About Wekiva Springs

Wekiva Springs is one of Apopka's most desirable areas, known for its proximity to Wekiwa Springs State Park and the natural beauty of the Wekiva River basin. Properties here range from established homes to newer developments, many featuring larger lots with lush landscaping. Residents value the area's natural setting and expect lawn care that complements the surrounding environment. We provide premium maintenance that keeps Wekiva Springs properties looking beautiful while respecting the area's natural character.

What Wekiva Springs lawns are like

Wekiva Springs sits at the edge of one of Central Florida's most protected natural areas, and its lawns are bigger, lusher and more tree-lined than a typical subdivision's. Lots often run past a quarter acre on Apopka's rolling terrain, with established homes under mature canopy on the older streets and newer developments where Zoysia has been installed alongside the usual St. Augustine. The soil is sandy and drains fast, which is exactly why what goes on a lawn here matters: it moves through the ground toward the springs.

We mow St. Augustine at 3.5 to 4 inches and Zoysia a little lower and with a sharper blade, since Zoysia shows a ragged cut more than anything else. Under the canopy we raise the deck. On feeding and weed control we run slow-release products, keep applications well inside Orange County's June through September restrictions, and avoid anything that is not needed; a thick, properly mowed lawn needs less help than people expect. Larger lots get a crew sized to cover them, with the edging and bed work concentrated where it shows.

What matters most for a Wekiva Springs lawn

The springshed

Sandy soil carries whatever you apply down toward the aquifer that feeds the springs. Slow-release products, minimal applications and strict observance of the summer restrictions are how we keep a Wekiva Springs lawn green without adding to the problem.

Two grasses, two programs

St. Augustine and Zoysia want different heights and different blade care, and Zoysia is common in the newer sections. We set the deck for the grass in front of us rather than running one height across the neighborhood.

Big lots under canopy

Larger properties with mature trees mean more shade, more leaf drop and more edge. We quote on measured turf area, mow high under the trees, and recommend a seasonal cleanup for the late-winter drop.

What lawn care costs in Wekiva Springs

Wekiva Springs lots at or under a quarter acre are priced at our published rates: $45 weekly, $52 every 10 days, $55 bi-weekly. Many properties here are larger and are quoted on measured turf area after a site visit. Fertilization and weed control from $62 per month is popular in the neighborhood, and we build it as a minimal, slow-release program appropriate to the springshed rather than a heavy schedule.

Wekiva Springs Lawn Care FAQ

Are you experienced with larger Wekiva Springs properties?

Yes! Many Wekiva Springs properties have larger lots. We have the equipment and crew to handle properties of all sizes efficiently.

Do you use environmentally friendly practices?

We follow best practices for properties near natural areas, using appropriate products and techniques that are effective for your lawn while being mindful of the surrounding ecosystem.

What grass types are common in Wekiva Springs?

St. Augustine is the most popular, with some Zoysia in newer developments. We're experienced with all Florida grass types and adjust our care accordingly.

I would rather use as few chemicals as possible this close to the springs. Can you work that way?

Yes, and we prefer it. Correct mowing height, watering on the county days and a slow-release feeding program do most of the work. We only recommend a weed or pest treatment when there is an actual problem, and never during the summer restriction.

My builder put in Zoysia. Do you mow it differently from my neighbor's St. Augustine?

Yes. Zoysia is cut lower than St. Augustine and needs a sharp blade to avoid a frayed, brown-tipped look. We set the deck for your grass, not the street's.
