LocalPro didn’t begin in a boardroom, with a franchise license, or backed by investors. It was built in Tampa Bay, Florida in 2012 as a family trade—grounded in hard work, accountability, and pride in solving real problems.
Founded as a small father-and-son operation with just two vans, LocalPro has grown into one of Florida’s fastest-expanding and most trusted home service organizations. What started as a trade quickly became something more: a calling to build a company rooted in values that still matter.
Founder Daniel Richie grew up in this business, learning the work alongside his father and uncle. From the beginning, he understood something that never left him:
“This is the greatest business ever.”
Not because of scale or growth—but because the work matters. It’s about showing up when something goes wrong, rolling up your sleeves, and solving problems that impact real people.
To Daniel, this is America: hard work, personal responsibility, and the ability to build strong teams that can solve problems of any size.
Built to Grow. Built to Last.
Today, LocalPro operates nine locations across Florida, including Clearwater, St. Petersburg, South Tampa, Sarasota, Naples, Fort Lauderdale, Orlando, Jacksonville, and Pasco County. With a fleet of over 50 fully equipped service vans, the company supports residential and commercial projects statewide.
But growth has never meant losing identity.
LocalPro remains family-owned—never corporate, never outsourced.
What sets the company apart is its fully unified structure. In an industry often fragmented by subcontractors and disconnected providers, LocalPro operates entirely under one roof. This eliminates inefficiencies, reduces miscommunication, and ensures a seamless experience from start to finish.
The result is simple: better communication, stronger accountability, and consistently high-quality work.
A Team Built the American Way
LocalPro isn’t just a workforce—it’s a brotherhood and sisterhood built on skill, discipline, and shared pride.
The culture is visible the moment you step inside. Work shirts from hard-fought jobs are displayed like all-star jerseys—not as decoration, but as reminders of craftsmanship, grit, and earned respect.
This is a place where camaraderie is oxygen and workmanship is identity.
Daniel has built an ownership-minded leadership team—young, driven, accountable, and committed to excellence. Many have come through LocalPro’s in-house training and apprenticeship programs, where hard work is exchanged for real opportunity.
Team members aren’t just trained—they’re developed, mentored, and given pathways to grow.
LocalPro is built on the belief that the people who contribute to its success should share in it. That’s why the company actively creates opportunities for advancement into leadership roles—and even ownership.
As part of this commitment, LocalPro established Clearwater Trade School, providing structured, hands-on education alongside real-world field experience. This ensures the next generation of skilled professionals is trained to the highest standard.
Every team is filled with A-players.
Every job is personal.
Every community is represented with pride.
