New-Lawn Care for Canvas at Lake Nona

Establishment care and sharp, modern edging for Canvas at Lake Nona's new-construction lawns, matched to the community's contemporary home designs and the first-year needs of freshly laid sod.

About Canvas

Canvas is one of Lake Nona's newest and most innovative communities, featuring modern home designs, smart technology, and a focus on healthy living. As a newer development, many Canvas properties have recently installed landscapes that need proper establishment care. Our team provides the consistent, professional maintenance that helps new lawns thrive while keeping your modern home's exterior looking as polished as its interior.

What Canvas lawns are like

Canvas is one of Lake Nona's newest communities, and almost every lawn we care for here is in its first or second year. That means St. Augustine sod on freshly graded fill, builder irrigation set for establishment, and beds that were planted last season and have not yet filled in. Lots are standard subdivision size, and the homes are contemporary: clean lines, minimal ornament, a lot of hardscape. A lawn in Canvas is supposed to look as crisp as the architecture.

The first year is about getting the sod rooted and even. We hold off mowing until it resists a tug, take the first cuts high, and keep a close eye on irrigation coverage as the fill settles and low spots appear. Once established, Canvas lawns go on the standard weekly cadence at 3.5 to 4 inches. The part that stays different is the finish: on a modern home, the edge along a concrete walk or a raised planter is a design line, and we cut it straight and keep it clean because a wavy edge looks worse against clean architecture than it would against a traditional house.

What matters most for a Canvas lawn

First-year sod

New sod dries out fast on graded fill and roots unevenly. We time the first mow to the sod, cut high through the first summer, and flag irrigation zones that are not covering before a dry stripe becomes a dead one.

Edges as design lines

Contemporary homes make crooked edging obvious. We treat the line along walks, planters and driveway as part of the house's geometry and keep it straight and vertical every visit.

Beds still filling in

Young plantings leave bare mulch that weeds colonize and that shows every clipping. We blow beds clean each visit and can top up mulch so the beds look intentional while the plants grow in.

What lawn care costs in Canvas

Canvas lots are standard bracket: $45 per visit weekly, $52 every 10 days, $55 bi-weekly. There is no surcharge for new-sod establishment care; we start mowing when the sod is ready. Most homeowners here go weekly in season or choose the Seasonal Basic plan at $164 per month, and mulch installation is a popular add-on while the beds mature.
