Do landscaping contractors use native Florida plants?

Yes. Our landscaping contractors prioritize native and Florida-Friendly plant selections that require less irrigation, resist local pests, and thrive without heavy chemical inputs. This approach delivers landscapes that look beautiful year-round while meaningfully reducing your long-term water consumption and maintenance requirements.

Can landscaping help reduce water usage in Florida?

Yes. Landscapes designed with drought-tolerant native plants, strategic mulching, and smart irrigation significantly reduce water consumption. Our team creates designs that meet local water restriction guidelines while maintaining a lush, well-maintained appearance year-round for homeowners across North and South Florida.

What local rules apply to landscaping work in Gainesville?

Inside the City of Gainesville, the city's Building Division works from the Thomas Center, Building B, at 306 NE 6th Avenue, and existing permits can be looked up in its PermitGNV portal. The city's Historic Preservation Board can issue Certificates of Appropriateness for structures in its five historic districts or on the Local Register, and its design guidelines include a section on fences and garden walls. In unincorporated Alachua County, the county's Building Division reviews the work instead. Removing a living tree with a trunk diameter of 20 inches or more from an existing single-family lot needs a city tree removal permit before any work starts, and the city defines a native tree of that size as a Heritage Tree. Our team creates designs that meet local water restriction guidelines.
