin shop day-to-day. Together with the Dallas operation under a separate manager, we did around $10M a year across eight crews. Estimating on the tailgate. Juggling phased jobs. Bidding work that lived across four different tools.

I stepped out of the day-to-day to build this full-time.

Ledge is the platform I needed. Built by someone who knows what running a landscape company actually costs. For owners who want to grow without piecing six apps together.
