🌿 Lawn & Landscaping in Southwest Florida

Hiring lawn & landscaping in Southwest Florida

Southwest Florida lawns grow fast in the summer rainy season and need regular mowing, edging and trimming year-round. Common grasses here include St. Augustine and Bahia, and pests like chinch bugs can cause damage. Many local governments, including in Lee and Collier counties, restrict fertilizer containing nitrogen or phosphorus during the summer rainy season to protect waterways, so ask your provider how they follow local rules. Commercial fertilizer applicators in Florida generally need certification from FDACS. Ask whether the price covers mowing only or also trimming, palm care, weeding, mulch and irrigation checks. HOAs often set lawn standards, so seasonal owners should make sure service continues while they are away. Get a written agreement and confirm the company carries insurance. Use the listings below to compare local companies, and ask each one for a written estimate before you decide.
