Groundworks Named to Inc. 5000 List of America's Fastest-Growing Private Companies

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va., Aug. 24, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Groundworks Companies has been named to the 37th Annual Inc. 5000 list of America's fastest-growing companies. Groundworks joins a prestigious list of businesses that have gone on to become household names including Microsoft, Domino's Pizza, Dell, and Timberland among others.

"This recognition of Groundworks' tremendous growth and success represents our entire team's extraordinary dedication to doing the right thing for our customers. I am both honored and humbled to lead such an exceptional team of people," said Matt Malone, Groundworks CEO.

"Groundworks has experienced phenomenal growth not typical in the home services industry," Malone continued. "We've not only repaired nearly 100,000 homes for consumers but have also helped our employees grow personally and professionally. The work we do can be complicated, but our mission remains simple – to repair, protect and improve our customers' greatest asset - their home."

Nationally, the construction segment represented less than 7% of the companies to make the list and Groundworks was the only company in the segment to be named to the list in the Hampton Roads region.

As a second time nominee, Groundworks continues its rapid growth as the largest privately-owned foundation services company in the nation. From its humble beginnings with one home-based office, the company now operates from eleven branch locations serving seven states. The company plans to add several more branch locations by the end of 2018.
