Central Florida Landscaping Services - Longwood's Best Landscapers

We use a multi-step approach tailored to our local soil and climate. First, we apply a high-quality landscape fabric or a thick layer of proper mulch to block sunlight and suppress weed seeds. For existing beds, we perform thorough manual removal before applying fresh mulch. We also recommend and can apply pre-emergent treatments at the right times of year to stop weeds before they start, giving you a cleaner, more manageable landscape.

For durability in our climate, we often recommend and install heavy-duty polymer or metal edging. These materials resist warping from heat and humidity, won't rot, and provide a strong, long-lasting barrier that keeps lawn grass from invading your beds and protects edging from damage by lawn mowers or trimmers. Proper, deep installation is key to preventing heaving from rain, which we ensure on every job.

We can often repair sections of damaged edging, especially if it's a quality material like metal or sturdy plastic. We'll assess the extent of the damage, the condition of the surrounding edging, and the root cause—like soil erosion or impact. If repairs can restore a clean, functional barrier, we'll do that. If the damage is widespread or the material is failing, we'll advise on a replacement with a more durable solution to save you money and hassle in the long run.
