AdvanceScape provides full-service hardscaping and landscaping solutions across Minneola, Clermont, Groveland, Mascotte, Winter Garden, and all of South Lake County. Our core services include custom brick paver patios, retaining walls, fire pits, full 3D landscape design, sod and soil replacement, low-maintenance artificial turf installation, irrigation repair and line extensions, mulch and rock bed refresh, and ongoing commercial or HOA grounds maintenance.
Project costs vary depending on square footage, materials selected, site preparation, and design complexity. Minor softscaping, re-sodding, or irrigation adjustments typically range lower, while custom brick paver patios and full outdoor living makeovers require higher investments. We provide detailed, itemized estimates so you know exactly what to expect, and we offer flexible financing options to make your dream outdoor project affordable on any budget.
For Central Florida residential and commercial properties, we recommend a bi-weekly or weekly maintenance schedule depending on the season. During our peak summer growing season in South Lake County, weekly lawn mowing, edging, and weed control keep turf healthy and prevent overgrowth. In cooler winter months, bi-weekly visits are usually sufficient. Seasonal tasks like bed mulching, tree trimming, and irrigation checkups should be performed 2–4 times a year.
Yes, every project begins with a tailored design approach. We create custom landscape and hardscape master plans designed specifically for your property’s layout, soil conditions, and sun exposure in Central Florida. Whether you are aiming for a modern paver patio layout, a low-maintenance tropical garden, or a complete turf overhaul, our team designs functional outdoor spaces that enhance your curb appeal and long-term property value.
In South Lake County, the best time to water your lawn and plants is early in the morning between 4:00 AM and 8:00 AM. Watering early minimizes evaporation from the Florida sun and prevents fungal growth caused by nighttime dampness. Established sod like St. Augustine or Zoysia typically requires 1 to 1.5 inches of water per week split across 2 scheduled days, following local Lake and Orange County watering restrictions. Whether you need a complete new irrigation system installation designed for your property or an audit of your existing smart controllers, AdvanceScape ensures your lawn gets optimal, efficient coverage year-round.
Yes, AdvanceScape provides full-service commercial landscaping and sub-contracting solutions across Minneola, Clermont, Groveland, Montverde, Winter Garden, and South Lake County. We partner directly with HOA boards and property managers for ongoing grounds maintenance, as well as custom home builders, pool contractors, and underground plumbing/utility repair companies. Whether you need full neighborhood groundskeeping, new-construction landscape installs, or complete sod, soil, and irrigation restoration after utility or pool excavation, our licensed and insured team delivers reliable, turn-key site remediation.
