Commercial Landscaping Estimator for Florida Properties & HOAs
Get an accurate commercial landscaping estimate — recurring maintenance contracts or one-time installs — for office parks, retail centers, and HOA common areas, with current 2026 Florida pricing delivered in 24–48 hours.
What This Commercial Landscaping Estimate Covers
Commercial landscaping is priced and structured very differently from residential work — it's typically bought as a recurring maintenance CONTRACT rather than a one-time install, and priced by property type: office parks, retail/shopping centers, HOA and community common areas, and apartment complex grounds. This estimator prices both the recurring contract and one-time install scenarios, distinct from our residential-focused landscaping cost estimator (à la carte line items) and landscaping project cost estimator (whole-yard packages).
Full-service commercial maintenance contracts — mowing, fertilization, weed control, and seasonal cleanup bundled together — typically run $160-$320 per acre per month, while basic mowing-only contracts run $120-$280 per month per acre. On a per-acre basis, full-service packages can run $800-$1,600 per acre monthly for smaller properties, while larger properties (5+ acres) see lower per-acre mowing rates of $25-$60 per acre due to scale efficiency.
If you're pricing a residential yard rather than a commercial property, see our landscaping cost estimator or landscaping project cost estimator for homeowner-focused pricing.
Contract vs. One-Time Install Pricing
Property managers and HOAs typically budget commercial landscaping as an ongoing monthly line item rather than a single project cost. A one-time landscape installation or renovation (new plant beds, irrigation upgrades, hardscape) is priced separately from the recurring maintenance contract that follows it — this estimator covers both so you can budget accurately for each.

Retail & Shopping Centers
