Landscaping & Landscape Design
Landscape design and installation for homes and commercial properties: new beds, plants and shrubs, decorative rock and borders, and low-voltage lighting.
Expert Landscaping Services in Lake County
Golden Lawn Care is a Lake County landscaping company based in Eustis. Besides maintaining grounds, we design and install the landscape itself: new planting beds, shrubs and plants, decorative stone and river rock, bed borders, and low-voltage landscape lighting, for homes and commercial properties.
Because we also maintain properties, we design beds to be maintained. Plants are spaced for the size they will reach, not the size they are in the pot, and rock and mulch are chosen with the upkeep in mind.
Why Plant Choice Matters in a Florida Landscape
Lake County's sandy soil drains fast, summers are hot and wet, and a winter cold snap can still bring frost. A plant that looks good in a garden-center display can struggle in a west-facing bed with heat coming off the driveway. The Florida-Friendly Landscaping principle of right plant, right place is the simplest guide: match each plant to the sun, water and space it will actually get.
Grouping plants by how much water they need matters too. It lets each irrigation zone run for what its plants need, instead of overwatering one bed to keep another alive.

Rock Landscaping: Decorative Stone, River Rock & Borders
Rock beds are a common low-maintenance choice in Central Florida. Done well, they stay put and keep weeds down. Done poorly, they wash into the lawn and grow weeds through the stone.
Low-Voltage Landscape Lighting
We install low-voltage landscape lighting only. A low-voltage system runs from a transformer that plugs into an existing exterior outlet, so no line-voltage wiring is involved. If the spot you need has no outlet, adding one is a job for a licensed electrician first.

Common Questions
Yes. We design and install landscaping for homes as well as HOAs and commercial properties, including in Eustis, Mount Dora and Tavares.
An hourly rate on its own doesn't tell you much, because the total depends on how many hours a crew takes and what materials go in. What you can compare is the price for a defined scope. Our landscaping quotes list the measured beds, the plants and materials, and a price for the whole job, in writing.
Use rock or mulch beds where turf struggles, group plants by water need, choose Florida-Friendly or native shrubs sized for the space so they don't need constant trimming, keep beds few and large, and give them defined borders.
Yes, low-voltage landscape lighting: path lights, up-lights and accent lights on a transformer with a timer or photocell. We don't do line-voltage electrical work. If a new outlet is needed, a licensed electrician installs it first.
