Fort Myers, FL – Landscape Monthly Maintenance: Tips, Importance, & Benefits

Local landscape design pros specialize in continuing care for your space

Effective landscape management goes far beyond regularly fertilizing flowers, planting annuals and trimming shrubs here and there.

Whether you own a home or business, we know you made a large investment into your landscape design and install. If you aren’t properly caring for the landscaping then you are at risk of losing your investment and the curb appeal of your property.

Our company, Peer Landscaping, is proud to be the go-to landscape designer, maintainer and installer for numerous clients in the Southwest Florida area. We’re based right here in Fort Myers and as Florida natives, we can provide our customers with the personal touch and local knowledge to make their property look great in any season.

While we have a division which focuses on designing and installation of brand new landscaping projects for properties of any size, we also offer regular maintenance services for businesses and individuals across the SWFL area.

In this article, we’ll discuss the importance of a regular landscape maintenance plan, tips for creating the ideal plan for your space and the benefits enjoyed by clients who use these services from our company.

It’s important to have a plan in place for maintaining your landscaping, even if you choose to do it yourself rather than partnering with a company like ours. Without regular, and seasonally-appropriate, landscape management, the flora will struggle and your property will not thrive.

Every landscape layout we deal with is different and has its own unique challenges, and our team has the know-how to care for any property. When creating a new landscape maintenance plan, we create action items to be performed monthly which vary each month based on the time of year and the tasks which are needed for the season.

While each month will include some constant items like trimming shrubs, checking plants for fungus or insects, and general property care, a professional knows when to prune, fertilize and plant new flora to maximize the health and appearance of the space.

There are some obvious benefits from working with a landscape professional for monthly maintenance, the clearest being time saved. But letting us take care of your landscape maintenance needs also keeps you out of the Florida heat and weather, and that’s also important for your health.

Not only does working with an expert keep you from performing the physical activity which accompanies landscape management, it saves you from having to learn about the local environment, which plants are in your space, when is best to care for them, etc. Instead our clients leave the labor and expertise to us and the result is a great looking yard all year long.

Another, not as obvious benefit, is cost savings. You might be thinking this is backwards, if you’re paying someone else, how can you save money? But after surveying our clients and comparing their previous expenditures for landscape management to their invoices from us, they actually spend much less by letting us care for their landscape.

Because we have the right equipment and experience, we can work quickly and efficiently and keep your costs down while making your space look great.
