Frequently Asked Questions
What is included in your standard landscape maintenance for Sarasota homes?
Our standard maintenance program for Sarasota addresses the unique needs of our local climate. It includes regular lawn mowing and edging, shrub pruning and trimming to maintain shape and health, weed control to combat common overgrowth, and a check of your irrigation system for efficiency and leaks. We also provide seasonal fertilization and monitor plants for early signs of disease or pests, which are common issues here, to keep your landscape thriving year-round.
I have a recurring weed problem and a leaky sprinkler head. Can you help?
Absolutely. These are frequent issues we handle for Sarasota homeowners. For weeds, we implement a targeted management plan that may include manual removal, pre-emergent treatments, and adjusting your lawn care routine to promote healthy grass that naturally resists weeds. For irrigation leaks, our team will diagnose the entire system, repair or replace faulty sprinkler heads, and ensure proper coverage and water pressure. Often, fixing leaks and optimizing irrigation is the first step in reducing weed-friendly damp spots.
Do you handle both the design and construction of hardscape projects like patios and retaining walls?
Yes, we offer a complete turnkey service. Our process starts with a consultation to understand your vision and the functional needs of your Sarasota property. From there, we create a practical design and handle all construction and installation, including proper earthmoving, grading, and material selection suited to our local soil and weather. We manage the entire project, from the patio or walkway installation to the construction of necessary retaining walls, ensuring a cohesive and durable result built to last.
