Landscaping in Orlando is sand, irrigation, and rain that arrives as a wall. St. Augustine on a new lot wilts the week the zones are wrong and fungus the week they run through the storms. Bahia shows up on rougher ground. Oaks on older streets shade the turf to death and then drop leaves into every drain. Retention ponds are not a water feature you ignore. They are mosquitoes, a flood edge, and a place the fertilizer should not be headed. Start with mow, irrigation, drainage, or trees.
Irrigation is mandatory for a green lawn in this sand and dangerous when it is stupid. Heads that hit the stucco, a broken head flooding a bed, and a controller running at noon in July or running through a thunder week all create problems the mower cannot fix. Reclaimed water in many neighborhoods is for the lawn, not the kitchen tap, and the two must not be tied together. Say whether you are repairing, adding drip, or replacing a controller you do not trust. Grade is the partner conversation. Water that sits at the slab after a storm is how the house gets wet.
Tree work here is oaks over roofs and limbs into the service drop, plus roots you will meet again in the plumbing call. Do not expect a trim to be a removal, and say whether the stump and the debris leave. Palms are present and need their own cut. A thinned-out crown is a poorer idea in a wind than people think, even inland. Severe storms still put limbs through shingles.
Chinch bugs and fungal patches mimic a bad mow. Mention them, and do not expect the lawn visit to diagnose termites. If a claim is open, limbs on the ground, a crushed roof, and pond water in the house are three descriptions, not one. Wind and flood stay different. Say how the yard behaves an hour after the rain stops. Call the number on this page.
