Commercial Landscaping Fort Lauderdale for Condos and Businesses

Fort Lauderdale is hard on landscapes. Salt spray burns the ocean side of hedges at condo towers. Fall king tides push water over seawalls and into turf. Sandy soil drains so fast that one missed irrigation cycle shows up in the grass. Commercial landscaping Fort Lauderdale boards and managers can count on has to plan for all 3, and most generic landscaping Fort Lauderdale contracts do not.

Green Image maintains grounds for condo associations, community association managers, commercial property managers and general contractors across Broward. We service around 100 commercial properties in 3 counties, and every Fort Lauderdale account gets a named account manager with a direct line.

Fort Lauderdale Property Types and What Each Needs

• Oceanfront condo towers: salt tolerant plant lists, wind firm palms and palm frond trimming scheduled before hurricane season. For HOA landscaping Fort Lauderdale boards, we also write the scope so it reads cleanly at a board meeting.
• Canal side buildings: the city has about 165 miles of waterways inside its limits, and many associations back onto one. Beds along seawalls take splash and high water, so plant choice and post tide checks are part of the plan.
• Office and retail: buildings along Cypress Creek Road and the retail strips on the main corridors need clean entrances, trimmed parking islands and irrigation that finishes before tenants arrive.
• Industrial sites near the airport and port: heat, dust and truck traffic wear down parking islands. The scope centers on mowing, clear sightlines at driveways and keeping drainage inlets free of debris.
• General contractor projects: installation built to the plan, on the schedule, with plant material chosen for the site rather than the nursery special.

Planning Commercial Landscaping Fort Lauderdale Sites Around Tides and Water Rules

King tides arrive in the fall, and low lying neighborhoods such as Las Olas Isles see water on streets, sidewalks and lawns. When a property sits under tidal water, we walk the affected areas on the next visit, rinse salt from beds by hand where needed and flag any plants that start to decline. Hand watering with a self cancelling nozzle is allowed at any time, which makes that rinse possible outside the normal schedule.

The normal schedule is tight. Broward follows a year round 2 day per week rule: odd numbered addresses water on Wednesday and Saturday, even numbered and no address locations on Thursday and Sunday, and no landscape irrigation runs between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. On sandy soil, every zone has to deliver its water in that short window. We program smart controllers to the correct days before the first visit and run wet checks to confirm each zone covers its area. Where rain or tides leave standing water, stormwater runoff work is quoted as its own project.

After each visit, the manager gets photos of what was done and what needs attention next through CompanyCam. A salt burned hedge or a broken head on a canal bed shows up in that report before an owner calls about it.

In the Monthly Contract, and Priced on Its Own

Every proposal names the scope and the exclusions, so the board sees the full picture before signing.

In the monthly contract:

• Turf: mowing, edging, string trimming and blowing of walks and drives.
• Beds and hedges: weed control and hedge trimming on a set rotation.
• Irrigation: controller checks and wet checks tied to the county watering days.
• Reporting: a documented service summary each month.

Priced on its own:

• Material: mulch, sod and seasonal color.
• Replacements: plants lost to salt, tides or storms.
• Trees: large tree work and storm cleanup.
• Repairs: irrigation repairs beyond routine heads and nozzles, plus drainage projects.

This format is built for community association managers who carry several boards and need every proposal to read the same way.
