A Cut Above the Rest

Family-owned since 1994, A Cut Above the Rest Landscaping serves homeowners, commercial properties, HOAs, condos, and property managers across Orlando and Central Florida. The company handles lawn care, landscaping, irrigation, tree trimming and removal, and land clearing as one coordinated team.

The approach focuses on maintaining curb appeal through weekly lawn care, irrigation repairs, tree work, landscape installation, and land clearing. Clean edges, healthy turf, working sprinklers, trimmed trees, refreshed beds, and cleared access help properties look cared for. Operating Monday–Friday, 8 AM–5 PM, the company coordinates multiple outdoor services so each improvement supports the next piece of the property.

In Florida, landscapers who perform work beyond basic lawn maintenance may need to be licensed as contractors. Start by searching the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation's license database at myfloridalicense.com to verify whether a landscaper holds an active license. The Construction Industry Licensing Board oversees contractor licensing, and you can confirm a contractor's status before hiring.

Some landscape work—particularly irrigation installation, land clearing, or structural improvements—may require permits from the City of Orlando. Contact the city's permitting office or ask your landscaper whether the project needs a permit and a notice of commencement. This protects both you and the contractor.

When hiring, ask whether the company carries workers' compensation insurance (required for contractors in Florida) and confirm what work is included. Discuss whether services are one-time projects or recurring maintenance, and clarify how coordination across multiple trades—lawn care, irrigation, tree work, and clearing—will be handled.
