How to Find a Reputable Landscaping Company in Miami

Miami, Florida, located on the southern end of the state, is almost always warm and sunny with a good amount of rain. For this reason, plants in the area grow really well, and a nicely maintained landscaped yard can make a house look more valuable by adding curb appeal. If you are looking for a reputable landscaper to help you with your lawn, there are several ways to find one.

Instructions

      Choose landscaped lawns that appeal to you and ask the owners of other homes or commercial buildings for information on who did their landscaping.

    • 2

      Contact builders and ask for the names of landscapers that they use. New construction always needs landscaping, and builders will have several reliable companies on a list to use. Ask if they will give you the addresses of some of the work they have done recently.

      Narrow down the search be eliminating landscapers that you didn't like. Base this on the drive-bys of property.

    • 4

      Go to the Better Business Bureau website and type in the names of the landscape companies that you have obtained. Look for any complaints files, taking into consideration how long the company has been in business. It is better to just look at the number filed within the last six months.

      Contact the Miami Chamber of Commerce for information on the remaining landscapers on your list. Ask if there are any issues that they know of that you should be concerned about. They are located at 1601 Biscayne Boulevard, Ballroom Level, Miami, FL 33132, and the phone number is 305-350-7700.
