Your commercial signage is one of the hardest-working features on your property – and you don't even pay it a salary. Jokes aside, your sign does a lot of the heavy lifting for you, so it's important to take care of it.

Whether it's a monument sign at the entrance to a retail center, a community sign for a multifamily property, or branding at a corporate campus, good signage helps visitors navigate your property. But more importantly, it forms an immediate first impression, too.

You've heard the expression that a sign or a logo is like a brand's handshake? They say that for a reason. The sign on your property makes the first impact – and it should be a positive one.

When you live in Central Florida, you learn to expect a little rain – okay, a lot of rain. Between daily afternoon storms and long wet seasons, our landscapes are constantly challenged by water buildup and poor drainage.

Driveways turn into puddles, patios stay slick, and lawns struggle to stay healthy when water has nowhere to go.

That’s where permeable pavers come in.

You love your landscaping, mostly. There’s just this one problem area. 
Let us guess:

1. Steep slope?
2. Soggy area where water won’t drain?
3. A shady patch where nothing will grow?

Landscape design can answer problems in the landscape - even in the most difficult areas that never seem to clean up.

Should you plant when it’s cool? Sunny? Hot? Rainy? In April? August? December?

When you’re planting in Central Florida, you could pick any of the above.

If you’re any kind of a handy person, you know a drip is usually bad news. Leaky faucet. Leaky roof. Busted toilet. Grab the tool box. Ugh.

Not this time. Installing a drip irrigation system causes drips. But it’s a good thing — a great way to water your plants.
