Common Questions

A storm knocked down a tree limb. How quickly can you respond for an emergency cleanup?

For HOA compliance or safety emergencies, our crews are dispatched immediately. From our staging area near the TPC Sawgrass Clubhouse, we take Florida State Road A1A directly into Sawgrass Village. Accounting for peak traffic and debris, we maintain a reliable 25-35 minute response window. All initial response vehicles are electric, complying with local noise ordinances for early or late-hour incidents without restriction.

How can I keep my St. Augustine grass alive with only two watering days per week?

Effective irrigation under year-round restrictions requires precision. We install smart Wi-Fi controllers that use real-time evapotranspiration (ET) and weather sensing data. This system automatically adjusts runtime and skips cycles after rain, applying water only when the turf needs it. For St. Augustine varieties like Floratam, this method deepens root systems, improves drought tolerance, and ensures every gallon used falls within the municipal conservation schedule.

Are permeable pavers a better long-term choice than wood decking here?

For longevity and compliance, permeable concrete pavers are superior. Wood decking requires constant sealing against humidity and is susceptible to rot and termites. Pavers have a 30+ year lifespan, require minimal maintenance, and their permeability directly addresses our drainage hazard. Furthermore, they contribute to a non-combustible defensible space, which is a recommended mitigation in our Moderate Fire Wise (WUI Zone 2) rating.

What invasive species should I watch for, and how do I treat them safely?

Remain vigilant for Mexican petunia, skunkvine, and Brazilian pepper. Manual removal is most effective for small infestations. For chemical control, use a targeted herbicide application only during the permitted window outside the summer fertilizer blackout (June 1 - Sept 30). This avoids violating the ordinance prohibiting nitrogen and phosphorus applications, which can feed weeds and harm local waterways during the rainy season.

My yard floods after typical summer rains. What's the best solution?

Flooding is a direct result of our sandy marine soil's poor infiltration rate combined with a high water table. The solution integrates grading and subsurface infrastructure. We recommend installing French drains or dry wells to capture and redirect water. For any new patios or walkways, specify permeable concrete pavers. This system manages runoff on-site and will meet the Ponte Vedra Beach Planning & Development Department's updated standards for stormwater retention.

My lawn seems thin and drains poorly. Is this a common issue in Sawgrass Village?

Yes, this is a predictable condition for Sawgrass Village properties. Homes built around 1989 sit on a 37-year-old landscape with soil composed of sandy marine deposits. This soil type has low organic matter and poor water-holding capacity, which is exacerbated by decades of standard mowing and nutrient leaching. Core aeration and incorporating 2-3 inches of composted organic matter are essential to rebuild soil structure, improve permeability for the high water table, and support healthy turf roots.

I want to reduce mowing and blower noise. Are there good native alternatives to grass?

Transitioning to a native plant palette is an excellent strategy for noise and maintenance reduction. Replace turf areas with Muhly Grass, Coontie, Saw Palmetto, and Beach Sunflower. These species are adapted to our zone 9b conditions, require no supplemental irrigation once established, and need no gas-powered blowers for cleanup. This approach future-proofs your landscape against tightening noise ordinances and supports 2026 biodiversity targets.

What permits and licenses are needed to regrade my 0.35-acre lot?

Any significant grading or earth-moving on a 0.35-acre parcel requires a permit from the Ponte Vedra Beach Planning & Development office to ensure proper water flow and compliance with setback rules. The contractor performing this work must hold a current license from the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation, specifically in the categories of excavation or landscaping. This licensing is mandatory for projects that alter the property's contour and drainage patterns.
