Best Landscapers in Tallahassee, FL

Look for a licensed landscaper (irrigation contractors require state licensing in most states) with strong Google ratings from clients with comparable property sizes and styles. Ask to see a portfolio of completed projects and verify they carry liability insurance and workers' compensation.

Lawn maintenance (mowing, edging, cleanup) runs $50–$150 per visit for a typical residential lot. Landscape design and full installation costs $3,000–$15,000+. Irrigation system installation is $3,500–$9,000. Mulching a typical yard runs $300–$800.

A standard lawn care visit takes 1–3 hours. A full landscape bed installation or sod project takes 1–3 days. Large landscape design-and-build projects take 1–4 weeks. Irrigation systems are typically installed in 1–3 days.

Ask about their licensing (particularly for irrigation), insurance coverage, how they handle damage to plants or irrigation systems, whether they provide a written maintenance schedule, and who specifically will be on-site for the work.

All listings are sourced from Google Business Profiles and ranked by real Google ratings and review volume. No payment changes rankings. Verify licensing (especially for irrigation) and insurance directly before hiring.

Document damage with photos and contact the company in writing requesting repair or remediation. File with your state contractor licensing board if licensing requirements were violated. For ongoing maintenance contracts, review cancellation terms before terminating.
