Caring for Longwood's established lawns and mature tree canopy since day one
Longwood is one of Seminole County's most established communities — home to the historic district, the famous 3,500-year-old "Senator" cypress legacy at Big Tree Park, and neighborhoods shaded by some of Central Florida's most impressive oak canopy. That maturity is what makes Longwood beautiful, and it's also what makes its lawns genuinely challenging: deep shade, root competition, and constant leaf litter.
Total Maintenance Landscaping LLC has extensive experience with exactly these conditions. We provide complete lawn and landscape services across Longwood: mowing and edging, mulching, tree and shrub trimming, irrigation installation and repair, fencing, pavers, and landscape renovations. From the large wooded lots of Sweetwater Oaks and Sabal Point to homes near the historic district, we adapt our approach to each property.
If you've struggled to keep grass alive under mature oaks, or your established landscape needs renewal after years of growth, we can help — with realistic recommendations, not one-size-fits-all answers. Call (321) 480-1051 for a free estimate.

FAQ
Dense oak shade is the #1 lawn challenge in Longwood. We use shade-tolerant St. Augustine varieties, raise mowing height to reduce stress, manage leaf litter promptly, and where turf simply can't survive, we recommend attractive ground covers or expanded mulched beds.
Yes. We regularly maintain large, wooded properties in Longwood's established communities. We quote based on actual maintained area and the level of detail work involved, and we have the equipment to handle bigger lots efficiently.
Absolutely. Many Longwood landscapes were planted decades ago and have outgrown their design. We offer rejuvenation pruning, selective removal, bed redesign, fresh mulch, and replanting with Florida-friendly varieties that fit the existing canopy.
Under heavy oak canopy, monthly cleanup is typical year-round, with extra visits during spring leaf drop (February–April for live oaks). Our maintenance plans for wooded properties include regular debris removal so it never piles up.
