Beyond weekly maintenance, RLC plans and installs landscape improvements for condominium and homeowners associations, management companies and commercial property owners. Entrance upgrades, common-area renovations, replacement plantings, screening hedges, sod, irrigation and lighting are scoped in writing, with plants selected for Florida conditions and long-term upkeep, priced as a clear proposal and built by RLC's own installation crew, so your board or ownership group works with one accountable contractor from the first walk-through to the final punch list.
| Installation service | Typical areas | What it solves |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape renovations | Entrances, monument signs, clubhouses, pool areas, building frontages | Tired, overgrown or declining beds replaced with a clean, cohesive planting plan. |
| Replacement plantings | Common-area beds, parking islands, courtyards | Dead or missing shrubs and groundcover filled in so beds read as complete again. |
| Privacy & screening hedges | Perimeters, walls and fences, utility and dumpster enclosures | Visual screening and buffers between the property, roads and neighbors. |
| Palms & trees | Entrances, streetscapes, parking areas | Height, structure and curb appeal at the points residents and visitors see first. |
| Sod installation & replacement | Common lawns, road frontage, areas damaged by construction or irrigation repairs | Bare, thin or damaged turf replaced with healthy, uniform grass. |
| Irrigation | New beds, renovated areas, zones with poor coverage | Water delivered where new and existing plantings need it. |
| Landscape lighting | Entry signs, monuments, walkways, palms and building facades | Nighttime visibility and a finished look after dark. |
| Rock, mulch & bed refreshes | Common-area beds, tree rings, low-maintenance areas | A clean, uniform finish across the property, often timed before annual meetings or peak season. |
| Artificial turf | Pet areas, heavy-shade or hard-to-grow spots, amenity spaces | Green, usable surfaces where natural grass keeps failing. |
Built for board and manager approval
Written scope & proposal
Plant list, quantities, materials and price laid out clearly, so the proposal can go straight into a board packet or owner approval.
Phasing to fit budgets
Larger renovations can be broken into phases, so work can be spread across budget cycles and the highest-visibility areas go first.
Scheduled around residents
Work is planned around resident access, parking and traffic, with clear communication to management about timing.
One company for install & care
New installations can roll into RLC's grounds maintenance program, so the team that installed the landscape is the team that maintains it.
How an installation project works
- Property walk-through. We review the areas that need attention with the manager or board and discuss goals and budget.
- Written proposal. You receive the scope, plant and material list, price and, if needed, a phased plan.
- Approval & installation. Once the board or owner approves, the work is scheduled with management and completed by RLC's installation crew.
- Final walk-through. We review the finished work with management, and the new landscape can move into the maintenance program.
Maintenance specification
The maintenance program includes:
| Service | Frequency | Standard |
|---|---|---|
| Turf mowing | Every visit | All turf areas mowed. |
| Edging | Every visit | Defined edges along curbs, sidewalks, driveways, parking areas and planting bed lines. |
| Line trimming | Every visit | String trimming in areas mowers cannot reach. |
| Blowing | Every visit | All pavement and paver surfaces blown off. |
| Shrub & hedge trimming | Included | Shrubs and hedges trimmed and kept in shape. |

Service calendar
Weekly service
Full maintenance program every week.
Bi-weekly service
Every-other-week service, plus off-season clean-ups.
One monthly price, all year
Grounds maintenance is billed as a fixed, level monthly amount for all twelve months. The difference between weekly growing-season service and bi-weekly off-season service is built into that amount, giving associations and owners a predictable landscape budget with no seasonal price changes.
Off-season clean-ups
Summer growth can push shrubs out of shape and let weeds grow into beds and plant material. From November through March, every property receives at least one clean-up visit, and we strive to complete two, to catch up on that growth before spring.
Plans for properties with heavy weed pressure
Properties where weeds and other plants are constantly trying to grow into shrubs and beds are prioritized, and a maintenance plan is set up to take care of those areas consistently.
Schedule reliability
Properties are serviced on a consistent schedule week in and week out. Occasional delays can be caused by heavy rain, the rare equipment breakdown, or Mother Nature and extreme weather events. When a delay happens, service resumes as soon as possible.
