In Florida, not all landscaping work requires a state license. The Construction Industry Licensing Board regulates contractors whose work involves constructing, repairing, altering, or improving buildings and structures. For many lawn and landscape services—such as mowing, basic landscape maintenance, and minor design—licensure may not apply. However, if your project involves structural changes, hardscaping that qualifies as construction, or other work meeting the board's definition of contracting, a license may be required. Check with your local permitting office or the contractor to clarify whether a license applies to your specific job.

If a landscaper does hold a construction license in Florida, you can verify it through the Department of Business and Professional Regulation's online license search. Contractors are designated as either certified (allowed to work statewide) or registered (allowed only in specific jurisdictions). Before hiring, ask the contractor whether their work requires a license and, if so, request their license number so you can confirm its status.

For projects involving significant landscape changes or new structures, ask your contractor whether a local building permit is needed. Different jurisdictions in Florida have varying permit requirements, and compliance protects both you and the contractor.
